Biden’s push for COV boosters is a “very dangerous game (video)

Alex Berenson describes the push for COV booster shots as a “very dangerous game” and his concerns are backed up by scientists.

SCIENTISTS SHARPLY CRITICIZE

Scientists sharply criticized the Biden administration’s push to widely distribute Covid-19 vaccine booster shots in the U.S. next month. They say the data provided by federal health officials this week wasn’t compelling enough to recommend third shots to most of the American population right now, CNBC reports.

In other words, they hardly have enough data and are taking big risks pushing it.

Scientists and other health experts said the administration’s push for boosters is premature. While the data did suggest there was a reduction in protection against mild and moderate disease, the two-dose vaccines still held up well against severe disease and hospitalizations, scientists said.

For example, the New York study released by the CDC showed there were 9,675 infections among fully vaccinated adults, compared with 38,505 infections among unvaccinated adults during the period examined. Among the fully vaccinated people who were infected, 1,271 were hospitalized, accounting for roughly 15% of all Covid hospitalizations.

“People are still highly protected against severe disease, hospitalization, and death. This is what vaccines are supposed to do,” said Dr. Anna Durbin, a vaccine researcher at Johns Hopkins University. “If we start seeing significant upticks of more severe disease and hospitalizations in vaccinated people, that would be a signal to consider boosters.”

“The body’s immune system is complex, Durbin said. While the presence of antibodies induced by the vaccine may decline, resulting in a rise in breakthrough infections, the body has other mechanisms, like T cells, that may protect someone from getting seriously sick, “she said.

Former NY Times reporter Alex Berenson reported on what he believes is really behind the push for boosters in an article on substack. The vaccines are beginning to fail and the public health imperialists are terrified.

He writes:

With the vaccines failing – and, make no mistake, the vaccines are failing, as The New York Times itself essentially admitted on Wednesday night – the desperation among the public health grandees is palpable.

“You have to see the video, they’re scared shitless,” a reader emailed yesterday about the press conference that Drs. Anthony Fauci, Rochelle Walen…

Berenson said they are playing a very dangerous game with the booster shots and they know it.

There is no evidence to support this push, yet the government is getting corporations to do their dirty work for them anyway. They don’t know when the antibodies with the Booster will wane or what path they are taking us on.

“And they know it.” The public health establishment: “We have no data…so full speed ahead!”

BERENSON’S ARTICLE

As Covid cases, hospitalizations, and now deaths soar in Israel even though over 90 percent of older adults are fully vaccinated, the country is aggressively pushing a third shot.

Hundreds of thousands of older Israelis have already received it.

And other countries are preparing to follow.

Now the inevitable is happening. The third shot is beginning to fail.

The desperate move for a third shot is the latest and maybe most desperate manifestation of the panic around the vaccine failure that health authorities still will not openly admit is happening.

And it is profoundly anti-science.

These mRNA vaccines are not Pepto-Bismol. They have profound biological effects. They are encapsulated in fat particles whose long-term effects are unknown. They spread throughout the body (despite the early promise they would not). They hijack cellular machinery in exactly the same way an actual virus does.

They are no joke.

And – as rushed and flawed as their development was last year – at least regulators forced Pfizer and Moderna to test them in large clinical trials, with a total of more than 70,000 people.

The trials had two main goals: to make sure they didn’t have massive, immediate side effects (safety) and that they actually worked against the virus (efficacy).

In fact, the trials showed the vaccines did have a nasty short-term side effect profile – and that it worsened after the second dose. And despite their size, the trials failed to catch severe side effects for both the mRNA vaccines (which – at the least – cause heart inflammation in some young people) and the Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca vaccines, which cause a rare but particularly nasty form of blood clotting.

Still, most side effects appeared to fade after a few days. The trials also showed that at peak protection after the second dose, the mRNA vaccines reduced infections by 95 percent.

Thus their almost immediate authorization.

But now we know better.

The real-world data – from Israel, the United States, and everywhere else – are clear. Protection from infection fades within months even against the original coronavirus. It shrinks essentially to zero against the Delta variant (we can argue about time vs. variant effects, but the answer doesn’t matter in this context, either way the vaccines have stopped working).

