Biden Admin Recommends COVID-19 Booster Shots, Will Start Wide Distribution on Sept. 20


Booster shots will only be offered to Americans fully vaccinated with Moderna, Pfizer shots

The United States will begin widely distributing COVID-19 booster shots next month and will recommend them for most Americans who received the vaccine, according to several top federal health officials.

A joint statement from Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky, National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, and acting Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Janet Woodcock said people will need boosters starting eight months after they received their second dose of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine.

Those who got the single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine will likely need boosters as well, they said, although more data is needed before making a formal recommendation. The J&J shot uses a more traditional adenovirus mechanism, whereas the Pfizer and Moderna shots use mRNA technology.

“The available data make very clear that protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection begins to decrease over time following the initial doses of vaccination, and in association with the dominance of the Delta variant, we are starting to see evidence of reduced protection against mild and moderate disease,” said the joint statement, referring to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus that causes COVID-19.

Federal agencies, as a result, are now preparing to offer the booster doses starting on Sept. 20, they said, adding that individuals who were fully vaccinated will likely be eligible for the third shot, according to the statement. That includes some healthcare workers, nursing home residents, and other senior citizens.


“Based on our latest assessment, the current protection against severe disease, hospitalization, and death could diminish in the months ahead, especially among those who are at higher risk or were vaccinated during the earlier phases of the vaccination rollout,” said their joint statement. “For that reason, we conclude that a booster shot will be needed to maximize vaccine-induced protection and prolong its durability.”

Their announcement came after the White House COVID-19 press briefing on Wednesday, where health officials provided more information about the booster shots.

In the press briefing, Walensky said that the CDC analyzed data that suggested booster shots provided more protection against “severe disease, hospitalization, and death.” Walensky noted that a study found that Pfizer’s vaccine effectiveness against infection dropped over several months, with effectiveness dropping to about 53 percent in July. She said vaccines can protect against severe illness but acknowledged there is “increased risk” for death and severe illness “among those who were vaccinated early.”

Murthy and COVID-19 coordinator Jeff Zeints said during the news conference that the plan to distribute booster shots is contingent on whether the FDA and CDC approve them for most Americans before Sept. 20. The CDC last week recommended booster doses for immunocompromised individuals.

The move to recommend booster shots is sure to spark criticism from the World Health Organisation (WHO), which recently called on wealthy nations like the United States to hold off on recommending third doses in lieu of providing vaccines to poorer nations with lower vaccination rates.

In July, WHO director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus rebuked Pfizer and Moderna for focusing on developing and selling booster shots, arguing in a statement: “We’re making conscious choices right now not to protect those in most need.”

There has also been criticism that Pfizer and Moderna are pushing U.S. officials to quickly recommend boosters to make a profit. Both firms are predicted to reap billions and billions of dollars in revenue from the COVID-19 shots in the coming years.

The federal officials on Wednesday appeared to preempt WHO criticism, with Murthy suggesting it’s a false dichotomy to suggest that the United States cannot produce booster shots and distribute vaccine doses to poorer nations. “We clearly see our responsibility to both,” he said.

Earlier this year, more than a dozen influential scientists told Reuters that recommending booster shots so soon may imperil the public’s confidence in the vaccine. Some scientists, including a former CDC director, also expressed concern about statements made by Pfizer executives that COVID-19 booster shots will be needed every 12 months.

“It’s completely inappropriate to say that we’re likely to need an annual booster, because we have no idea what the likelihood of that is,” Dr. Tom Frieden, former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who now leads the global public health initiative Resolve to Save Lives, told the news agency, referring to the claim that Pfizer shots will be needed every 12 months.

So its getting to the point that we need to get shots every three or four months, wear two masks, and isolate ourselves from all human contact.

Got it.

Your response is confusing. What guidance am I supposed to have gleaned from pg 803 as I was referring to the new CDC recommendations for a third "booster" shot in addition to the two/multiple mask and stay away from everybody stupidity also coming from the CDC (and Fauci).

As to the Eagle, I'm well aware of who Para is.

Confusing?
Don’t French kiss the deer.
i.e. when kissing a deer don’t stick your younger in the deers mouth.

See my post with link, two posts above Para’s on page 803.
Deer have been tested positive for COVID.

Your statement was to avoid contact with “humans”.
We must stay distant from deer as well.

This whole COVID rage is getting a bit humorous, that’s all.

Edited to add:
Sorry all.
I thought Para’s response on page 803 was funny, then tried to make a joke, which landed flat.

Move to Orlando, they area going to roll it out and you get a free entry into the concert ticket raffle....

Raffle winners will have the opportunity to receive a ticket to see Enrique Iglesias and Ricky Martin, J. Cole, Marc Anthony,  Jimmy Buffett and other concerts at the Amway Center as well as Orlando Magic and Solar Bears games at the Amway Center, Orlando City Soccer Club matches at Exploria Stadium, college football bowl games at Camping World Stadium and shows at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. 

