The J&J vaccine in the US was evaluated at 67% efficacy, vs ~95% for the mRNA counterparts.
Are those people then supposed to take the mRNA vaccines in addition, if not, why are people with natural immunity required to get an additional vaccine (among them J&J)?

However, for options like Sinovac it may be a different story.
