Trump says he 'probably won't' get COVID-19 booster shot (interview, injection, government)

During and interview with the WSJ yesterday, President Trump said he "probably won't" get a "vaccine" booster shot. That does not sound like a vote of confidence.

Trump says he 'probably won't' get COVID-19 booster shot

Former President Trump said he “probably won’t” get a third shot of the COVID-19 vaccine if several health regulators agree to authorize it for use among most Americans.

Trump told The Wall Street Journal in an interview published Friday, “I feel like I’m in good shape from that standpoint—I probably won’t.”

“I’ll look at stuff later on," he added. "I’m not against it, but it’s probably not for me."

A lot of people feel that way that I talked to. I know more vaccinated people that don't want a 3rd injection than I do unvaccinated. Not sure I'll get a 3rd injection because I really had misgivings about getting the first.

Just means he's not going to take it now, but leaves that option open for later on. Seriously, the guy got Covid and then had the vaccine. He probably is okay for now.

Knowing him, the translation is he'll get it and tell his base he did not, then we'll find out a month later that he got it immediately.

I'll happily get the booster after what I've seen in recent months.

You don't "know" him -- so don't try to snnoint yourself as judge, jury, and court of final appeal.

87% of fully vaccinated in US would get a booster if it's recommended. That's 130 million people.

He probably doesn't need it since he's had Covid and is vaxxed.

It makes no sense to get inoculated after having had covid. Or by extension, boosters either.

But in any case, I agree with you that he does not need to get it.

That also applies to anyone who has had covid, prior to being inoculated, yes?

He probably didn't even need the initial vax since he's had it already.

I'm very skeptical about the efficacy of the first two doses, let alone boosters. And every passing day I'm getting more and more skeptical. I found that when the government pushes something too hard, it's wisest to run the other way. I'll probably be declining boosters unless they start firing people at FDA, CDC, NIH, the White House, and any other sundry alphabet agency that was involved in the current spectacular failure of a covid policy AND until we know more.
