Commentary: People think they don’t need a fourth COVID-19 shot. They’re wrong
Channel News Asia ^ | 02 Dec 2022 | Khoo Yoong Khean

When COVID-19 first hit, the risk of being infected was much higher than the personal costs of getting the vaccine. In 2022, these considerations are very different, says Duke-NUS Centre for Outbreak Preparedness’ Dr Khoo Yoong Khean.

The fourth COVID-19 jab has been made available for groups of people in Singapore since April, with the updated bivalent mRNA vaccine available to those aged 18 and above since Nov 7.

The bivalent mRNA vaccine targets the ancestral SARS-CoV-2 virus as well as the Omicron variants, such as BA.1, BA.4/5. Because of the immune evasion properties of the Omicron variants, this updated vaccine will have better protection against COVID-19. They remain well tolerated and the safety profile remains consistent with the previous version of the same vaccines, with mostly mild to moderate adverse effects.

With the increase in coverage against the new variants and a good safety profile, the decision to receive the fourth jab should be clear. But official vaccination statistics suggest that this isn’t so.

And these vaxx addicts can now be found posting on r/ covidvaccinated and r/ longhaulers ...complaining about their symptoms (many of which are, indeed, horrible) and then in the same post say that they’re going for another shot.

Basically say’s we know what we are doing but, we have a lot to learn.

Good luck all you lab rats.

Covid-19: Indian man has taken at least eight Covid jabs A man in India got jabbed with a Covid-19 vaccine at least eight times last year, a health official said. Brahmdeo Mandal, 65, has claimed that he received 11 doses of the vaccine in Bihar state. The retired postman said the jabs had helped him to get rid of aches and pains and "stay healthy". He claimed he had not suffered any adverse effects. Mr Mondal was finally stopped from taking what he claimed was his 12th jab at a camp last week.

Not getting these shots, I am 100% safe from the side effects of the shot, and over 99% safe from dying from covid.

My ivermectin and other items for immune health are satisfactory for me.

“It’s not a vaccine either. Same as the flu shot.”

Big difference here.
Covid injections are not vaccines. They are something else, gene therapy, GMO.
Influenza vaccines, flu shots, ARE traditional vaccines , even if marginally effective depending on the antigen strains included.

I’m not anti-vaccines. I’m anti-covid injections.

“I’ve heard of people that had over 20. They just keep going back.”

And dutifully wear their face diaper.

Same. When someone tries to tell me I’m an anti vaxxer, I remind them I got my shingles vax. The benefits definitely outweighs the risks on that one.

Mostly peaceful.

I don’t call anyone an anti vaxxer. Flu shots aren’t a vaccine, it’s a guess shot that might mitigate symptoms.
See my links above.
Flu shots and other vaccines are becoming mRNA based.
I’ll wait until longer term data has been acquired.
Approving the Covid vaccine went against the FDA protocol.
5 years testing before full approval.

There’s numerous sides in this issue, it isn’t binary.

They’re gonna need at least 6/year.

That’ll eventually bump up to 12/year.

If they make it through the 6/year cycle.

So sayeth the CDC/BigPharma/$$s.

🙃

Yeah, this mRNA stuff bothers me. I just don’t want to be a Guinea pig, and I feel like I was coerced into getting the first two doses. If it hadn’t been for my newborn grandson (at the time), I probably wouldn’t have gotten those first two doses.

We are no longer in an emergency situation. We have treatments, and for most people, CoVid is a cold. I’d rather get CoVid another few times than get another injection.

I read an article, some time ago...essentially saying having had (previous) flus/colds, etc., is the best inoculation against future strains.
