Opinion The new covid booster is a bit of a gamble — but one well worth taking
Washington Post ^

Posted on 08/27/2022 7:07:57 AM PDT by MNDude

For all the amazing benefits of the mRNA coronavirus vaccines, there are limitations. The effectiveness wanes. New variants evolve faster than shots can be adjusted. Destructive disinformation about their safety lingers. Yet, the vaccines are critical to battling disease and death — and that also goes for the next generation of boosters coming soon. Critics might raise fresh concerns about these new shots, and there are some things the public should know. But the latest booster, as with all the previous shots, promises to be a life raft in dangerous seas.

So, I haven’t made up my mind about the Pfizer Wuhan + omicron shot. I take some of the concerns expressed here very seriously....

I appreciate your willingness to consider ALL the evidence, theories, speculation, studies, and alternative voices. That's all anybody can ask.

Why can't everybody be so wise?

Factor in the unknown consequence of evidence of actual change of genes from the Jab, and it is totally unknown what the long term casualties will be.

End This!

The only shots we need to hand them out are for the elderly who are at high risk of complications due to covid-19. But the catch is that covid-19 mutates by the time we get the shots out to them. If you are old (let’s say 80+), and you get covid-19, you have a higher risk of dying.

The potential for second of third generation effects may be limited. I think this bunch is more interested in mutations that cause lethality shortly after fertilization. Time will tell, though.

Fool us once, shame on you.
Fool us twice, shame on us.

But the sheeple among us will gladly line up and take the needle.

WAPO

WAPO was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy in 2011.

Bezos of Amazon hadn’t made a profit since its inception 17 years before.

But Bezos was connected to the CIA via his father. CIA contract management told Bezos to make some sort of profit and they would get him a services contract. Government contracts are generally not allowed to go to businesses losing money.

In 2011, Amazon accounting pulled some clever entrees to make the company look as if it turned a quarterly profit first time ever.

CIA responded by awarding AMZN its first $10 billion ‘Cloud Services’ contract .....

..... with instructions to Bezos to purchase the near bankrupt WAPO for $125 million.

CIA bought WAPO via Amazon.

WAPO is a CIA propaganda asset and leak channel.

It would be good to have names, faces, ages, positions, of those inside CIA and inside WAPO, that put this deal together.

CIA is funded from dark budget. Within its scope, it should not be allowed to use domestic surrogates to act as its buyer for American based businesses.
