    To be fair, it’s kind of challenging when you’re supposed to wait six months following your last COVID infection…

        I’m sure it varies across jurisdictions, but I copied and pasted it from the MB website.

        In Saskatchewan you should wait 6 months, but it needs to be at least 3 months.

        That’s what they’re saying in my province, at any rate:

        Beginning in the fall of 2023 for those previously vaccinated against COVID-19, individuals aged 6 months and older are recommended to receive one dose of the new XBB.1.5 formulation of COVID-19 vaccine if it has been at least 6 months from the previous COVID-19 vaccine dose or known SARS-CoV-2 infection (which ever is later).
