Get ready for annual shots. Fucking racket.

Pfizer Inc. Chief Executive Albert Bourla said it is likely that people who receive Covid-19 vaccines will need booster shots within a year afterward, and then annual vaccinations, to maintain protection against the virus as it evolves.

“The variants will play a key role. It is extremely important to suppress the pool of people that can be susceptible to the virus,” Mr. Bourla said during a virtual event hosted by CVS Health Corp. that aired Thursday but was recorded April 1.

“There are vaccines like polio where one dose is enough,” Mr. Bourla said. “And there are vaccines like flu that you need every year. The Covid virus looks more like the influenza virus than the polio virus.”

More research is required to confirm the need for annual booster shots, Mr. Bourla said. But he added that the need appeared likely given research so far.

The chief executive’s comments come as the U.S. and other countries race to vaccinate as many people as possible and try to stay ahead of any variants that could evade the shots.

reno cool
So, shitload of total confirmed "cases", millions vaccinated everyday, warmer weather, everybody still wearing their diaper, they saying no evidence of vaccinated transmission
...yet cases are going up? :fishhead: something doesn't add up

New strains have developed that are even more contagious.

Tons of people still don't have access to vaccinations + refuse to get them.

Things opening up again + mask mandates being lifted.

It's not really that shocking, is it?
 
seems surprising to me. I don't see much change in activity over the last couple months. Perhaps these new strains are just soo much more contagious. But from my perspective it doesn't add up. The amount of people who have had the virus+ the amount vaccinated, should by now cover a large percentage. Enough to at least keep cases going down.
I expect some info to come out eventually, that shows we've been mislead about one or more factors :thinking:

I mean here in LA all the restaurants have indoor seating again. I saw a billiards hall open with a bunch of people playing with their masks down below their chin. This was NOT the case a month or two ago.

I also know tons of people, nurses even, that refuse to get the vaccine. And still others that want to but can't in their state.

Cases aren't on the rise that much, they are still steady/down a ton since December. Things reopening and more people congregating led to big spikes in previous instances, now just pretty minor ones. I don't see anything nefarious or suspicious.

I went to get my haircut today, and all the other customers had their masks off.. and then the haircut lady was like, “You can take your mask off.”


I felt vulnerable and uncomfortable.


I felt like she was asking me to show her my peepee.

And this right here is case in point, reno.

And you probably did it despite not having the second vaccination shot yet, right?

People are bored of it so just acting fools now. It isn't any more :thinking:than that.
 
I don't see it here. Hospitalization have gone up officially in Colorado. People are wearing masks the same way as always (if one is to believe that has much of an effect on anything). Everything has been open for months. People are getting vaccinated to a large degree, even if not everybody. ( a 3rd of the population I believe they said). Can't speak for everywhere, but Vegas has been packed since Halloween.
Somewhere the picture that has been painted is flawed. :dunno: that's my impression
 
What are we debating/arguing about?
Coronavirus is not an issue? We have it beat? The government is lying? We know better than the experts? All of the above?

I find it interesting/amusing how geographical location influences belief/opinion. Americans tend to be far more suspicious/less trusting of their government than citizens of other developed nations. I have a lot of confidence in the government here and think they do a fine job most of the time.