For now, vaccine advocates are clinging to the hope that even if the vaccines do not protect against infection, they still provide some protection against more serious illness and death. I think the jury is still out on that question, but again it is largely irrelevant for this conversation – the Covid wards are filling in Israel, and most people in them are older and vaccinated. If the vaccines do offer any help after a few months against serious illness, it is far less than the 95-99 percent protection that advocates have claimed.

Thus the move for a third shot. And possibly more shots to come.

But please – please! – understand how radical a move this is.

At this point, these shots are basically being pushed forward on the basis of VERY early data from VERY small trials – a few dozen volunteers, at most – showing that people had significantly more antibodies a month after receiving a third dose.

 

I don’t doubt these slides are accurate.

THE VACCINES MAKE YOUR CELLS PRODUCE THE SPIKE PROTEIN. YOUR BODY THEN MAKES ANTIBODIES TO THOSE PROTEINS.

That’s what they do, and they’re very good at it. More vaccine makes your body do it more.
But that’s only the beginning of what we should know before encouraging a third dose. Here’s a PARTIAL list of questions we haven’t answered:

Does a third dose of the vaccine ACTUALLY REDUCE INFECTIONS IN THOSE PEOPLE WHO RECEIVE IT?

Does it reduce deaths (remember, even the original, huge Covid trials didn’t answer that question)?

Will the third dose produce a transient spike in infections, as the first dose appears to?
Will the antibodies last longer this time because we have more of them after the second dose, or will they decline more quickly?

Does the vaccine confer ANY long-term protection through T-cell immunity?

Will people who have received a third dose be vulnerable to future variants? Will they be more or less vulnerable than people who have been infected and recovered and are are naturally immune?

Will the side effects – which are generally much worse after the second dose than the first – be still worse after the third?

Will some people die from those side effects?

What is the overall safety profile of the third or more doses in a large population?
Does it differ by age?

—
I could go on, but I hope this is enough to show you how little we know.

Offering a third dose essentially means offering an entirely new vaccine regimen. If the FDA or other regulators had any guts they would insist on a new, full-size clinical trial (a BETTER trial, one powered to detect reductions in death) before allowing it.
Instead governments are rushing ahead based on what are basically early Phase 2 clinical trials – tiny and providing evidence of efficacy based on lab benchmarks rather than clinical data.

Yet, based on the stock action in Moderna and BioNTech in the last few days, investors are VERY confident these boosters are going to be part of our lives going forward.

And so the madness continues.

The inmates are firmly entrenched in the upper ‘echelons’ of the asylum…the “madness” WILL continue…

Notice the CDC and FDA are STILL hedging their bets with EUA ONLY !!! Especially with the ‘junior’ vaccines !!!

Once Alex started detailing the VAERS database with what I would call a staggering amount of deaths, it is now more difficult to analyze that data. Also, there are other databases that haven’t been factored in. The vaccine that was quickly rolled out in the 70’s, as I understand it, didn’t have nearly the death totals and adverse effects as this one.

Because of censorship it creates doubt of any claims made by “science bureaucrats”. For those of us who have learned about this history of mRNA vaccines and the failures, the censorship is confirmation it is suspicious.

Next, we will come for your children. Since the Government has been mute on vaccine adverse affects in the past we surely cannot trust them with the “new” vaccines. Billions have been paid through the Vaccine Court, which few are even aware of, so why would the current vaccine be any different. They are overtly mute on the matter. It seems there is evidence certain vaccines may cause autism. There has to be some reason autism has skyrocketed in children. A person hears about someone’s child with autism consistently. I can’t count the number of meetings with schools and several parents will refer to Their kids with autism. As many shot given to children, it could be a single vaccine that is the culprit. Has all the vaccines over the years been the cause of more illness in later years, even the flu. Who knows. The only shot I received in my childhood was smallpox. I missed out on all the overseas shots in the military and only had the shots in basic, with the air delivery system.

This report should send fear to the general public. Considering no long term studies have been done on mRNA vaccines no one knows of any long term affects.

The reason Biden focuses on Covid is because of poll numbers. It is the only subject where he is treading water. In every other area he’s in the 30’s.
