CDC Finally Admits COVID Mutations Hobbled Vaccine Effectiveness: Timing is suspect - as vaccine manufacturers are on the cusp of rolling out Omicron-targeted shots by Labor Day.

The CDC has admitted what was ban-worthy 'fake news' just months ago - that Covid mutated to evade current vaccines which were created for the original strains, after nearly 40% of the people hospitalized in the US with Omicron were vaxxed and boosted.

As Bloomberg reports, from the end of March through May, when omicron BA.2 and BA.2.12.1 subvariants were the dominant strains, weekly hospitalization rates for all adults spiked, with those over 65 suffering the worst - though it should be noted that total omicron hospitalizations were far lower than when the delta variant was the dominant strain last fall.

Of course, the CDC's timing is suspect - as vaccine manufacturers are on the cusp of rolling out their omicron-targeted shots by Labor Day.

We knew omicron evaded vaccines nearly 9 months ago, even if Fauci lied about it.

According to the 'new' report, CDC scientists found that vaccines and boosters did a better job against Delta when it came to keeping people out of the hospital - with efficacy dropping slightly with the BA.1 variant, and then 'significantly' falling off when BA.2 hit the scene.

Adults with at least two booster shots fared better than other people when BA.2 was dominant. The majority of those admitted to the hospital also had at least one underlying condition. Unvaccinated adults were more than three times as likely to be hospitalized, but breakthrough infections still represented a significant number of the severe Covid cases, the data show.

US regulators have pushed Moderna Inc., Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE to expedite development of omicron-specific boosters for a September rollout. The drugmakers this week submitted early data to the US Food and Drug Administration seeking emergency clearance for updated shots that target the BA.4 and BA.5 virus strains. Scientists and vaccinemakers are already beginning to look toward next-generation shots that may provide longer-lasting protection against more variants. -Bloomberg

I still remember Biden and his “ONE AND DONE!” scam quote in regards to the J&J vaccine.

“The first rule of the con is never give up the con.”
Good point. A person can either admit his big mistake or focus on another person’s little mistakes. Fauci made big mistakes on Aids hype, Bird flu hype, Ebola hype, and covid hype. Either decrease the hype or increase the snow job.

Which one will be the final one turning people into full blown Zombies?
I think this whole process is to weed out the ones low IQ enough to take the vax. I know some were forced to but that is collateral damage.

“finally admits” something they started saying prominently for well over a year now when variants first started becoming the more dominant strains?

More narratives to create fake stories / conspiracies. Shameless garbage. Does it ever stop?

Take a peek at the Pfizer documents they were forced to release, then come back and call it a conspiracy.

We are now certainly past the 2019 version of the virus and omicron itself is now long mutated many times over. It is indeed pointless now to get it whether you got it before or not - whether you agreed with it or disagreed with it. The virus has moved on...almost everyone has been exposed to it one way or the other, it is no longer new, and the virus itself has mutated into much less dangerous forms. It will indeed soon be no worse than a bad cold if this obvious - and well-defined trend continues.

Can you people ever respond to what was actually said? It’s all narrative to you people. The Left made over.
