The Biden administration plans to urge all Americans to get a booster shot for the coronavirus this autumn to counter a new wave of infections, a White House official said on Sunday.
The official said that while the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are reporting an increase in infections and hospital admissions from the virus, overall levels remain low.
On Thursday, Moderna (MRNA.O) said initial data showed its updated COVID-19 vaccine is effective against the “Eris” and “Fornax” subvariants in humans.
Moderna and other COVID-19 vaccine makers Novavax (NVAX.O), Pfizer (PFE.N) and German partner BioNTech SE (22UAy.DE) have created versions of their shots aimed at the XBB.1.5 subvariant.
Pending approval from health regulators in the United States and Europe, the companies expect the updated shots to be available in the coming weeks for the autumn vaccination season.
“We will be encouraging all Americans to get those boosters in addition to flu shots and RSV shots,” the official said, referring to the Respiratory Syncytial Virus.
No, you just keep leaving out key details while fear mongering.
The fact that myocarditis and pericarditis are side effects of the vaccine, although rare, is pretty well disseminated. There’s even a page on the CDC website about it
This page does still recommend vaccination but I have heard of some doctors discouraging it for young men due to their low risk of COVID complications. COVID itself carries a generally higher risk of both conditions which is why I’ve heard people should get vaccinated anyways.
This user isn’t fear mongering. They seem to just be confused about why exactly their doctor recommended they forgo vaccination.
Fuck you. I’m not fear mongering. I made my comment if you don’t want to believe it that is your choice. I’m not going to hold anyone hand when telling the truth never have never will. For example the Bible is a bunch of fairy tales and trump is a traitorous son of a bitch.
Good day.
