I cited sources that included primary sources in their articles/citations.
It may not be what some folks want to hear. But just because “you hate it doesn’t make it hate speech.“
Maybe it's because you didn't even bother to read them?
Then you claimed "the CDC advisory board is showing concerns that too frequent “boosting” may actually be training your immune system to ignore the disease and could have adverse affects." while the proof you posted says "Boost too soon, and you don't ramp up protection in any meaningful way, in part because the body hasn't had enough time to build up a proper immune memory of that first vaccination yet. "It's not detrimental, it's just not necessarily as effective as a later boost,"
Just keep reading its further down.
Its also important to note that paper was just after the "Omicron" variant, so relatively new in the timeline of what we knew.
These are concerns that have been voiced. Both in the EU and the US.

The point being, and maybe it was a bit more poorly structured initial, is that there isnt a giant consensus here in the medical community, by a long shot. Even if those expressing any doubt are shouted down because voicing doubt is now "misinformation". The central point here is that repeated vaccination for an otherwise healthy individual is not a sustainable plan. COVID is here to stay, learning to live with it and structure your interactions around it isnt misinformation. I didnt say vaccines arent effective, especially for those with co-morbidities. I didnt say vaccines shouldnt be an option. I said its a personal decision and not something that should be some political dog whistle or joined to some sense of superiority over those that dont feel they need them. If you have some immunity because you have been recently infected, thats as good as a booster. Its lasts as long. That doesnt mean you are a bad person, or irresponsible or inferior to others. Same with if you wear a mask all the time.
Misinformation is mislead, which your post is full of.
