I don't think its a case of more boosters = better. We'll have to see what the FDA decides, or even what the final decision in Canada is.

Right now it is very evident that if you are double vaccinated, you have a 98% chance of not getting seriously sick from COVID, or even sick at all, and there is say a 75% chance of not even catching COVID at all. (number might be higher even, not exactly sure. Just going by the NPR report today on hospitalization rates for double vaccinated people).

Transmission rate is higher among unvaccinated. If you are double vaccinated and want to lower the chance of even catching COVID, we simply need higher vaccination rates so the virus burns out because there are no more hosts to thrive on.
