White House effort to stave off fall COVID surge with new boosters faces uphill battle

The White House is rushing ahead to roll out a new COVID-19 booster shot campaign in early September, but is facing an uphill battle to ensure it is successful.

The vaccines being used in the campaign are the first ones that have been manufactured to specifically target the subvariants of omicron that are currently causing the most infections, and administration officials have indicated they’re preparing to start offering the shots shortly after Labor Day.

The really big challenge will be how to force the boosters on the public AND still make the vaccines’ failure Trump’s fault.

I’m sure they’ll somehow make it work.

As disconnected from reality some people are, they will not even notice the conflict.

And they are fully approved?? Or using the old shot approvals as a cover.

AND how do they bring back cheat-by-mail-in ballots for the Mid-Terms?

The narrative will be that due to the large number of vaxx-deniers not getting their shots, the new variation of covid is out of control, necessitating the need for cheat-by-mail-in ballots.

Now, how to make it all Trump's fault...

When posting a crap site the The Hill, you should put the relevant text to the headline rather than giving them clicks…

But despite the administration’s optimism, the effort is likely to face major hurdles. Chief among them is a lack of interest from the public. Only about two-thirds of the U.S. population have been vaccinated with a primary COVID-19 vaccine series, while less than half of that group has received even a first booster.

The vaccination rate among children is even lower. According to the CDC, less than 4 percent of eligible kids under the age of 2 have received at least one dose, and only 6 percent of kids between the ages of 2 and 4 have received a single dose.

The “science” is not in.
The “CDC” lied.

i took the shot plus two

At the dialysis center, my blood clots, sometimes ending in sending me home, sometimes sending me back to the hospital to have my arm ballooned or roto-rooted.

IM NOT TAKING ANYMORE OF THAT CRAP!

Given Brandon’s failure to grasp the fundamental causes of inflation, there is little hope he’ll ever figure out that the damn vaccine doesn’t work. He’ll force it on us and demand that we accept the lie that it is.

This shows just how USELESS chasing a virus is: “The vaccines being used in the campaign are the first ones that have been manufactured to specifically target the subvariants of omicron that are currently causing the most infections”

The NEW Boosters are already LATE TO NEED.
CDC, White House, and all of Govt are a bunch of F*CKING Morons for CHASING an ever mutating virus. Oh wait this is about Big Pharma Profits not public health.

This level of incompetency ranks up there with using 2017 flu shot in 2023.

A judge just ruled thT DC employees don’t need to comply with mandatory vacination requirements. But by golly, in their minds, everyone else does apparently.

I remember libtards just railing against big pharma and how they were in the business of keeping people sick to make money.

I argued they were corporations and doing good work to help people.

I now see their point. But what is confusing is that now their scenario is obviously happening, they have shifted their position 180 degrees.

The age of the shots is ending. The age of lawsuits over the shots has begun.

I am at the point where I actually feel sorry for these people that believe the Federal Government and its agencies have their best interests in mind.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I’ve quit talking about it - what is done, is done for those who have gotten the shots. Most of those close to me got the shots out of fear, social pressure, spousal pressure, or coercion (jab or job). All of them have had COVID, some more than once. As for the boosters, those that get them are “beyond help” as you said, at least my help. Only those that have a jab or job mandate (the two in the medical field) will be getting boosters, based on what I’m seeing/hearing. The two medicos are so brainwashed by the ‘industrial medical complex’ that there’s no talking to them. Fortunately, neither are in medical positions that recommend or give the jabs (one is a surgeon, the other in CCU) so at least they’re not complicit at that level. Neither are the type to ‘make a stand’ & refuse more shots.

In a writing, I saw the unvaccinated described as being on “the invisible ark” .... as mankind dies in greater & greater numbers from the bio-weapon shots which is government inflicted democide/genocide, the ark analogy may prove true.
