Pfizer CEO sees annual Covid-19 vaccine rather than frequent boosters as the ideal situation

Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla said on Saturday (Jan 23) that an annual Covid-19 vaccine would be preferable to more frequent booster shots in fighting the coronavirus pandemic.

Pfizer/BioNtech's Covid-19 vaccine has shown to be effective against severe disease and death caused by the heavily-mutated Omicron variant but less effective in preventing transmission.

With cases soaring, some countries have expanded Covid-19 vaccine booster programmes or shortened the gap between shots as governments scramble to shore up protection.

In an interview with Israel's N12 News, Dr Bourla was asked whether he sees booster shots being administered every four to five months on a regular basis.

"This will not be a good scenario. What I'm hoping (is) that we will have a vaccine that you will have to do once a year," Dr Bourla said.

"Once a year - it is easier to convince people to do it. It is easier for people to remember.

"So from a public health perspective, it is an ideal situation. We are looking to see if we can create a vaccine that covers Omicron and doesn't forget the other variants and that could be a solution," Dr Bourla said.

Dr Bourla has said Pfizer could be ready to file for approval for a redesigned vaccine to fight Omicron, and mass produce it, as soon as March.

Ideal for compliance, which leads to revenue.

Our politicians all have Pfizer kneepads except Rand Paul and Thomas Massie and maybe a few others IMHO.

You market a defective product and the solution is to force people to consume more of it..

Can I get that deal too?

Pfizer Assures That Vaccine Is Almost As Safe For Kids As COVID!

NEW YORK, NY—After conducting several trials, Pfizer has announced that their vaccine is now almost as safe for kids as getting COVID is.

“We are very proud of this achievement,” said a Pfizer spokesperson. “We can now confidently say that there is only a very small chance your child will suffer life-altering complications or death from the vaccine. Chances are still a bit higher than the chances of your kid dying from COVID, but hey! Give us some credit here! Not bad, huh?”

Experts confirmed that even though there is a statistically 0% chance of kids dying from COVID, parents should still require kids to get the vaccine immediately, to make up for Pfizer’s financial loss from the FDA not approving booster shots right away.

“Besides,” said one expert, “kids are puny and can’t even fight back with their skinny little arms and legs. Just get them vaccinated—to protect yourself—since your safety is the highest priority here.”

Pfizer is hoping they can get kids fully vaccinated before their Q4 sales numbers come out

They know pushing a booster shot every three months isn’t going to fly, but make it like an annual flu shot and they have secured a new annual revenue stream.

RE: but make it like an annual flu shot and they have secured a new annual revenue stream.

Ahhh, but here’s the rub... are the annual flu shots MANDATORY? In other words, if you did not take your flu shots, will you be banned from going to restaurants, flying, or even going to work to earn a living?

This constant COVID jab would mean that people who are un-boosted will never live a normal life no matter how many jabs they get.

"Pfizer CEO sees eternal revenue stream, 'Rivers of gold!' ”

Mr. Salty (Salty Cracker), tells all those vaccinated people to keep getting the booster shots until their blood type becomes "Pfizer."

Follow the money: annual "vaccine" means more profits for Pfizer at taxpayer expense.

Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, etc.. all have zero interest in knocking this virus out, they want to prolong it as long as possible to keep the taxpayer funded gravy train going.

“...Saturday (Jan 23)...” Reuters can’t even get the date right. At least for 2022. Isn’t the head cheeze for ‘rooters’ on the pfizer board? Once a month shots could be profitable for some stock holders eh?

If we can’t reconvene the Nuremberg trials when this insanity has run its course, we should all put together some kind of Tribunal Révolutionnaire. No way this guy gets away with it.
