At least 89% of vaccinated American adults will qualify for Covid-19 booster shots
CNN ^ | 10 29 2021 | Elizabeth Cohen

If you're vaccinated against Covid-19 and wondering if you're eligible for a booster shot, the answer is probably yes.

After months of debate about who should be eligible for a booster, an analysis done for CNN shows that at least 89% of vaccinated American adults are eligible once enough time has passed since their original shots. This might surprise many Americans who think you have to be elderly or seriously ill to qualify for a booster shot.

It even surprised some government vaccine advisers.

"That's even more than I thought," said Dr. William Schaffner, a member of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. "I would have thought it was something like half the population."

Do the CDC booster rules/guidelines even matter?

There’s a bigger question about the CDC booster guidelines: Do they even matter?

To get a booster at CVS or Walgreens, people can just say they are eligible — they do not have to provide documentation that they have an underlying condition or work at a certain job, according to spokespersons for the companies.

The government vaccine advisers are aware that people might not follow the rules.

“People of education and wealth and ability are going to find some reason, they’re going to a provider, a pharmacy probably,” that isn’t careful about the rules, Dr. Sarah Long, a pediatrician at Drexel University College of Medicine said at a September 23 meeting of the CDC vaccine advisory committee. “They’ll get their dose without really significant need.”

“People are just going to go and get vaccines without any reason, and for lack of a better term, misrepresent their underlying conditions, just to get a booster,” Dr. Jason Goldman, another committee member, said at the same meeting.

Why would they care? They have brought in enough illegals to make sure they will have power forever.

Wait till the 2022 elections. There wont be enough opposition votes to overcome the votes their illegals cast for them.

Pig Face Bidet is paying them off to the tune of millions of dollars.

I’m in a priority group for boosters. Does this mean that first I have to get the original jab(s)? Even if I already had the ‘rona?

Wake up and smell the coffee.
220,000,000 adult Americans have chosen to get vaccinated.
You now belong to an irrelevant minority of Americans with NO clout. If all 220 million of us die, USA will cease to exist.

The sheeple will keep getting booster after booster after booster.

Think of it as Russian roulette. You never know in advance which one will be your last.

“Qualified for”?

The 11% NOT “qualified for” are probably DJT and some of his supporters . . .

My spouse has advanced cancer going on 4 years, with 100+ cancer treatments.
She got the booster a month ago, with zero side effects.

I know I have no clout.

I feel like I am reading a science fiction dystopia novel.

The excrement is hitting the rotating blades, and I am sitting here in my rural outpost watching the mess from a distance.

The more people who get fired for refusing the experimental mRNA gene manipulation, the quicker the American economy will collapse.

Hello, Great Reset! Right on schedule.

If you are old or have comorbidities, I understand you taking this shot.

All others? Get in line for your never ending clot shot booster sheep. With all the info that is coming out and that will come out, I will wear my unvaccinated badge proudly. You who proudly took the shot are the idiots. Yeah, I’m done being nice about it. I have take so much abuse for not taking the clot shot. Well now it’s time to heal the abuse on the deserved. And if you give this thing to your healthy kids, you are a horrible parent.

I feel for you and your wife. I totally understand you getting the shot.

My girl friends go worker had cancer. He’s in remission. He took the shot on his doctors advice and he has been on a downward slide since. He has been sick since he got his shot 4 months ago and he is in agony. He is incredibly angry that he beat cancer and that this shot might be what takes him down. I am very glad your wife is doing well.
