The World Health Organization (WHO) Technical Advisory Group on COVID-19 Vaccine Composition, which meets about every 6 months to assess if any changes are needed, has recommended that the next COVID vaccine formulations use a monovalent (single-strain) JN.1 lineage.

...

In a statement, the experts note that the XBB lineage has been displaced by JN.1 and said that, over the short-term, circulating variants will likely be derived from JN.1.

...

They urged countries to continue to use any COVID vaccines that are emergency listed or prequalified by the WHO and emphasized that COVID vaccination shouldn't be delayed while waiting for updated versions.

And do you have some credible source of information about the WHO that provides any actual, factual, real-world basis for your lack of trust?

Absolutely, my own personal research and opinion.  I'm guessing forming one's own personal opinion is still allowed in this forum 😉

Obviously you've got your opinion, but apparently, nothing credible to back it up that you're willing to present here.
