my sister has COVID for the 2nd time in under 30 days [View all]

My sister (62 years old) is very sick and has been diagnosed with COVID for the 2nd time under 30 days. She was informed by the PA at the Urgi-care in Cincinnati that "the 3 months of immunity is not applicable to the current strain of COVID" . Her in-laws had wedding last weekend. More than 1/2 of the 25 people at the wedding are sick and are, as my sister put it "wet washrags" She is double vaxxed and twice boosted.
