Can somebody explain why (Alberta at least) the pharmacies say 3 months between infection and booster?
Why are they still using a timeline from the original Vax/variants???
(And I'm going to wait a month, and lie when I book for early Dec. Not being "unvaxxed" at Christmas)

@NapsAndSarcasm I’m not sure but my primary care doctor is recommending “at least 2 months” post-infection for the bivalent booster unless you’re high risk.

@SamaraR and that's the problem. The new variants can re-infect in a month (less, according to one report I saw a couple of weeks ago)...
I can't think that 2 infections in 2 months with the last shot 10 months ago can be remotely safe

@NapsAndSarcasm yeah, I think that’s what I haven’t quite understood—so if I had omicron in late September, I could be reinfected that quickly? I read something somewhere (maybe CDC)—when I was trying to figure out when to get boosted—about how waiting 3-4 months after infection maximized immune response. But I don’t remember exactly where I saw this (though I know it was somewhere legit) so I don’t want to inadvertently spread bad info.
