It seems like there should have been a simple solution.

But, until recently, there’s been nothing official at all about boosters for the J&J vaccine, which comes in a single dose and offers less protection that the other options. There hasn’t even been guidance on what immunocompromised people who got the single-dose vaccine should do in terms of an additional shot.

The company unveiled in a press release that giving a second dose of the vaccine two months after the first shot provides 94 percent protection against moderate or severe COVID symptoms and 100 percent protection against severe-to-critical symptoms. If the second shot is given six months after the first one, the protection is even higher, said the company.
