Here they're already talking about the need for booster shots, 6 months after the 2 doses

"Emerging data to date shows good immunity in most people out to 9 months after receiving 2 vaccine doses," Canada's public health agency said in a statement.

No clue what 'good immunity' means, or where they get the data that one would be needed. Vaccines aren't even out 9 months yet afaik. Maybe they're not needed, maybe just more confusion.

Well, a third shot would generate 50% additional revenue for Pfizer & Co.

Of course they recommend a third shot... maybe even a fourth just to be sure.
