FDA panel rejects plan to administer Pfizer Covid booster doses to general public
The Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) vaccine committee has voted against authorizing booster doses of Pfizer’s Covid-19 jab, stating that more data on the shot’s efficacy is needed.
The agency’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee met on Friday and heard arguments from scientists and Pfizer representatives in favor of authorizing a third dose of the US drugmaker’s Covid-19 vaccine for the general public. After several hours of deliberation, the panel voted 16-3 against approving the boosters.
The panel, however, could still clear the shots for older populations. Scientists continued debating the need for a third dose of the vaccines for older populations after their initial vote, leaving open the possibility of other votes.
The nonbinding decision by the FDA’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee comes as the Biden administration has said it wants to begin offering booster shots to the general public as early as next week, pending authorization from U.S. health regulators. While the agency hasn’t always followed the advice of its committee, it often does. A final FDA decision could come in a matter of hours. The Centers of Disease Control and Prevention has scheduled a two-day meeting next week to discuss plans to distribute the third shots in the U.S.

Guess 20,000 killed is enough.
I really thought they would vote to allow.
Countdown to Presidential override by E.O.: 16-15-14....
16 to 3
That seems to be a serious indictment against the vaccine, in general.
If the booster has killed so many I’m out!
Still doesn’t halt the standard two-shot vaccine still on the market.
Expect the CCP to release a new variant soon.
Money will pass hands or threats made
Reduced sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2 variant Delta to antibody neutralization
Especially of interest if Deep State just ixnayed more boosters.
A lot of hand wringing and pearl clutching over at DU... They want as much medication as possible.

Anyone seen any reliable stats on the percentage of vaxxed who go back for seconds...
Wow.
But if it only saves one life…
That’s a revolt.
The regime will reconnoiter and come back with another offensive to get the boosters passed or they have another plan.
Maybe another plan like a booster/flu vaccine combo in a nasal spray and it’s mandated for every man, woman and child . . . .
In time for Christmas.
Or maybe the booster wasn’t lethal enough for its intended use.
Bingo, they’ve decided to pause this step for a while for some reason (Nicki Minaj?), this is by no means the final vote. Expect further aggressive measures in the meanwhile, to “eliminate the control group”.
16 to 2 vote. An agency with some remnants of integrity?
BIDEN/OBAMA will have to get on it and change that.
Pfizer does not take “no” for an answer.
Bribes didn’t seem to work, so they may have to hire Guido to teach the FDA about “science”.
