Dr. Fauci: ‘We very well may need to get booster shots’ for Covid — here’s when
CNBC ^ | Cory Steig

"The CDC told CNN on Thursday that there have been 5,800 breakthrough Covid cases, which represents only 0.007% of people who have been vaccinated."

"More infectious Covid mutations could also necessitate regular boosters. “We may have cycles where we have to keep boosting people — either boosting them with the original vaccine, which gives you enough antibodies to spill over to the variants, or develop a vaccine that’s specific for one or more of the variants,” Fauci told MSNBC in March."

Another brilliant analysis by Fauci - we may - or may not - need booster shots in the future.

I’ll pass. I have natural immunity. It lasts at least eight months, probably much longer, but we’ll never hear about that. They’ll pump up the vaccine fear into those of us who were infected, barely sick, and fully recovered without any medical or medicinal assistance.

With all of these shots, I guess the implanted chip will come in handy to keep track of things.

CDC has reported 5,800 breakthrough cases so far.

Just remember, an unknown (to us) subset of this 5800 is nothing more than a "positive PCR test". There are probably 10's of thousands of other people who would test positive, but have no reason to be tested. It would be much more valuable to know how many people actually had a positive PCR AND symptoms. Just as before, "cases" don't matter. Hospitalizations and deaths do.

We are talking billions upon billions to line the pockets of the CDC, NIH, etc. bureaucrats and their willing big pharma partners.

Frankly, y’all sound like a bunch of Marxists. Since when do we impugn the character of American for profit businesses? Especially since President Trump’s greatest accomplishment was Operation Warp Speed, delivering life saving vaccines in months which normally would’ve taken years to develop, saving countless lives.

Fascinating prevented aids patients from receiving a Bactrim to prevent the PCP form of pneumonia, which killed thousands of people.

“ I point to Dr. Fauci in particular, because he was, and remains today, the head of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the head of the federal government’s AIDS research program. In 1987, pioneering AIDS activist Michael Callen begged Fauci for help in promoting the use of Bactrim as PCP prophylaxis and issuing interim guidelines urging physicians to prophylax those patients deemed at high risk for PCP.”

“ Had Fauci listened to people with AIDS and the clinicians treating them, and responded accordingly, he would have saved thousands of lives. In the two years between 1987, when Callen met with Fauci and 1989, when the guidelines were ultimately issued, nearly 17,000 people with AIDS suffocated from PCP. Most of these people might have lived had Fauci responded appropriately”

No need for a booster if you never got the original.

Let’s talk Marxist big government socialism for a moment because I don’t think you know what it means. A virus that kills .2% of elderly Americans results in the shutdown of all our small businesses (while mega corporations stay open), forced mask wearing and 6 ft distancing. Our wealth is Confiscated (and our kids future) to give Fauci and Bill Gates owned vaccine companies money to develop a forced experimental vaccine, for a questionable virus, under dubious circumstances.

You see free market in this?

I wish I still had my copy of As the Band Played On. I remember reading about this clown and would like to revisit some of it.

You are making President Trump out to be, at best, a dupe, at worst a conspirator. IMO, we should celebrate Operation Warp Speed as a great accomplishment for which President Trump deserves yet another Nobel Peace Prize (he should’ve won at least one already).
