I assume they will just open it up to everyone but much like the flu shot - the impact will be bigger for older people, immunocompromised, and other higher risk people (obese, smokers, diabetic, etc).
The waiting to tweak the formulation to point towards current variants has been odd as well. One would hope a better targeted vaccine may be more effective in lower risk of catching it.
