CDC Says Covid Boosters Aren’t Necessary. Pfizer Suggests Otherwise.

The CDC and FDA said those who are fully vaccinated are protected from variants, including the surging delta variant. Pfizer, however, has announced that it would seek U.S. authorization for a third dose of its vaccine, saying another shot within 12 months could dramatically boost immunity.

    1. Here is the thing.
      Big Pharma doesn’t exist outside the United States.
      That’s an American phenomenon.

    2. @Tom Heinrichs …. I am orbiting the earth.. it is a magical place, filled with joy .. and wonder

    3. @Scahoni Honestly. I could tell by your unintelligent previous responses you were high.
      Confirmation is clarity for everyone else thou I guess.

    4. @Scahoni Stupid is contagious. Please stay home.

      Been fully vaccinated for nearly a month.

    1. @Moral Hazard according to a Nobel prize winning viralogist from France Luc Montagnier it indeed is their fault that its mutating. Idk if that’s correct or not but he’s way smarter than you and I on epidemiology.

    2. Are you up for a quick thought experiment? Let’s imagine, just for the sake of the argument, the booster was necessary.
      (I know you disagree, but just imagine.) In that case, what would you expect Pfizer to say?
      It would be the same, right?
      Wouldn’t it then be wise not to base your judgement about the second shot on Pfizer, as they would say it was necessary regardless? Just an idea, of course you are free to think about this what you want.

    3. @Jack Makackov No your stupidity is astounding. My insurance was billed for my shot as was the majority of everyone else who received a shot. If your insurance wasn’t charged then the bill went to the government for reimbursement (aka our tax dollars). You really don’t think that these pharmaceutical companies are going to give these vaccines out for free do you? They have made billions of dollars off of these vaccines.

  1. And We the People ask “you still don’t know why we don’t trust a word you say?” But the truth is not that they don’t understand – it is because they think we’re STUPID!

    1. @Incognito actually i esitmate it is more than that.. Unfortunately there is no real way to know how big that number really is either, but if it were to be polled correctly it would be anyone who answers im a “die hard” __republican/democrat_” or “i only vote for reps/dems”… Even then i dont really like calling them stupid, mostly they are just uninformed & misinformed sheep that havent taken the red pill to see the medias lies.

  2. Lmao you mean the company that makes the vaccine thinks people should keep getting more doses? IMAGINE MY SHOCK! 🤣🤣🤣

    1. The beginning of this video, it says that Pfizer says you do not need a booster shot if you have been vaccinated

    1. LOL then maybe they should stop vaccinating zoo animals and donating expired vaccines to other countries

    1. @WellDone Baku They never said masks don’t work. They said they were not necessary for the general public at the time. There’s a big difference between lying about the efficacy of masks and talking about the logistics of having everyone rush out to wear them when front line workers didn’t have an adequate supply. The CDC was ultimately covering for the Trump administration’s complete in ineptitude in stopping the virus or even acknowledging its existence for months when people were dying. The government refused to supply people with masks, turning it into a bidding war between states. That’s absolutely dysfunctional. The CDC was faced with a horribke situation that literally hasn’t happened in a century. Generally, you don’t want to invoke panic in an emergency. Ultimately, it was a misguided decision, but it was not made in an effort to be deceitful.

    2. I wouldn’t side with them as well… read about FDA’s revolving doors… all of them are sitting in the same board room…

    3. @Bonnie Swenson you always have free will… no one can force you to do anything… your body your choice…

    4. The CDC is the last agency I would trust right behind Big pharma and the rest of the government. It’s sad how corrupted the CDC has become

  3. SOOOOOOO THE DRUG COMPANY WHO IS GETTING PAID BY THE US GOVERNMENT FOR EVERY SHOT THEY SELL IS SAYING THAT WE NEED TO GIVE MORE SHOTS…..SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY…….OH OKAY, SIGN ME UP………NOT!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

    1. No, Pfizer is actually saying that you do not need a booster shot if you are fully vaccinated

  4. “A company who makes money from their product think you need that product and it should be mandatory.”
    Shocker.

    1. Exactly…
      Biggest pharmaceutical co. like Pfizer angling for more of easy government $$$.
      Pure greed!!

    2. Are you up for a quick thought experiment? Let’s imagine, just for the sake of the argument, the booster was necessary.
      (I know you disagree, but just imagine.) In that case, what would you expect Pfizer to say?

