| LjL | Spec_, oh yeah you did | 19:56 |
| LjL | Spec_, i've not stayed very up to date... there were some indications Moderna had more myocarditis risk with the second shot than Pfizer, but other indications that they were similar, and neither of those was about the booster. in the booster, Moderna is using half dose, but the earlier studies were on a full dose, so they can't be relied upon. the later studies... i've really not paid attention, but i think (unsure) Moderna seemed slightly more effective anyway, | 19:59 |
| LjL | or at least created more antibodies, despite the dose | 19:59 |

| Spec_ | whenever, but i should decide/schedule on the sooner side i think | 20:23 |
| de-facto | i would go for some mRNA if i had to booster (after two doses), so either 50µg mRNA-1273 or 30µg BNT162b2 | 20:28 |
