Antibody tests and vaccinations in transplants

I had zero impact from the first , second and fourth shot. After the third shot, I felt a little, sort of like a low level cold ( zero fever) and I just stayed home. After the third shot is when antibodies were first detected. I would also recommend you watch the JH video updates and the type of antibody test they use. And the French approval of the third shot. We all know our FDA moves slowly as they did not include immunocompromised people in heir initial studies.
So who knows if they are researching it now, or relying on others. So they place the risk on the patients..

@benlam11 - Good morning. J&J is undergoing some problems with the side effects of their vaccine so I wouldn't look to them for advice, unless you had the J&J vaccine. The J&J vaccine is quite different than the other mRNA vaccines: The ultimate difference is the way the instructions are delivered. The Moderna and Pfizer vaccines use mRNA technology, and the Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses the more traditional virus-based technology. mRNA is essentially a little piece of code that the vaccine delivers to your cells.
Humans have always been guinea pigs for vaccines for humans, but that doesn't assure constant results. We, humans, are just too complicated!
Have you read this?
https://directorsblog.nih.gov/2021/07/13/mrna-vaccines-could-pack-more-persistent-punch-against-covid-19-than-thought/You say that the medical field places the risk with the patient. In a sense that is true, however, from the quick pace of the virus and its variants killing people something had to be done. Should the FDA do something different?
What might that have done?
