A Panel of Scientists Conclude Vaccine Boosters Not Needed

From Zero Hedge

As a growing chorus of scientists and activists question the Biden Administration's push to roll out booster jabs to Americans as quickly as possible, more research has just been released suggesting booster jabs simply aren't necessary for most people - especially those who have already been vaccinated once.

The finding comes via a report citing the opinions of an all-star panel of scientists from around the world published via the Lancet. Governments would be better served to focus on immunizing the unvaccinated and to wait for more data on which boosters. What's more, it's not yet clear what doses would be most effective according to the authors, a group that includes two prominent US FDA
experts.

The scientists' assessment was based on a wide range of real-world observational studies as well as data from clinical trials before the vaccines were approved. "None of the studies has provided credible evidence of substantially declining protection against severe disease," the authors wrote.

The FDA scientists involved were Marion Gruber, who leads the FDA’s Office of Vaccines Research and Review, and her deputy Philip Krause. Both recently announced their plans to step down later this year. Now it's pretty clear that they're perhaps doing so to oppose the booster jab rollout.

The WHO has urged against broad use of boosters, saying it would make better public-health sense to focus on immunizing those who haven’t gotten any shots yet whether because of anti-vaccine sentiment in countries with ample reserves, or because they live in places with little access to shots.

"Even if boosting were eventually shown to decrease the medium-term risk of serious disease, current vaccine supplies could save more lives if used in previously unvaccinated populations," the authors wrote.

What's more, boosters could lead to even more harmful side effects in the population, a phenomenon which isn't well understood, even as cases of heart inflammation have increasingly been tied to mRNA vaccines.

  1. Doug, it's a DMI (Disease Mediation Injection), not a vaccine. The CDC itself states this. Calling it a vaccine is like calling a prison a preventive for crime. It reduces crime by taking criminals off the streets, but it doesn't prevent it. Nor does the vaccine. Otherwise, why would anyone care if I don't wear a Fauci Diaper or have the shot myself?

  2. I see your point. It's a gene therapy. I wouldn't mind getting the conventional inactivated virus vaccine like the flu shot and I'd be OK with that twice a year (assuming no thimerosal preservatives). Interestingly, Sinovac is just that type from China and it's only ~50% efficient (about the same effectiveness as our annual flu shot). How did they develop it so fast??? Hmmmmm...

  3. I happen to have read all of this when it all came out. And it’s all outstanding.

  4. I'm not a virologist. But I can read. And I am a logical thinker. I'm not anti- "vaccine" - I'm anti-THIS "vaccine." And I'm amazed at my colleagues, friends, acquaintances, and family who have taken it as though it they were trying Kombucha for the first time. "Yeah, it bites a little on the tongue, but it's actually pretty good." No, it's not the same.

    I've tried to see where a 99.5 (or whatever number you want to use...it's over 99) percent survival rate warrants a preventive. Wouldn't the rational choice be to use therapeutics? And to change one's diet? Take a quality B complex, 5000 IU of D3, chelated zinc, lots of quality C, and eat right and exercise hard? I'm in my mid-60s, and simply make the time and money budget for this. I've read the danger of this virus to diabetics and the molecular effects...scary. If someone is a diabetic, or older and frail with reduced lung capacity, get the DMI. But children? Healthy adults?

    It's like the Fauci Diaper-wearing crowd -- they run from us unmasked and unwashed at the supermarket, as if we were a giant oozing chinavirus molecule. I couldn't care less what you wear or whether you've gotten the shot. Why does my government? (And the imposter in the white house who threatened us with tactical aircraft and nuclear weapons...why would he even think about this? Answer - he wouldn't, unless someone was pushing him in that direction. As you said....hmmmmm.)
