It’s unfair to take a 3rd shot when there is a worldwide shortage of vaccines

As long as my antibodies are high I see no benefit in taking anything beyond what I already got.
How often you going to get tested for antibodies?

Will they offer a third shot to someone that won't take the second?

Have you discussed this with a medical expert ? Why’d you get the first ?

I'm honestly shocked that 7 people actually voted for the third option.

Especially when compared to the 5 that chose the last option. Ridiculous.

I already got my third shot a week ago.

Next question, please?

Have you discussed this with a medical expert ? Why’d you get the first ?

I got one dose because my antibody levels were borderline and I couldn't afford to go to Israel and have to quarantine. It worked for my purposes, and my antibodies have remained very high through several subsequent tests. My Dr.'s office called me to get the second dose 30 days after I got the first, and I told them I'm not coming. What possible benefit can a vaccine give me if my antibodies are above the high range of an antibody test?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Fair enough (although my original point still stands)

While it may not be enough of a reason to take it, it is not so hard to think of possible benefits. Of the bat I can think of a possibility that it will make them last longer and maybe even be permanent.

Would you take a 4th shot if it was offered to you?
