Trump: Plans For Booster Shots Sound Like 'Money-Making Operation' for Pfizer

Former President Donald Trump Wednesday said plans to give booster vaccinations sound to him like a "money-making operation" for vaccine-maker Pfizer.

"Think of the money involved," Trump told Fox Business's Maria Bartiromo during a phone interview on her program. "That's tens of billions of dollars. If you are a pure businessman, you say 'you know what, let's give them another shot. That is another $10 billion of money coming in. The whole thing is crazy."

Trump, before the anticipated announcement, said that when the vaccines first came out during his administration, "they were good for life. Then they were good for a year or two."

But, he told Bartiromo, he could "see the writing on the wall."

I'm not sure the vaccines caused the Delta variant, as viruses naturally mutate once the necessary hosts for the original virus starts to dwindle. Good chance those vaccinated, if they didn't have the antibodies already, have reduced the number of hosts for the original virus.

What seems to be a point of discussion is that the vaccines themselves, particularly the two-shot vaccines, might be preventing people from fighting off the delta variant. Usually, the mutations are weaker forms of the original virus, but it's possible the vaccines have left the door wide open for the variants.

Thank you for the information. No, I don’t know exactly how the Delta/vaccine connection actually works but I have heard doctors and scientists make the connection. Your explanation seems logical and may be what they were saying (and I didn’t fully grasp it).
Thanks! v

And apparently Pzifer will be full FDA approved on Monday even though vaccines usually go through public discussion process and are normally required to have 50%+ efficacy before they are approved. Something doesn’t add up.

It’s a money making operation for the Democratic Party.

Trump got rolled. Love the guy, but he got duped by our so-called health agencies. Hard to believe he could only just now be seeing the light. Makes me sad.

Wouldn’t it be refreshing if everyone could go one fricking day without yammering about the vaccine?

Yeah, it appears to be the case. I think he knew earlier and has waited for a while before commenting on the corruption.

Don’t read it. Problem solved. It would be nice to go a day without worthless posts complaining about other posts.
