"The panel of scientists debated whether the data supports a widespread deployment of a third injection when evidence shows that fully vaccinated patients still have protection from severe illness and hospitalization. “It’s unclear that everyone needs to be boosted, other than a subset of the population that clearly would be at high risk for serious disease,” committee member and NIH official Dr. Michael G. Kurilla affirmed. Several of the panel’s members have argued there is no reliable data to support boosters."
Looks like this booster won't be a "one size fits all!" Sorry to Dicator Joe and Lord Fauci!
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky late Thursday endorsed the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine booster shot for younger at-risk workers, which is seen as a rare break from the agency's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices panel.
The panel had recommended the booster for Americans 65 and older and for those over 50 with underlying medical conditions, but voted against the younger at-risk worker recommendation.
Walensky put it back in, saying it aligns with a U.S. Food and Drug Administration booster authorization from earlier this week.
When you have two conflicting, non-binding scientific panel recommendations, that doesn't mean a deviation is "political". The panels were only advisory panels.
