According to CDC study Pfizer still has lower chances of any systemic reaction to a booster:

Pfizer -> booster Pfizer = 65.1%
Pfizer -> booster Moderna = 75.1%
Moderna -> booster Pfizer = 59.7%
Moderna -> booster Moderna = 75.2%

Or the antibodies could be 2x lower against Omicron. Every time this guy opens his mouth his company's stock shoots up. I don't trust him. FYI, I own Moderna stock.

Yeah, how about this guy gets facts first instead of saying things like "could be".

Notice that J&J isn't even mentioned much after the "run out and get a second shot" proclamation.

Yes, the Pfizer booster is the same dosage as the 1st and 2nd shots. (I asked as I was getting the Pfizer booster.) I had next to no side effects for any of the Pfizer shots, including the booster.

Had a PT appointment today and since it was just across the street from the hospital, stopped in to see about getting a booster shot. The hospital no longer offers COVID-19 shots to the general public. Sent an e-mail to my PCP asking where I should go to get a booster shot. If given a choice, I will opt for the Moderna booster. My two-shot vaccination was Moderna, and I had no ill effects from the two, other than a short-term arm soreness common to inoculations.

I got moderna Mon. afternoon. Smelled burnt marshmallows that evening (I have no idea if this was connected to the shot). Was very tired that night. Had body aches all the next day. By Wed. morning was feeling better. Slight sore arm throughout but not bad. For me I needed the whole day after to recover.
