Should I go get the bivalent vaccine from pfizer since my last one was in August 2022 and was monovalent. I never got the covid?

Question

Hello, following the press conference of the public health last Thursday concerning the recall of the covid vaccine, I am confused. I am a healthy 24 year old male (tourette's syndrome, not medicated), I have had 4 doses of the pfizer monovalent vaccine, my last one was 6 months ago. I have never had covid. Thank you for helping me decide.

Hello, The bivalent vaccines are indicated as booster doses, which it sounds like for you, regardless of whether you have had COVID in the past. That being written, it is the bivalent vaccines that are recommended for any booster dose at the time of writing, but this will depend on the inventory available at your appointment.
