My husband just got one yesterday.

Same as the second shot, maybe slightly worse. Mild flu like symptoms and very sore arm.

They're called Pharmaceutical Reps.

Long since gone for most docs.
A few ethically challenged specialists can still make money in such manner.
Do know of this going on related to the Pandemic?

LOL, way to misunderstand that comment! They said natural immunity trumps vaccines...not Trump's vaccines.

What? It's not gone at all.

I know a couple. Not the brightest ladies but they're smoking hot and that's the main job requirement.

Google the term and you'll see tons of job openings.

Well, happens to be so that they are back to square one and, guess, who’s leading the way? Ninety percent of VACCINATED are infected again. No nine, not nineteen. Ninety.
So yes, third booster shots are recommended. That’s three in less than a year.
As OP said. How much longer of this nonsense? Until you’ll have vaccine instead of blood or something? You do realize that, at some point, you DO start damaging your body, instead of protecting it? Unless they simply inject you with saline every time and call it vaccine.
This really needs to be repeated: Three...3.....THREE 'vaccines' in a single year, despite that we were told this 'vaccine' would solve the problem.

Don't even talk about how this is 'no different than the annual flu shot' (ie: once a damn year, not 3 times a year) that has always been voluntary, no 'passports' required, no bribing, no insults, stabbing, or fights because of it!

These people either don't know wth they are doing, or they do know wth they are doing, and it's not something you all want them to be doing.

You all need to remember what you've been told over the last year and a half. You all seem to forget, so easily.

"Just 15 days to flatten the curve."

"The vaccine works, and we'll get back to normal once you vaccinate."

Now, we see that no, actually, locking everyone down and throwing cloth over the place that they breathe, didn't stop it.

Now, we see that no, actually,it appears that those who have been 'vaccinated', are still getting it, and are capable of spreading their germs to others, anyway.

Now, we see that, 'oh, no, it's not just a simple vaccine that you take and move on with life, we're going to need you to take another, and another, and another..."

At what point do some of you start asking questions?

Do you know why it has been so easy for certain people to manipulate others? To the point that we had wars because of it?

Because people either a) don't ask any questions or b) don't ask the right questions.

Asking questions doesn't mean you're 'anti' whatever, it just means you're thinking.

And based on history alone, one should never, ever blindly trust their governments. Ever. EV ER!

I don’t blindly trust my governments. I don’t blindly distrust them either. I reflect back on my microbiology course, read up on the data coming out and its possible interpretations, and consult microbiology acquaintances to verify and/or correct my understanding. Acknowledging that governments are institutions that are neither inherently good nor bad and thinking about how they operate in the midst of a situation with a lot of unknowns and a large populace of uneducated knee-jerk reactionaries, predatory insurance companies, and ambulance chasing lawyers gives a lot of important context in addition to the ongoing science of coronaviruses.

Coronaviruses are known for inducing only temporary immune responses. Their spikes make them so effective at establishing infection that antibodies have to be actively coursing through your body in order to fight off exposures, that as soon as your body takes antibodies out of production and puts the ability to manufacture them into “long term memory” in the lymph nodes, you’re vulnerable again. It varies person by person, but previous studies of coronaviruses in addition to data continually coming out about reinfections and outbreaks among vaccinated people all point to 6-8 months of immunity for the most vulnerable. Maybe I just read up on this stuff and committed it to memory as soon as the pandemic hit, but the most likely outcomes were always successful tamping out of the virus or regular boosters until pandemic phase is over. Between this virus behaving typically of coronaviruses and reactionary flaunting of precautions, the latter was always more likely.
