(READ) Medpage: CDC shouldn’t rush boosters for all with Covid Omicron


The following are excerpts from a Medpage commentary.

Don’t Jump the Gun on Boosting All Adults

For the CDC…the appearance of Omicron with its mutation profile, which includes changes that have been associated with less protection from the vaccine, was enough to universalize stronger booster recommendations for all adults. However, this action appears to be a preemptive move done without any new publicly released data to undergird it. The likely rationale behind the change may be that higher antibodies, even against an evasive variant like Omicron, may prevent infection. Though this is plausible, there isn’t data yet to support this.

…for the young, healthy population, the value of boosting with the vaccine currently available to transiently prevent what would likely be non-severe illness is, to me, of marginal value. The likelihood of non-severe COVID-19 in young, healthy people is almost certain to be as true for Omicron as it has been for Delta…

  1. Sharyl and Full Measure Team,

    Given the below facts, re the
    danger of sugar-consumption,
    why would you trust anything
    the Medical Mafia says about
    their CONTRIVED epidemic-
    as-“pandemic” Global Hoax ?

    S U G A R is to the Human Body
    what heroin is to it—but sugar
    effects a slow-motion-type death,
    via cardio vascular disease, as it is
    as addictive as heroin (( recall how
    sugar-industry interests had payed
    /bribed Harvard researchers to hide
    its conclusion, that sugar is the root
    cause of heart disease—not health-
    protecting saturated fats.

    Drinking sugary drinks daily
    may be linked to higher risk
    of CVD in women:

    https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/05/200513081556.htm

    “In a study of female California teachers, drinking one or more sugary beverages daily was associated with nearly a 20% higher risk of having cardiovascular disease when compared to those who rarely or never drank sugary beverages. Daily consumption of fruit drinks with added sugars was associated with a 42% greater likelihood of having cardiovascular disease when compared to those who rarely or never drank sugary beverages.”

  2. It’s getting confusing. The first reports from SA health officials said the omicron cases seemed to involve mild symptoms. Then, yesterday, there was a report from SA saying that lots of young children were being hospitalized with omicron. Now, today, another report comes out of SA saying that the vast majority of omicron cases involve mild symptoms. So, who knows what to believe at this point?

    1. It’s hard to believe any of them… however I read the letter from the doctor in SA who originally reported the variant and she was quite upset with the American media…..I believe her. We probably won’t hear from her again.
      What really concerns me is the way they are pushing these vaccines/boosters (the same way they did with antibiotics) we’re all going to end up with vaccine resilience to a super virus eventually.

  3. Slightly off-topic, but I was just looking at the Covid-19 cases in Ireland (per Worldometer), comparing this year to last year. Ireland doesn’t get much notice, but it had a very high 77% vaccination rate the last time I checked a couple of weeks ago. In recent weeks, new Covid-19 cases have ranged between 2,500 and 5,000 a day, reaching the 5,400 level in the past few days. Last year during the same time period – when no one was vaccinated – they were averaging about 220-260 cases a day. That is about a 2,000% INCREASE in cases despite going from 0% vaccinated to 77% vaccinated. THAT SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!

    The Covid-19 death statistics aren’t as bad, “only” DOUBLING this year in the October-early December time frame, compared to the same period last year (from about 190 last year to about 430 this year). Once again, that shouldn’t be happening.

    Setting aside arguments about the relative number of cases and deaths in the vaccinated vs unvaccinated categories, with 77% of the people vaccinated, plus natural immunity from prior infection, cases and deaths should be way down because of the much smaller pool of vulnerable people.

    Something is wrong; herd immunity is not happening, and we see this in country after country among many of the most vaccinated countries in the world.

    1. Remember though that hospitals were attributing all deaths to Covid, because I believe they were being compensated.
      Also I think they have developed tests that really hone in on detecting the slightest infection.
      Or am I wrong? Been led astray?
