Biden plans to ask Congress for funding to develop new COVID vaccine, may require shot for all
Fox News ^ | 8/26/23 | Greg Wehner

resident Biden said Friday he plans to request additional funding from Congress for the development of a new COVID-19 vaccine, adding he may require everyone to take it whether they previously received a vaccine or not.

Biden, who is vacationing in the Lake Tahoe area, was asked by a reporter on Friday if he could say anything about the uptick of COVID cases and a new variant.

"Yes, I can," the president said. "I signed off this morning on a proposal we have to present to Congress a request for additional funding for a new vaccine that is necessary, that works."

He added, "Tentatively it is recommended that it will likely be recommended everybody get it no matter whether they’ve gotten it before or not."

A $40 million funding request to Congress from the White House on Aug. 11 did not mention coronavirus money, but included money for Ukraine, U.S. federal disaster funds, and funds to bolster the enforcement along the U.S.-Mexico border to slow the flow of fentanyl into the U.S.

In 2022, the Biden administration requested $9.25 billion to fight the virus, but congressional lawmakers refused the request.

The Associated Press said officials are expecting an updated COVID-19 vaccine containing one version of the omicron strain called XBB.1.5.

The new vaccine is a change from today’s combination shots, which mix the original coronavirus strain with last year’s most common omicron variants.

As coronavirus continues to mutate, there will always be a need to update vaccines.

Next month, people will begin to receive the annual fall COVID-19 shot, as Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax are working on doses of the XBB update.

Devil in the details——may “require shots for all.”

Or what?
Military, first responders, law enforcement, school children, hospital staffs.....
Required “or else”?

My gut feeling is this time a lot of the meekly conforming populace will not go along with it. Many will but I think people hate old fads and out of date things like jabs that either didn’t work or killed people.

I as well cannot believe Fox News would ever spin something - in this case lie - to get their aged viewership upset. Color me shocked.

“Tentatively it is recommended that it will be likely recommended everybody get it no matter whether they’ve gotten it before or not.”

Yup, sounds like it’s required! /s.

If they lie about this for clicks, what else does Fox News lie about?

"Yes, I can," the president said.

"No; you won't", the populace said.

Good luck getting the 25-30% of people who never got the first one to get this one.

REALLY good luck getting the 100% of people who got the first one to get this one.

They cannot require any US citizen to get a shot of any sort.

The article does not say Biden or anyone else will require anyone to get a vaccine. Typical fox headline.

Here is a 4 minute clip of Rob Schneider joking around about the jabs. There is some adult humor towards the end of the clip..

All the people that relocated from commie states to free states will be happy when the new mandates are pretty much ignored.

It is not the use of messenger RNA that's the problem -- it's what the particular mRNA programming tells the body to do that can be a problem. This is like saying artificial intelligence is a problem and should never be used. In fact, it is HOW AI is used that can be a problem. In some cases it can be beneficial.

Back to the VaXX, it turns out you don't want spike protein -- or the training thereof -- introduced to your system by ANY means... Not even by covid itself but you can't do much about that (masks don't work). J&J and Novavax offer no advantages to the vaXX recipient relative to the spike protein.

Trump did the right thing with the Operation Warp Drive. He told everyone to take the vaccine. Or not.

I took the vaccine back then.

Right now I have mixed feelings on taking the booster shot.

But I'm taking the annual flu shot.

For every measure, there is a countermeasure.

I'm not and haven't for almost 30 years.

I get sicker than a dog from them and the final straw was when the shot came with a disclaimer that I could NOT sue anyone over possible side affects; I vowed to let GOD take care of me!

So far - so good.
