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.

That is what they are telling their stockholders. We can vaccinate every 3 months and profits will go through the roof. Oh wait, they already did...

There’s a Lambda variant. I don’t know what they did with the letters between E and L. You can google Lambda variant.

On top of the theory that the vaccinated are breeding new mutations and may have *caused* the Delta variant.

...the answer to this - TAKE ANOTHER SHOT!

Now it just reminds me of a heroine addict shooting up...what on earth are you thinking?

Maybe the answer is to stay away if you’re worried and let the younger and healthier LIVE THEIR LIVES and reach HERD IMMUNITY - JUST AS GOD DESIGNED.

We’re just playing God now and not doing it very well.

How long before we need a constant Pfizer IV drip for a flu variant that has an average annual mortality rate of less than 1%?

Pretty much true for all that are in the mfgr business and in an
economy design to make a profit. If you are going to produce
it you have to make a profit to keep the cycle going.

Anyone considering one of these experimental gene therapies, wrongly called ‘vaccines,’ should do a search on ‘vaccines microclots.’
