Sorry! Don't read the Atlantic for ethical reasons. But probably a staff writer plagiarising.
Angélique is more reliable.

Covix Booster is a bit of an aleatory margin call. Qualification 18th November based on December 14th minimum modification.
Then plus 8 weeks gives final limit of Thursday 13th January.
But on my TV they keep rabitting on about a minimum 5 months and maximum limit 7 months.
That would be the 18th January.

A check with the Amélie tool gives a latest date on the 18th January 22.

Vous êtes concerné(e) par la dose de rappel.
Vous devez faire votre dose de rappel dès maintenant.

À défaut, votre passe sanitaire ne sera plus valide après le : 18/01/2022

Just had my 3rd dose this evening at work - there were a couple of doses remaining and although we'd planned to have our jabs next week, we had a "pleasant" surprise on being offered them today instead !
Whilst this week we're doing Pfizer as long as stocks last, it's likely that next week will be Moderna. Some people won't be happy ....

Actually heterologous boosting is regarded favourably in continental europe. I'll be getting moderna.

Received my Booster yesterday - Moderna, after first two were AZ. Didn't want Pfizer. Very sore arm, which contributed to a painful night of not much sleep, as I tend to sleep on that side. Ready with the Paracetamol if need be today - and no work commitments just in case.

Are AZ actually being used as Boosters much?

I was guided by the advice contained in URL penultimate post above.
Quote:
Their endorsement came a day after a major study on Monday found that a first dose of AstraZeneca or Pfizer-BioNTech shots followed by a Moderna vaccine nine weeks later induced a better immune response.

Got our Pfizers yesterday, though the document does not mention the Yanks, only Biontek.

@Bayleaf certainly in the Uk ,AZ is only being used rarely (if at all )as a booster ,it was decided that Pfizer or Moderna gave a better performance
