 Qubes 4.0.1 Warning
 -------------------
 
-After installing Qubes 4.0.1, please install fresh APT-based (e.g., Debian and Whonix) TemplateVMs in order to be protected from the APT update mechanism vulnerability that was patched after the release of 4.0.1.
-For instructions and further details, please see [QSB #46].
+Immediately after installing Qubes 4.0.1, please upgrade all of your Debian and Whonix TemplateVMs by executing the following commands in a dom0 terminal, as applicable for the templates you chose to install:
+
+    $ sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=upgrade qubes-template-debian-9
+    $ sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community --action=upgrade qubes-template-whonix-gw-14
+    $ sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-community --action=upgrade qubes-template-whonix-ws-14
+
+These upgrades are required in order to be protected from the APT update mechanism vulnerability that was announced and patched in [QSB #46], which was after the release of Qubes 4.0.1.
+This method is simpler than the method recommended in [QSB #46], but it is just as safe and effective so long as it is performed immediately after installing Qubes OS.
