  1. No shots still very protected rich fools don’t care about your health if so why tabaco is legal? And fast foods ? Liquor ?

    1. @Venture Ontario they still say they dont know if its less severe or not but they know the booster works on it? 🤡 stfu

  2. New York Times: “This number of amplification cycles needed to find the virus, called the cycle threshold, is never included in the results sent to doctors and coronavirus patients.”…
    And the question is : WHY ?

    1. Because the whole PCR test is flawed has repeatedly been shown to be nothing more than a conspiracy theory. Yes, more cycles means more sensitivity and starting with Delta, the viral load is high enough that fewer cycles suffices. However, PCR itself is the replication of specific genome sequences so the excess amplification may detect cases that are inconsequential but they are still valid positives just perhaps not necessarily worth noting.

  3. It increases antibodies but they are the wrong shape. It’s like trying to complete a puzzle with all edge pieces. I got my booster just over a month ago before Omicron was known here. I hope it helps but have serious doubts.

  4. Moderna can say whatever they want, I’ll go to the WHO for my information, not a company that looks to profit from this mess.

    1. Exactly, these vaccines produce variants. Blame this on the vaxxed, unvaxxed can’t travel. Variants =Boosters = Billions for Big Pharma
