unboosted
Lacking extra power
Unboosted describes something that hasn't received a boost—additional power, enhancement, or amplification.
In vaccine contexts, unboosted means having received initial doses but no booster shot: The unboosted population remained more vulnerable to severe illness.
In gaming and automotive contexts, it refers to engines, characters, or stats without enhancement: an unboosted turbo, unboosted base damage.
