Now all of a sudden they do this? What a crock.

[Texas Eagle]

Why did covid stop at 19?

[lgjhn23]

There are certain folks that really should be facing a sentence to the gallows for this BS...and then some.

[Texas Eagle]

Limit access, my ass. They’re going to make it compulsory.

[where's_the_Outrage?]

Another FDA euthanasia plan? I’m over 65 and will take my chances by refusing the vax.

[Veto!]

They still have covid vaccines?
Must mean people are still getting covid. Or might.
My MD told me not to get that vax.

[exnavy]

As an over seventy, you shoot me, i shoot back.

[algore]

Not a crock

This is part of what RFK jr was hired to do

Now the government is going to limit the administration of the “clot shot” to the elderly so as to commit senicide? And the argument is anyone over 65 is “more susceptible to infection” than anyone else? How convenient. Are you f’n kidding me?

[albie]

Same here! Vax shmax

[jagusafr]

Hey, they can have mine!

[Red Badger]

Well, that’s ONE WAY TO SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE..............

The data as to who got a life-threatening infection from Covid support the change to recommending as only necessary for the elderly and those with any co-morbidity health conditions that make them more vulnerable. Otherwise young and healthy folks are not at high risk of a fatal infection. Vaccine for the healthy but older folks may help with regard to bad infections from close younger family members they live with or who they see frequently who may have a viral infection that does not mean the same severity for them.

But even then, in my book, if you must, go for a non-mRNA vaccine, not an mRNA vaccine.

How many people have been harmed this year because rfk jr couldn’t act on the first day regarding something much more important than food dye?

“”How many people have been harmed this year because rfk jr couldn’t act on the first day regarding something much more important than food dye?””

Or... more important than keeping people on SNAP from being able to buy sodas.

[logi_cal869]

Exactly.

“I’m over 65 and will take my chances by refusing the vax”

You’d be taking more of a chance if you GOT the shot IMO....also, I refuse to call it a “vaccine”.

Ever since the Covid hoax began six years ago, my wife have essentially ignored all the hoopla. We laugh at those still masking and the gays with their bicycle helmets.
