Scientists sharply criticized the Biden administration's push to widely distribute Covid-19 vaccine booster shots in the U.S. next month, saying the data provided by federal health officials this week wasn't compelling enough to recommend third shots to most of the American population right now.

While data suggests there is a reduction in protection against mild and moderate disease, the shots still held up well against severe disease, scientists said.

"The data are showing that yes, we are seeing breakthrough infections but, the infections are mild or moderate colds," said Johns Hopkins University's Dr. Anna Durbin.

Is “Booster” the codename for Biden’ plan to rescue Americans trapped in Afghanistan?

More is better!

Everybody line up for the booster and the booster for the booster and the booster for the booster for the booster.

Big Pharma Execs and shareholders gotta eat, ya know!

[Chad C. Mulligan]

How much stock in Big Pharma is held by these bureaucrats?

[Obadiah]

Seriously, can there be any doubt that these guys are just wingin’ it? They have absolutely no idea what they are doing. Anything to keep the fear and panic going, that’s all that seems to matter.

I think we have a few shareholders here on FR.

"say data isn't compelling"

Not only is it not compelling...their Emergency Use Authorizations should be revoked.

But who believes real scientists when we have the media, congress critters, and failed docs working for the gubmit who stayed at the Holiday Inn Express and actually think they can conjure up an IQ?

[Toespi]

A doctor was on Fox this afternoon saying the same thing. He said he will not get a booster, as it is not necessary. That COVID is ready to become like a cold.

[lightman]

That COVID is ready to become like a cold.

Some people die of colds' complications.

But we don't shut down for sniffles!

[piusv]

No different than how they handled Afghanastan.

More is not better in this case

The vax enthusiasm seems to have waned. But come November, no doubt they’ll all be excited and vaxholing at a spirited pace.

[airborne]

Not compelling?

Never stopped you before!

[butlerweave]

Health problems sound like Silicone implants

[yoe]

I have three words for anyone in the Biden administration pushing for a Covid-19 vaccine booster shots in the U.S. A.

BUZZ OFF DUMBO!

When you’ve LOST CNBC.....

Wake up, sheeples!

[Missouri gal]

Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi, retired professor of virology, says the vax is toxic because it causes inappropriate immune responses. The mRNA will invade blood vessel walls and cause the body to attack blood vessels. Many other doctors are warning of antibody-dependent enhancement, where the antibodies will cause the immune system to attack the body. These are closely related phenomena. The effects are long lasting.

Bhakdi’s advice: If you got the vaccine and are ok now, thank God and DO NOT get another shot of it.

[Faith Presses On]

I thought comparing it to a cold was “dangerous misinformation.”

[Faith Presses On]

I had to double check to make sure this story was from the MSM.
