“…Jackson was one of the first high-profile civil rights figures to get the vaccine, receiving his first Pfizer dose during a highly publicized event in January, where he urged others to get it….”
********************************************************
He got the Pfizer vaccine which, it turns out, is not nearly as effective against the Delta variant as is Moderna. Since the very infectious Delta variant is over 99% of new COVID-19 infections, he and his wife SHOULD HAVE GOT THE MODERNA SHOTS.

It’s not what he said, it was that endearing speech impediment.

He sounded like there was a gerbil living in his mouth.

Maybe bump the two Pfizer shots with a Moderna boost?

When he read Green Eggs and Ham on Saturday Night Live.

That was one the last things that I remember being kind of funny on there.

Many things come to mind, many of which would reap many comments from younger thin-skinned meat heads.

Therefore, I write, “Jesse, you’ve been an incendiary figure. You’ve been the matchstick for many power kegs. Now, you are neither. So, in your ‘last phase of the moon before it goes dark’, whether true or not, you proclaim to become a harrumph victim of ‘the scourge of the hour’. Very well, then, since ‘the scourge of the hour’ hhas a history of reaping the elderly, I say to you, and to your mark on American history, goodbye.”

79 is high risk no matter what, vaccinated or not.

Also, vaccination apparently takes time to build up to full effectiveness. It's not immediate, and even when it gets there, it begins to deteriorate in effectiveness leading to the discussion of the need for boosters inside of year.

They are admitting the jabs do not work. If they did, then there would be no need for a booster.

Ever hear of someone that took a shot for small pox or polio needing a booster shot?

Answer: No because that was a real vaccine.

There is no live or dead Covid 19 virus in jabs for your body’s natural immune system to learn. What Jessie took is a mRNA gene therapy jab. All they took was therapeutic. Which means temporary.

Do you understand that the “delta” variant simply means Covid-19 from India? The same Covid 19 from a year and half ago. Which is a mutation. Mutations are only .03 difference from the original Covid. Furthermore, viruses die in the Spring and Summer. Did you ever know a flu virus from a year and half ago to still be around?

Answer: No it died.

So how is the virus Covid 19 around? It is not around. It’s long gone. The jabs are killing people Jessie, and not the “delta” variant. The vaccinated are shedding the virus. Hence, why some unvaccinated get it. Nevertheless, the majority of people getting it are the vaccinated.

Most of the people dying from the “delta” variant are jabbed. Look at Israel and the U.K. Most of the people sick are “vaccinated”
