Right now, trying to boost your immune system with an additional dose of Covid-19 vaccine after a J&J shot is not recommended. The vaccine makers are studying whether that needs to change.

"Come June, I started to get nervous about this Delta variant spreading and had some travel plans," said Gallagher, a clinical professor at Temple University School of Pharmacy.So, Gallagher decided to get a dose of a different mRNA vaccine, even though he was already considered fully protected with his single dose of the J&J vaccine. Once word got around that he got an extra dose, he started hearing from many others who had done the same.

Schaffner said there is no real data to show that an additional dose would be harmful, so if patients are asking about an additional dose, it may be possible that doctors are figuring that into their calculations in counseling patients."The question not only in the patient's mind, but in the doctors mind is, 'well, if it's not going to hurt? What harm could it do?'" Schaffner said.

Shocking how little everyone knows about this. Maybe a month ago people were gagged and fired because CNN highlited the spreading of mis information. CNN was spreading it themselves.
