News with COVID vaccination

Experts say there’s no such thing as being ‘fully vaccinated’ for COVID anymore. This term used to apply to someone who’s received two shots of the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer’s or Moderna’s vaccine). 

But the effectiveness of these vaccines wanes off after a few months, so health authorities continue to offer booster shots as protection against COVID. Currently, people in western countries who have had their second booster (four jabs in total) are considered ‘up-to-date’ with their vaccination.

About one-tenth of Canadians (ie, 300,000) continue to have COVID symptoms 3 months after their infection. These long-haulers have symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, and/or a distorted sense of smell.
