Can’t wait until the 12th booster THEN I’ll be protected!
“If you have to be persuaded, reminded pressured, lied to, incentivized, coerced, bullied, socially shamed, guilt-tripped, threatened, punished and criminalized … If all of this is considered necessary to gain your compliance — you can be absolutely certain that what is being promoted is not in your best interest.†– Ian Watson….
if i can treat myself with ayurved then why government is indirectly forcing me to take vaccines
Keep it on course !!
Another "conspiracy theory". Booster every 6 months
Preparing Mark of the Beast System The Lord’s coming
Wars, Genocides, military coups, Natural Disasters, yet Covid…Media is deceptive
More money more money more money
I didnt feel anything with the first two-doses. So I welcome a third dose immediately and so on.
After booster doze there will be mega booster doze
(1) They claimed they had 93% efficacy, even against the Indian variant. Were they lying all this time? (2) They call it a "booster". Is it no just the same vaccine, injected a 3rd time? (3) Forecast: In 6 months, they will say you need a 4th dose.
I'm not getting the booster!!! Dies several days later.
Statistics out of Israel indicate that tranmissability after two dose of Pfizer drops to 39% after 6 months. That means the healthcare professionals who got their shots in the US January, their protection will probably be waning around now. They should get their booster shots now given they are more exposed to Covid than anyone else right now. And, yes the healthcare professionals will survive the virus, but we do not want them transmitting this virus to other vulnerable patients in the hospital.
It's not scientific to wait for vaccinated people to get sick of covid before we pay attention to a booster dose. What happened to the original participants of the Pfizer studies? They can test those and check their antibody attrition. Why isn't Pfizer doing this?
Make it a subscription service.
Gardasil has been updated to give broader coverage . Updating Vaccines is normal. the Virus NOT going away is NOT OK. We see by the antibody response that’s created by contracting the Beta strain a broader antibody response.A vaccine booster that creates specific antibodies against all circulating strains makes a lot of sense!
It’s clear that Boosters are for the elderly & immunosuppressed who are less likely to get memory B cells. Having a more diverse coverage by updating the Booster Makes more sense then Boosting with a Vaccine that’s greater then 12 months. Antibody titres are NOT enough the antigen presenting cells work Best when the Vaccine closely matches the Virus!

I got a flu shot and ended up in the hospital with pneumonia…go figure
If you get this next shot it’s just natural selection at this point

Wake up! The Lord is coming!
5 to 10 times more protection if you are currently fully vaccinated.
That means if your fully vaccinated your immunity is 20% to 10% effective. Which is what your immunity was before you were vaccinated. They're telling you the vaccine doesn't work. Do the math.
I think they should make a vaccine with pictures of children's favorite cartoon characters on the label.
Get vaccinated and will give you some candy.
Oh, I feel safe now! B.S.! Riddle me this. A REAL UK Government website posting for a contract to handle EXCESSIVE DEAD BODIES for the next 4 years. Click on this link and scroll down and READ for yourself! The Covid Shot seems to have the Grim Reaper on the move. What do THEY KNOW, YOU don't know? https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/013120-2021
So many ungrateful people in the comments. Incredible and incredibly shortsighted.
Can you guys get a doctor who is an immunologist maybe? Bc that might be better….just saying
Antibody, also called immunoglobulin, a protective protein produced by the immune system in response to the presence of a foreign substance, called an antigen.  recognize and latch onto antigens in order to remove them from the body. — I would say they're definitely important…..
I hope insurance covers it.

How can we be sure that an FDA and CDC decision on a "third shot" won't be influenced by political donations or promises of future directorship seats?
Nobody is buying your propaganda. You have destroyed the meaning of the word "science".
