What are your thoughts on getting an additional booster that's of the opposite technology as your vaccine? For example, if you got the J&J vaccine & booster, getting the mRNA booster. Would we expect that to confer any benefits?
Random "helpful suggestion," magnitude likely smaller than "get boosted" by substantial degree -- it still amazes me how many folks who stack all their other protection bonuses as much as possible use cloth masks instead of KN95s, and how many folks don't have tests at home despite availability via Walmart, etc.
It may be worthwhile to consider add a "I'm already vaxxed and boosted, how can I level up" section in future summaries -- even if you see it explicitly as lower ROI, it may be useful to give folks a place to put their stress energy that does have some marginal benefit, instead of them putting it in counterproductive places.
Is it really the case that WHO statement regarding reinfections is based on any non-public information, though?
Perhaps they are just inferring it from combination of things we already know, namely, 1) omicron seems to be spreading rapidly in South Africa, dominating delta, 2) lots of people in South Africa had covid, most of them "off the books", and 4) genetic makeup of omicron looks like something that could evade immunity.

Do you take bets on any of your predictions?
