Immunocompromised people who are age 65 or older should get a second dose of the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine, according to the latest recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In a statement released Wednesday, the CDC said the second dose should be received six months after the first dose.

The CDC also said its recommendations allow for flexibility for those who are moderately or severely immunocompromised to consider additional doses (three or more). in consultation with their health care provider.

Similar to previous seasons, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that all Americans ages 6 months and older get a shot of the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine to protect against another expected surge of the virus this fall and winter.

Still, as another fall virus season approaches, not everyone is following the CDC's advice.

Isn’t the covid vaccine still experimental? I don’t recall it being formally approved by the FDA.

No, thank you.

I do not find the idea of cancer appealing. And I have known far to many people who took the jab who suddenly have cancer.

But you go right ahead.

Have a nice day now!

I got all my vaccines in 1960 so, thanks, I’m good.

Get as many doze’s as you can... BTW... There is a growing movement of maskers and vaxxers who are trying their best to drum up another lockdown... They liked the last one so much, and many of them haven’t left their caves since then for fear of catching the common cold. It’s an actual ‘organized’ movement... So beware... They’re ‘out there’.

CDC ceased being a medical benefit when it turned to politicism using its control and regulatory power to implement Democrat will. Allowing FDA to bypass normally drug testing regimes, lying about mask efficacy, lying about what a vaccine really is and then having to change the definition to suit what that mRNA Covid concoction is, and continually working to increase inoculations even in the face of multiple unexplained deaths. Criminals.

Immunocompromised individuals are precisely the people who should not be getting covid shots. Even a healthy immune system will have trouble with all of the spike proteins.

I’m over 65 and if the CDC recommends it, I refuse to take it.

Right now we know the shot doesn’t prevent contracting or transmitting the virus, so why take it?

Because "they" said it would reduce your symptoms and keep you out of the hospital. F___ that. Never-vaxxer myself, had it 2X at ages 66 and 67. 2 initial days of malaise and eventual temporary loss of taste.

You can get Ivermectin 3mg pills from Push Health.
https://www.pushhealth.com

I bought 30 pills for $118 which includes their $64.99 fee...
Your request is always approved... Quite the markup!

They will change to a Pharmacy near you like Walgreens as was done for me.
Walgreens then will text you when ready.

I requested 12mg but it was reduced to 3mg. They want you to take 6 pills daily.
I am in California and people have had to sue at least in 2021 to get the medicine.

What happens next?
If your change request is approved, you will be notified once the prescription has been sent to the new pharmacy. If your request is denied, a notification will be shown on your dashboard and in your chart.
Current Pharmacy
Health First Pharmacy

An elderly family member followed this “advice” and had a stroke three days later.

The doc in the hospital said, No more boosters, okay?

Wake up, folks!!
