Dude not a chance in heck. Governments don’t want to do it unless they think it’s less damaging economically to keep things open. They’ve stopped caring a long time ago.
Also these new variants aren’t as scary. We’ve built up some immunity through vaccination and repeat infections.

Yesterday Dr. B H was talking about the coming up heatwave that was refreshing to see.

Apparently the new booster for the upcoming variant BA.2.86 is pretty good according to Moderna and Pfizer. :shifty: :think:

You and something like 95% of people under 60.

Look up Dr. Vinay Prasad on YouTube. He's a Dr. (PhD) and an immunologist, and triple vaxxed, but he says there's no reason anyone under like 60 should be getting any more jabs. The risks outweigh the benefits.

I'm neutral on the vaccine but I likely won't get it. I've been forced to find other ways to boost my immune system thanks to long covid, and with long covid its a risk to take another shot. It has set many people back...also fixed some people right up. Its a roll of the dice.

I heard CDC is going with Moderna for the next batch of Vaxx's for the BA.286 or whatever up your nose with a rubber hose variant.
I went with Moderna my first and 2nd only vaxx's with no reactions.
