Just after I wrote that post about Pfizer, omigosh and golly, I saw this in Business Insider:
Insert-tag-herehttps://www.businessinsider.com/how-long-does-booster-protection-omicron-covid-last-study-2021-12?r=US&IR=T
Unclear writing, but what they mean is that just ten weeks after the Pfizer booster, protection against Omicron drops from 70% to 45%.
Pfizer must be just awfully sorry about that: Guess you'll just have to have a new booster every couple of months. Oopsie! And now pay the man.

Booster protection against symptomatic COVID-19 caused by Omicron lasts about 10 weeks, data shows....
The UK Health Security Agency said protection against symptomatic COVID-19 caused by the variant dropped from 70% to 45% after a Pfizer booster for those initially vaccinated with the shot developed by Pfizer with BioNTech.
