I guess on a 1 to 10 scale, 10 being for sure

What about the numerous studies that show efficacy going to pretty much zero after 6 months?
Read the "How well it works" section for each vaccine: https://www.yalemedicine.org/news/covid-19-vaccine-comparison
After six months the vaccines remain perhaps 75% effective against infection and somewhat more against severe illness.
If the vaccine is so effective at preventing infection, why are countries recommending even mandating booster shots and why are some countries cancelling passports after 6 months if you’ve only had 2 shots?
You say that, but you provide no proof. So once again it's just your opinion. As far as I know it's just a recommendation in some countries, not a mandate. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=countries+recommending+even+mandating+booster+shots&t=h_&df=w&ia=web. Please prove me wrong.
In those countries that are talking about it it's because they don't want their healthcare systems to be overwhelmed and their economies to suffer more. They are already strained, and they want visitors to their country have 95% protection rather than 75%.
They are mandating it in Israel. And in France they are mandating it for over 65s.
And don’t you think mandating booster shots will hurt vaccine uptake? Why would they do that? Do you think it’s fair to make peoples rights contingent upon taking an experimental injection every 6 months?
So far it's only you saying that. What studies?
