Booster Bust: Medical Establishment Changes Its Mind

There is a tectonic shift underway in the medico-scientific establishment: they are starting to walk back boosters.

The first indication of this dramatic change of attitude came from the United Kingdom last week.

On January 7, Reuters ran a wire titled UK Says 4th COVID Jabs Not Needed for Now As Booster Effect Lasts. That piece featured the following sentence in its opening paragraph: “there is no need for now for people to have a fourth shot, British health officials said on Friday.”

Three days later, the UK Mirror published a piece titled What Is 'Living With Covid'? Boris Johnson Drawing Up Plans 'To Be Rolled Out In March. The article quoted Dr. Clive Dix, the former head of the UK’s vaccine taskforce, who said:

"It is pointless keeping giving more and more vaccines to people who are not going to get very ill. We should just let them get ill and deal with that."

A mere day later, Bloomberg put out an article titled Repeat Booster Shots Spur European Warning on Immune-System Risks. The piece opened as follows:

European Union regulators warned that frequent Covid-19 booster shots could adversely affect the immune system and may not be feasible. Repeat booster doses every four months could eventually weaken the immune system and tire out people, according to the European Medicines Agency.

The piece goes on to quote Marco Cavaleri, the Head of Biological Health Threats and Vaccines Strategy at the European Medicines Agency (EMA), who said that boosters “can be done once, or maybe twice, but it’s not something that we can think should be repeated constantly.”

‘It’s akin to murder.’

it’s pretty well accepted that when attempting to make a valid point, absurd hyperbole is not helpful...

It’s the only way to keep a critical mass against the unjabbed. Too many booster resisters would have tipped the scale had they been tossed back into the “unjabbed” bucket.

Sadly, I think you're spot on. For quite some time, the gap was widening between those who had gotten the first shot and those who got the second as well as a gap between those who got the first shot but never the second or the booster.

Do you have a link to those lot numbers? I got both shots, but will have no more except with a gun pointed at my head. Though I don’t think that I have had any adverse effects, I would love to know if my lots were worse than the average.

I don’t see any hyperbole.
