What a joke! Even the so called Liberal rag NY Times warned against
putting too much faith in boosters!Is OYK and MOH trying to play God?
Most People Don't Need a Covid Vaccine Booster, New Review Says
None
of the data on coronavirus vaccines so far provides credible evidence
in support of boosters for the general population, according to a review
published on Monday by an international group of scientists, including
some at the Food and Drug Administration and the World Health
Organization.
The 18 authors include Dr. Philip Krause and Dr.
Marion Gruber, F.D.A. scientists who announced last month that they will
be leaving the agency, at least in part because they disagreed with the
Biden administration’s push for boosters before federal scientists
could review the evidence and make recommendations.
The Biden
administration has proposed administering vaccine boosters eight months
after the initial shots. But many scientists have opposed the plan,
saying the vaccines continue to be powerfully protective against severe
illness and hospitalization. A committee of advisers to the F.D.A. is
scheduled to meet on Friday to review the data.
In the new
review, published in The Lancet, experts said that whatever advantage
boosters provide would not outweigh the benefit of using those doses to
protect the billions of people who remain unvaccinated worldwide.
Boosters may be useful in some people with weak immune systems, they
said, but are not yet needed for the general population.
Several
studies published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,
including three on Friday, suggest that while efficacy against infection
with the Delta variant seems to wane slightly over time, the vaccines
hold steady against severe illness in all age groups. Only in older
adults over 75 do the vaccines show some weakening in protection against
hospitalization.
Immunity conferred by vaccines relies on
protection both from antibodies and from immune cells. Although the
levels of antibodies may wane over time — and raise the risk of
infection — the body’s memory of the virus is long-lived.
The
vaccines are slightly less effective against infection with the Delta
variant than with the Alpha variant, but the virus has not yet evolved
to evade the sustained responses from immune cells, the experts said.
Boosters may eventually be needed even for the general population if a
variant emerges that sidesteps the immune response.
The experts
cautioned that promoting boosters before they are needed, as well as any
reports of side effects from booster shots such as heart problems or
Guillain-Barre syndrome, may undermine confidence in the primary
vaccination.
Data from Israel suggest that booster doses enhance
protection against infection. But that evidence was collected just a
week or so after the third dose and may not hold up over time, the
experts said.

Yes, it is quite clear now that OYK has let his new-found ministerial power to overwhelm his thinking and has been play God all this while.
I am afraid to even imagine what he will do to all of us if he becomes our Prime Minister or Deputy PM!!!
Booster shots are not meant to boost your immune system because they are not vaccines. They are fake vaccines.
Booster shots recommended by Pfizer is to boost Pfizer’s already huge profits. That's the reason why they keep telling you the benefits outweigh the risks.
Pfizer reaps the benefits that outweigh the risks you are taking.
The whole world is being taken for a ride. Why? Because the desperate politicians are being blackmailed and the CONvinced by the snake oil sellers.
Morals, ethics, fairness, responsibility, justice, righteousness, honesty, compassion, goodness etc etc have been cast to the swine.
It is all about cheating, lying, fraud, scam etc to make as much money as possible for the interest of the few without any sense of guilt.
