They said it lives in the nose and throat where the anti-bodies are weaker so maybe we won't be able to do that.

I also heard the Pfizer CEO say they think a 3rd dose of the same vaccine gives a 500%-1000% boost.

The Delta variant seems to flourish in the nose, the main port of entry for the virus. The vaccines are injected into muscle, and the antibodies produced in response mostly remain in the blood. Some antibodies may make their way to the nose but not enough to block it.

New Pfizer data suggests 3rd COVID vaccine dose 'strongly' boosts protection against delta variant
The data have not yet been peer-reviewed or published.

While Lollapalooza may be this weekend's biggest festival, it certainly isn't the only one.

A third dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine can "strongly" boost protection against the delta variant -- beyond the protection afforded by the standard two doses, suggests new data released by Pfizer on Wednesday.

The data posted online suggest that antibody levels against the delta variant in people ages 18 to 55 who receive a third dose of vaccine are greater than fivefold than following a second dose.
