You have some protection. Take a booster dose. It is likely that we will need to take yearly shots for Covid like we do for flu. Wish you good health!

Although the Moderna version of the COVID-19 vaccine seems to have a longer lasting protection than either the Pfizer or the JP vaccine, nine months after the booster may see your immunity decrease. Obtain a serum antibody test for COVID-19 to provide some information about the current protective effect. The next version of vaccine is geared to protect against BA.4 and BA.5 variants.