      Wouldn’t it then be wise not to base your judgement about the second shot on Pfizer, as they would say it was necessary regardless? Just an idea, of course you are free to think about this what you want.

  5. Of course Pfizer “suggests otherwise”. They’re the ones making money off the shots.🙄

    1. @Louis Tully not to be rude but have u bee watching tge left at all man, they will never wake up its too late for them they’ve been body snatched 😂

    3. @Creative Designation If one was wise they would realize that the risk involved in getting an experimental gene therapy far outweighs the threat of Covid.

  6. My PSA: You need to eat more hot dogs immediately, it’s imperative! Also, I’m selling hot dogs…

    1. Just wait until they start recommending you vaccinate your hot dog first! Pretty sure the move to vaccinate dogs & cats is right around the corner! Hot dogs following makes sense to them I’m sure

    1. @Great Value Crunchy Nuggets
      “they”
      That’s hilarious.
      I asked “with which” and you then continue to be completely obtuse by failing to identify whom.

    2. @Nonya LuvnLyfe I have read many incredibly stupid things in my life.
      You may have just taken first place though.
      All Germans are like Hitler.
      Okay.

    3. @Jack Makackov it’s such a blanket, easy, copt-out phrase “how science works” because it overlooks or dodges the matter of the fallible humans conducting it. a person can be power-hungry, stingy or greedy, or mean-spirited, bitter, etc and be a knowledgable & professional scientist. science, in essence, is good of course (most folks prob aren’t disputing u on this), however the corruption that has seeped into modern institutions is apparent & manifest, i.e. the science that u prize & exalt is all-too-human, it’s influenced considerably by profit & gain. industries tied to univs, expertise that’s bought & paid for, grants & proposals that are denied by bigwig, high priests, whose pockets are connected to tenures, or lab funds, or prominent journals. science can be viewed w/sesame street glasses, or, it can be held accountable, & measured against a higher standard of conduct, ethic, & practice.

    4. @Nonya LuvnLyfe
      And so are Beethoven, Goethe, Immanuel Kant, and Fritz Lang.

      Pfizer is a company whose corporate headquarters are in the United States (New York City) founded by a couple of chemists who emigrated here from Germany in the 19th century. Your comment is bigoted and makes no sense.

    1. You mean we want more of you Money… Makes you question did we need the shots to begin with..

    2. It’s not what Pfizer is saying! They are saying you do not need a booster if you’ve been fully vaccinated

    3. I have a thought experiment? Let’s imagine, just for the sake of the argument, the booster was necessary.
      (I know you disagree, but just imagine.) In that case, what would you expect Pfizer to say?
      It would be the same, right?
      So maybe it would be wise not to base your judgement about the second shot on Pfizer, as they would say it was necessary regardless. Just an idea, of course you are free to think about this what you want.

    1. But that’s not what Pfizer is doing! They want the first two shots but they are saying you do not need a

    2. I don’t can if they make it mandatory. I will still not take it!!! No one has the power over my body but Me and God. I don’t care what any political parasites says. I know my rights and will stand up for them

    3. Are you up for a quick thought experiment? Let’s imagine, just for the sake of the argument, the booster was necessary.

    4. @Creative Designation lol the real experiment is on the ppl!!! Until you wrap your head around that, any attempt to argue in favor of a booster only further solidifies your stupidity on the subject! THE VAX IS A HUMAN EXPERIMENT

    1. ‘Care’ and ‘attention to detail’ are important in the development of a vaccine and in conducting clinical trials. They are a condition of trust. As they are in taking advice from someone who has misspelled ‘vaccine’.

    2. @Money Grip
      Yeah, doin’ fine. Yale undergrad, Harvard, baseball, hockey. Never personally fearful, but respectful of others more vulnerable than me. Being responsible — I don’t drink and drive either.

  7. These experimental shots have caused enlarged hearts, full body convulsions & heart attacks! One woman who had MS was advised by her doctor to get the experimental shot. She was only in her 40’s & after the shot she was deathly sick & had to be hospitalized for a month & now will have to spend the rest of her life in a nursing home!!!
