A third dose of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine can "strongly" boost protection against the Delta variant -- beyond the protection afforded by the standard two doses, suggests new data released by Pfizer on Wednesda>y.

The data posted online, which are expected to be discussed in a company earnings call on Wednesday morning, suggest that antibody levels against the Delta variant in people ages 18 to 55 who receive a third dose of vaccine are greater than five-fold than following a second dose.

Among people ages 65 to 85, the Pfizer data suggest that antibody levels against the Delta variant after receiving a third dose of vaccine are greater than 11-fold than following a second dose.

LOL. The first 2 won’t protect you, but the 3rd one will for sure. But of course it will.

1) Covid Booster required tp again to remove masks.
2) It’s so communicable that we must expand voter access and expand mail in ballots in 2022.

Were I a Pfizer exec, I would strongly avoid any positive reference by CNN, the least trusted collection of clowns in the media. (You know, the media which garners no trust whatsover. So, you’ve got a CNN with the least of nothing.)

Big Pharma sees Covid-19 as a cash cow and new revenue stream, and they are going to push boosters for all the “new variants” of covid that supposedly exist.

The initial jab isn't killing nearly enough people fast enough for the Agenda21 depop schedule.