It seems as if the county is going to restrict attendance in Orange County to the vaxxers only.

I think it is pretty well established that cloth or paper masks are minimally (if at all) effective at stopping something the size of a virus particle. The SARS-COV-2 virus is comprised of approximately 200 million atoms. If a mask can't stop that, it sure as heck isn't stopping CO2 at the molecular level.



it’s messing up their ability to learn by observing each other’s facial expressions...

Not my field, but possibly


even causing mouth and face deformities by forcing mouth breathing

Dentofacial development is an integral part of orthodontic education and practice. It takes a lot more than mask wear and mouth breathing to alter the face or dentition

Actually, Prefontaine, I shouldn't have said anything to you about your post. There's no punch line. I'm serious. I meant what I said but I shouldn't have said it. I don't want you feeling unwelcome here.

Good luck to 'Jerry the Retard' with that effort. Orange County is about as over the WuFlu as they are over Demmings. The man's a total clown...and it shows every time he opens his mouth.

Have seen interviews w NYC restaurant owners most of whom who say that they are not going to deny patrons access.

Does it not bother f-tards pushing this that if these piece of shit vaccine passports were enforced that this is basically a license to discriminate against minorities, given that these groups are majority unvaccinated? Wheres the liberal outrage?

So if they are off duty they can't get something to eat? Vaccine passports. I hope they stand strong.


Unvaccinated cops must wear masks or face discipline, NYPD says, only 43% of its uniformed and civilian employees vaccinated as of last month.

https://nypost.com/2021/08/18/...r-not-wearing-masks/

The NYPD will discipline unvaccinated cops who don’t mask up while on the job — regardless if they are indoors or outdoors — as city officials try to prevent a surge of serious coronavirus cases in response to the highly infectious Delta variant, The Post has learned.

The department’s new guidance for masking was shared with the entire police force Tuesday evening in an administrative bulletin that spelled out instructions for officers to provide proof of the vaccination with the NYPD’s Medical Division, according to a copy of the bulletin obtained by The Post.

The move comes as the department has struggled to convince its workforce to get the jab, with only 43% of its uniformed and civilian employees vaccinated as of last month.

“Members who do not have official proof of COVID-19 vaccination on file with the Medical Division must wear a face covering at all times while working, whether indoors or outside, including while driving in Department vehicles,” according to the bulletin.

“These members may temporarily remove their masks when engaging in reasonable activities such as consuming food, drinking beverages, adjusting the face coverings due to temperature or to correct a breathing condition.”

“Appropriate disciplinary action will be taken for unvaccinated members found not wearing a face covering when required,” the memo reads.

One police source praised the change, saying it was a good thing “for the sake of humanity.”

The bulletin says sergeants or directors and above will be tasked with enforcing the policy for officers who haven’t gotten the jab and adds additional instructions will be provided to those supervisors.

Cops who are vaccinated must also mask up if they are in elevators, in schools, on public transit, in homeless shelters, jails, nursing homes or hospitals.

The memo does not say what the discipline would be for flouting the rules, or if vaccinated cops would be disciplined for not wearing a mask.

NYPD officials did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The department was often criticized during the pandemic with many on the force spotted openly flouting masking guidelines to help prevent the spread of the virus.

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced last month the city’s vaccination-or-test mandate would cover the entire municipal workforce. City employees, outside the NYPD, who violate the mandate will be “suspended without pay until they come into compliance,” a spokesman for the mayor said.

Cops may apply for “reasonable accommodation allowing them not to wear a face covering” through the EEOD Reasonable Accommodation Unit, the bulletin says.

It does not say how the weekly testing would work for cops.

Another police source told The Post they expect the weekly testing process to be a mess, with cops purposely burning as much time as they could on the clock to get a swab.

Covid Will Prevail As Long As The Known Cures Are Against Protocol

By Paul Craig Roberts

Since the NIH, CDC, FDA, WHO and the presstitutes began mass marketing their Covid vaccine campaign a year and a half ago, the dirty lying scum have been telling you that the vaccine is safe, bad reactions are “very rare,” the vaccine is 97.5% effective in its protection, and other outrageous lies.

The entirety of the Western world’s public health bureaucracies have not spoken a single word of truth. The vaccine does not protect you. To the contrary, it makes you ill.

Adverse reactions are not “rare,” they are commonplace.

The vaccine offers no protection against the virus.

Reports from everywhere are that the vast majority of new Covid cases are among the fully vaccinated.

The US, EU, and UK databases of adverse vaccine reactions show tens of thousands of deaths and over 5 million health injuries associated with the Covid vaccine. As the databases only capture between 1% and 10% of the adverse effects, the vaccines have done more harm than the Covid virus.

