Default FDA authorized booster shots for the Moderna and J& J vaccines

"The FDA authorized booster shots for the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines for some populations Wednesday.
Moderna's vaccine can be administered at least six months after the second dose for people ages 65 and up and those ages 18 through 64 who either are at high risk of severe COVID-19 infection or have occupational exposure to the virus, the FDA said.
The J&J booster can be administered at least two months after the single-dose shot to those ages 18 and up, the agency said.
The FDA, which authorized Pfizer's booster dose last month, also said it will allow people to mix booster doses.

Kind of interesting that they will allow mixing the vaccine shots. I had heard that they were telling people that it wouldn't matter if the second shot was of a different brand. Kind of makes one wonder if they are really that good, if it does not matter if they are mixed. Not saying they are not good, but just seems weird. I never claimed to be a medical professional so I have no idea how this stuff works. I have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express, if that means anything.
