FDA set to authorize updated COVID-19 booster shots for newer Omicron strains without completed human tests: Agency will assess new jabs based on mice research and older vaccines
UK Daily Mail ^ | 08/28/2022 | ANDREA CAVALLIER and AP

New COVID-19 booster shots are set to be authorized this week by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and will be available to most Americans before human testing has even been completed.

The shots have been modified to target the latest Omicron variant, but won't have finished testing in humans when the FDA makes the decision. Instead, the FDA is relying on data from other sources - like research in mice and older vaccines, the Wall Street Journal reported.

'Real world evidence from the current mRNA Covid-19 vaccines, which have been administered to millions of individuals, show us that the vaccines are safe,' FDA Commissioner Robert Califf said in a tweet last week.

Where is the evidence of these new strains? Is there a test for them? Or tests?

Is this another “vaccine” that still lets you catch the virus?

They can do whatever they want. It’s a product I don’t need so I don’t really care how they produce it, market it, etc.

Kind of hard to mandate an EUA since none has ever been approved. Wait, one was approved just never produced and ineffective for omy-cron

Biden’s language is strange here.


Is there a good reason we have to wait 84 years, or whatever - for ingredients?

Biden says they protect you against other diseases (plural).

They are selling this at the local level by saying if you take the shot now, without the omicron, then the taker will have to wait two months to satisfy the booster and will have to take it again with the omicron. So why get two shots with a wait in between. Wait a couple of weeks and get the whole package. Saves gas.

Same here-none of the above-I’m blessed with a very good immune system-was raised as a naturalist-paleo diet, no extra weight, no drugs, no processed or non organic food, workout, physical job, etc and that is still my lifestyle-there is something in vaxxes-and most drugs-that my body doesn’t like and reacts to-a simple flu shot will send me into anaphylactic shock in 30 minutes or less-been that way since childhood, so no “safe and effective” vaxxes, thanks-I had the Wuhan flu-mild case and knocked out with a natural remedy-much safer than a vaxx that doesn’t work-with anaphylactic shock as an instant side effect-and a big chance of much worse later.

We really, really don’t know what is in these potions that are not tested for safety on humans to any degree if at all-already the side effects look really dangerous-there should be warnings included, as there are on every other drug-even aspirin...

Probably-if you listen to the warnings the run through at lightning speed on commercials for other vaxxes, getting the sickness you are being vaxxed for is one of the “side effects”-which is totally without logic,

I wonder when someone with a brain will stop and wonder how many vaxxes, infusions, pills, etc can be put into the human body before the whole immune system or one of the other systems goes rogue or just shuts down...

It’s the new science don’t you know. No need to test. Formulate the hypothesis you want to happen, do whatever you want and no matter the results claim it’s a scientific success. What could go wrong???

Were either of you “vax”d, prior to getting sick?

Glad you’re both recovering.

Is he out of the hospital? Prayers for continued/complete healing.

Thanks so much for your concern and prayers. He was never in the hospital, as soon as he tested positive we called and let them know. They asked him to come in and have the monoclonal antibody infusion which was only a 2 1/2 hour IV and what is recommended for immunosuppressed people. We live in Bluffton, SC and there are only two hospitals in the state that have the monoclonal, Charleston and Columbia. He drove us to the facility and he drove home because I was feeling terrible. LOL. As it turned out I was much sicker than he ever was, but doing fine now. All in all, from the first symptoms it was about five days until I was feeling normal, it just disappeared and thank heavens it wasn’t that bad. He had like a moderate cold and I was a bad cold. He had a cough, slight fever, headache, but nothing severe.. I did not have a cough, or headache just totally out of it with sore throat, a higher fever and exhaustion. We both had the two vaccines in March of 2021.

Any one who gets near these "updated COVID-19 China virus booster shots" needs to have their head examined.

Omicron is/was a joke.

YW!!

That is wonderful that he was able to get (even drive himself!) the monoclonal antibody.

And, that you’ve both recovered.

Keep up the good work!!

For those who normally get flu shots, be aware of what you’re actually getting. I don't get those either. Nor the shingles shot. Nor the pneumonia shot. Or any other shot. Maybe that's why my bout with covid was like having a very mild cold.

I never got any flu shots either. Whatever vaccinations I got when I was little, those are all I have ever gotten. At the same time I thought Robert Kennedy and all those anti-vaccination mothers were crazy. Then Covid came along. I agree with you, never getting any of those annual flu shots helped me to never have any Covid or Covid symptoms. Plus I took lots of D3.

And every autumn, for years the propaganda to get your annual flu shot was/is strong. My understanding is that the new annual flu shots will be MRNA shots. So a must to avoid.