For the entirety of the time that the “pandemic” has been upon us, the official protocol enforced by CDC, NIH, FDA, and WHO has prevented known preventatives and cures—HCQ and Ivermectin—from being used to treat patients. Eli Lilly has announced a new cure, but it has “been put on hold,” that is, blocked from usage. Why has the medical establishment blocked treating Covid patients with known safe cures?

In clear words, the official medical protocol is entirely responsible for the Covid deaths. It was the lack of treatment, not the virus, that killed people.

Why were people not treated? They were not treated because the absence of any known treatment is the sole legal basis for the use of an untested, unapproved, experimental “vaccine.” The law is clear. Unapproved vaccines cannot be used if there is a cure.

Both known cures and preventatives—HCQ and Ivermectin—were blocked by the protocol established to guarantee mass inoculation with the “vaccine.” The protocol guaranteed billions in vaccine profits and sharply rising share prices of vaccine companies. The “pandemic” has created enormous riches for those running the show.

Profits prevailed over public health and still prevails over public health.

As information pours in that the vaccine does not protect but does harm, the low grade moron appointed Defense Secretary by the election thief has ordered all US military personnel to be inoculated by a date in September. An intelligent US Navy officer has pointed out that this order, in view of the known evidence, is detrimental to the national security of the US as the vaccine is known to fail to protect but is guaranteed to cause large numbers of illnesses and deaths among the troops.

It seems that even the dumbshit US Secretary of Defense is in league with Big Pharma. Little doubt he will be put on a pharmaceutical company board and with his bonuses end up worth $100 million, good pay for a quota hire.

That is the way the American political system works.

Iceland, a small island country, has achieved a 95% fully vaccinated population, and Iceland, like Israel, which is also heavily vaccinated, is now undergoing a new virus pandemic. Where is vaccine immunity? Nowhere to be found. According to the Iceland health authorities, 62% of those in intensive care are fully vaccinated. 80% of the most serious cases — those on ventilators — are fully vaccinated.

As I have examined many times, did the vaccine give otherwise healthy people Covid? Are these vaccine injuries? Does the vaccine, as distinguished experts say, train variants to escape the vaccine and the human immune system, thus producing variants unconstrained by vaccines?

Until these questions are answered by expert analysis and agreement, anyone who gives a Covid inoculation is committing a crime against the patient. Any patient who accepts the vaccine is driven by fear and peer pressure and is putting both his life and lifetime health at risk.

Americans and all peoples of the world who foolishly look to the US for leadership need to understand that the American health care system is dysfunctional. Private medical practice is ceasing to exist. Obamacare and other legislated and liability factors are forcing doctors into becoming mere employees of massive “health care” organizations that protect themselves from liability by following the protocols laid down by NIH and CDC. As NIH and CDC are in league with Big Pharma, the doctors are essentially following orders from the pharmaceutical companies.

Independent doctors can still think and use their training and skill to find a way to help their patients. But the establishment is determined to extend its control over the remaining independent doctors. To control independent practices, the establishment uses the power to revoke medical licenses. This power is now being used against doctors who actually treat and cure Covid patients.

We brainwashed Americans hear so much about how we have free medicine instead of socialized medicine like Europe. This is supposed to make us feel superior. But what Americans have is a health care system dominated by Big Pharma. In America health care serves profits, not health care.

The trouble with the West is that once the aristocrats, who had a sense of honor, even the corrupt ones, were driven out of politics, we only have dumbshits and the basely corrupted.

Consider for example, the Australian Health Minister who announced that 24,000 students will be injected with the deadly Covid vaccine regardless of parental objection.

The criminal’s name is Brad Hazzard. The criminal announced that the forced inoculation is “a golden opportunity” to become safe.

Here we have the hubris of evil. Hazzard is appropriately named. He is a hazard to 24,000 young Australians. It is a wonder that no one has decided that 24,000 Australian youths are worth more than a murderous health minister.

In New Zealand the Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who from the look of her has an IQ of about 70, has put the entire country under lockdown because a single case of Covid, “likely the Delta variant,” was discovered in the city of Auckland.

Large numbers of the most distinguished and high ranking scientists on earth have said that the vaccine, at best, is a failure. Nothing can be done about the Delta variant. No amount of vaccination, lockdowns, mask mandates. All are impotent. The Delta variant will run through the population. The only solution is cures. Known cures are known and in use by independent practices. In India, Ivermectin completely stopped Covid in the districts permitted to use it.

But in the great scientific all-knowing exceptional, indispensable superpower, all known cures are against protocol.

When I write that America is a totally dumbshit country, you now know what I mean. We have a “pandemic” because US public health officials have established a protocol, upheld by the presstitute media, that prevents treatment with known proven cures. Instead, an experiemental “vaccine” is used to spread illnesses.

And the dumbshit American population sits there sucking its thumb while jobs are destroyed, freedom is destroyed, the Constitution is destroyed, and Tyranny is erected in their place.
