It has not been established yet just how short or long term these vaccines will protect us. Some reports say at least 6 months so far and other reports say we may never need a booster. That leaves somewhere in between but no one really knows as of yet.

You mention "partial immunity". The initial trial efficacy of these mRNA vaccines was pretty darn high and they remain pretty darn high in real life efficiency. Did you expect 100%? I didn't.
