MODERATORS
The numbers are still in favour of getting vaccinated. Complications from the vaccine are as close to zero as any medical procedure could be. The complications from raw-dogging COVID are far greater, regardless of your cohort. Turning a life-threatening infection into an inconvenience is what the vaccines do. If your concern is minimizing total risk, getting a COVID booster each year with your flu vaccine is the way to go.
The best informed benefit/risk of subsequnt boostes is cohort based.

If you are unsure what's the best choice for you, you should chat with your doctor.

Sorry about that, works fine for me. Thanks for trying to look i guess.
Its Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) advice on COVID boosters. Your can probably find with duckduckgo.
I've got a lot of trust for them, as they were always very clear with their recommendations and reasons during the pandemic.
