They are still beneficial, your immune system will still recognize the new strains of Covid faster than someone who hasn’t had any vaccinations. The main goal with Covid is to keep it out of your lungs, and the quicker your immune system recognizes it, the more likely your lungs will stay clear. You might feel bloody awful for a few days but you will most likely recover without hospitalization.
That said, getting an updated booster is a very good idea, as most of the strains circulating in the world right now are some form of omicron, which is covered by a booster. The faster your immune system activates, the better off you are.
