Two weeks after a third booster for my 60+ mother, can she get covid right now if exposed? imagining immune system still active and attentive?

Yes, she can still catch COVID, but being vaxxed and boosted she most likely not have any life threatening issues.

Anyone can get COVID after a booster but the symptoms will be mild unless there is underlying medical problems. Immune system is active and attentive to new infection.
