    Don't they have a better vaccine by now? If they don't then I guess the caution is more understandable, but I though their vaccines aren't THAT much worse than Pfizer & friends.

      Pfizer just updated their booster for the BA* variants. Bad Covid policy will keep this a moving target for the rest of our species history.

      There's a nasally administered vaccine that provides mucosal immunity (no transmission) but the U.S. refuses to fund it.

      I think there are two versions internationally available, I want to say China and Cuba but I'm not sure off the top of my head.

      So yes, there is a better vaccine available. Plus there's the weird rumor the military has a universal vaccine but I never saw any hard details on that.
