Fauci says Pfizer booster shot likely approved by Sept. 20, Moderna to follow

Anthony Fauci on Sunday said the Pfizer-BioNTech shot will likely be the only approved COVID-19 vaccine booster by Sept. 20, the date the Biden administration previously recommended for beginning to administer booster shots for all fully vaccinated individuals.

When asked by guest host Weijia Jiang on CBS’s “Face the Nation” if the Biden administration is still planning to administer booster shots starting Sept. 20, Fauci said that is still the plan “in some respects,” noting that Pfizer will likely be ready at that date but that Moderna will need some additional time for appropriate approval.

“We were hoping that we would get the, both the candidates, both products, Moderna and Pfizer, rolled out by the week of the 20th. It is conceivable that we will only have one of them out, but the other would likely follow soon thereafter,” Fauci said.

“And the reason for that is that we, as we've said right from the very beginning, we're not going to do anything unless it gets the appropriate FDA [Food and Drug Administration] regulatory approval and then the recommendation from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. Looks like Pfizer has their data in and likely would meet the deadline,” he added.

Fauci told Jiang that while health officials had hoped to roll out both booster shots “simultaneously,” they will do it “sequentially” if they have to.

“So the bottom line is very likely at least part of the plan will be implemented but ultimately the entire plan will be,” he added.

Top Biden administration health officials released a joint statement last month that said people will need booster shots eight months after receiving a second dose of either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.

Fauci, who is currently serving as President Biden’s chief medical adviser, suggested that people receive the same booster shot as the original shot they were inoculated with, but he noted that studies are underway to determine if mixing vaccines is effective.

These boosters are the same as the first two. They are not upgraded for Delta. If I am wrong let me know. I read that in Israel, the 3rd shots will soon be Delta upgraded.

That’s one of the most bogus, discrediting sites out there. (Notably Steve Pieczenik links to it for crazy stories on his Twitter account.)

I know a guy in Long Beach who got the 3rd shot last week.

Moderna is nowhere near approval. And Fauci’s claim about getting the same shot is doubtful as researchers think a shot developed as a booster will be more effective.

We are on a losing streak with the vaccine, so we should Double Down.

That’s nice. What I need to know is how many masks today?

You’d think Dr. FraudXi would have the NIH put up
a dedicated website giving the right mask # for the day.

To: RandFan; All
Emphasizing that I'm not medically trained, please consider the following

Referenced below is a thread concerning possibly deadly micro blood clots that some doctors are questioning in connection with experimental CV19 "vaccines," these doctors concerned that the FDA may be overlooking such clotting...

From shots to clots: considerable medical evidence of COVID vaccine-induced blood clots (8.16.21)

Dr. Hoffe's concern, basically a complaint imo, is that his colleagues in the medical profession have probably studied only the larger forms of blood-clotting, not microscopic blood clots that form in capillary blood vessels.

The concern is that protein spikes that the experimental CV19 "vaccines" are stimulating the production of may be getting stuck in the walls of capillary blood vessels, causing microscopic blood clots that his colleagues may not have tested for while developing CV19 "vaccines."

Dr. Hoffe ran D-dimer blood clot tests on patients that he had given the “vaccine” to, the D-dimer test revealing recent blood clot activity that he questions if side effect of "vaccine."

The possible major problem with capillary blood clots is this. They can ultimately lead to death from pulmonary arterial hypertension in a matter of years, roughly 3 years mentioned in previous threads.

Again, the question is this. Did scientists who developed experimental CV19 use the D-dimer test to try to detect potentially deadly microscopic blood clotting in addition to the bigger blood clots that they got all excited about?

Corrections, insights welcome.
