A booster strengthens personal immunity levels, Al-Abdulaali said in a tweet, noting that the second vaccine dose enhances immunization, being sufficient for resisting the pandemic and its variants.

 

Moreover, antibody levels begin to wane after six months. Therefore, a booster is necessary, Al-Abdulaali concluded.
