uh huh..haha
Just spent a couple weeks out in Louisiana and Arkansas, where the outbreak has been pretty bad... my unvaccinated *** managed not to get it again, but all the vaccinated people are ill with it for the umpteenth time....
Imperfect Vaccines increase likelihood of repeat infections earlier... this was known long before they released this... its why you dont get vaccinated for malaria or any other illness without a good vaccine unless you are in high danger of contracting and dying from it

No one wants or will take the vaccines.
The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday approved the latest slate of annual Covid vaccines, clearing the way for Americans 6 months and older to receive updated shots in the midst of a prolonged summer surge of the virus.
Pfizer and Moderna, the vaccine makers, are expected to begin shipping vaccines to pharmacies and doctors’ offices within days. The shots are tailored to a version of the virus that took off this spring before giving way to closely related variants, all of which appear to spread faster.
For the frailest Americans, who have been dying of Covid in growing numbers this summer, the shots could offer a reprieve from a virus that disproportionately endangers those whose vaccinations are out of date.
But the approval is occurring months after wily new variants began driving up infections, a matter of consternation for some scientists who have urged faster turnarounds for updated shots.
In recent weeks, people have been hospitalized with Covid at a rate nearly twice as high as during the same time last summer. By late July, Covid was killing roughly 600 Americans each week, a substantial drop from this winter but double the number from this spring.
The availability of boosters has not translated into actual vaccinations. By spring, only one in five adults had received last year’s updated Covid vaccine. Even older Americans, who are at far greater risk of being severely sickened, largely spurned the shots, with only 40 percent of people 75 and older taking last year’s vaccine.
The prospects for this year’s rollout remain dim. Older people were still dubious about the need for additional doses, doctors said. The Biden administration has been scrambling to find money to vaccinate uninsured Americans. And public health departments remained short on funding for the proactive vaccination campaigns that drove uptake earlier in the pandemic, officials said.
“Health departments got extra money during the pandemic to send teams to people who were so disabled they had to stay at home,” said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University. “That money’s gone.”
Public health experts have been especially worried by modest booster uptake in nursing homes. Problems were evident a year ago, when many nursing homes waited months after approval to begin inoculations. Today, less than one-third of nursing home residents are considered up-to-date on Covid vaccinations, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

New Covid Shots Were Approved. But Who Will Get Them?

Only the commie sheep who want more white tapeworm-type clots running through their veins.
And spiders. Can't forget about the spiders.

Remember when we were told we were wearing tin foil hats when we knew the White House and the Gubmint were forcing social media companies to censor content about Covid?
Yet another 'conspiracy theory' proven correct.
Mark Zuckerberg says he regrets that Meta bowed to Biden administration pressure to censor content, saying in a letter that the interference was “wrong” and he plans to push back if it happens again.
Meta’s CEO aired his grievances in a letter Monday to the House Judiciary Committee in response to its investigation into content moderation on online platforms. Zuckerberg detailed how senior administration officials leaned on the company to censor certain posts about Covid-19, including humor and satire, and “expressed a lot of frustration” when the social media platform resisted....
Zuckerberg also expressed regret for Meta’s downplaying of content related to coverage by the New York Post about Hunter Biden ahead of the 2020 election that the FBI warned may have been rooted in a Russian disinformation operation.
“It’s since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we shouldn’t have demoted the story,” he wrote.
Republicans on the committee, led by Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, celebrated the letter in a long series of posts on X, calling it a “big win for free speech.”

I got sick Friday evening and found out on Monday that I had COVID. Pretty short duration, was feeling like dogshit Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Tuesday I felt about 80% and this morning is the best I’ve felt since last Friday morning. Worst issues were actually digestive as the cough and congestion were pretty minor. Fatigue was a big factor. All better now though it would seem.

The libtards need to be convinced that voluntarily going on ventilators is the only way to survive the next round of the flu.
Pfizer sure made a lot of money. Since then they had many commercials on tv. Some of them more than a minute long. Very expensive. And they came out with lots of new drugs too. Product development costs money. Looks like every time government money gets involved a new laundromat opens up.
Joe's commission check is in the mail.
Yeah, listening to Pfizer and Fraudci is a pretty bad habit.
Study of 1.7 Million Kids and Teens Who Got Pfizer COVID Vaccine Found Myopericarditis Only in Vaxed Groups
The preprint observational study using U.K. health system data also found the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine provided children and teens with only about 14 to 15 weeks of protection against testing positive for the virus.The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine provided children and teens in England with only about 14 to 15 weeks of protection against testing positive for the virus, according to a preprint study of over 1.7 million children ages 5 to 15 in the English National Healthcare System (NHS).
Researchers investigating the safety and effectiveness of Pfizer’s vaccine in fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated, and unvaccinated children and teens, also found cases of myocarditis and pericarditis only in vaccinated children...
The study found that vaccinated children required slightly fewer emergency room visits and hospital stays, but that those outcomes were extremely rare in children and teens across all groups.
There were no COVID-19 deaths among any of the study subjects...
The research also confirmed that even in 2021, when the vaccine was first authorized for children and teens, that age group did not face a high risk for COVID-19-related serious outcomes, including death or the need for emergency care, hospitalization or critical care...
They tested for five measures of effectiveness — a positive COVID-19 test, visits to the emergency department, COVID-19 hospitalization, COVID-19 critical care admission and death from COVID-19.
In total, 410,463 teenagers who received one dose of the vaccine were matched to unvaccinated controls, and 220,929 adolescents who received two shots were matched to single-vaccinated controls.
Of the 1,262,784 children in the adolescent part of the study — vaccinated and unvaccinated — there were only 72 emergency room visits, 90 COVID-19 hospitalizations — three of which were critical care for unvaccinated children — and no deaths.
There were nine cases of pericarditis and three cases of myocarditis, all in the vaccinated group.
Initially, positive COVID-19 tests were lower in the vaccinated group. However, by 15 weeks post-vaccination, the rates of positive tests in both groups were similar. The incidence of needing either emergency care or hospitalization was slightly lower in the vaccinated group.
Similarly in the two-dose to one-dose comparison, the incidence of positive tests was initially lower in the first group, but by 14 weeks post-vaccination was about the same in both groups...
They concluded that in adolescents, the vaccine reduced the rate of hospitalization more than it increased the risk for myocarditis and pericarditis, but for children, the increased risk of pericarditis was higher than the reduction of risk for hospitalization.
