     This feature takes into account transient issues where additional debugging information can be useful.
 
-Sampling decision happens at the Logger initialization. This means sampling may happen significantly more or less than depending on your traffic patterns, for example a steady low number of invocations and thus few cold starts.
+Sampling decision happens at the Logger initialization. When using the `injectLambdaContext` method either as a decorator or middleware, the sampling decision is refreshed at the beginning of each Lambda invocation for you.

+If you're not using either of these, you'll need to manually call the `refreshSamplingRate()` function at the start of your handler to refresh the sampling decision for each invocation.
