Yesterday I had a conversation with one of my elderly tenants.
The subject was covid, and earlier times.
I remember as a kid, my parents made sure I was "inoculated" against measles, mumps, scarlet fever, polio, diphtheria.
I don't ever recall getting a booster shot for anything back then.
The one shot was enough.

All those inoculations gave us a lifetime of immunity.
The tenant recalled her childhood, and agreed with my statements.

I asked her what she felt has changed with this covid, that we need three or more shots, and still people are getting re-infected with it.

She replied. "Back when we were kids, those diseases were not created in a lab like this covid."

Very good answer, and perhaps this is why one shot isn't enough.
Plain and simple, these vaccines do not work to give people a lifetime immunity like the shots given to us as kids.
One needs to question WHY.

"Scientists" have enrolled 7 billion people into a drug trail.

they are learning all kinds of stuff from affects of man created viruses, to particular courses of treatment, to social science studies on human behavior related to mass manipulation.

Ahhh the information they are gathering!

The pharmaceutical companies give tons of money to DC politicians.


THAT is why the vaccines and boosters will live forever.


Follow the money.....there is nothing for DC or big pharma to gain, if things go back to normal. The money stops...the control through fear stops as well.


Imagine thinking that when we reach X number of boosters or vaccination rate...life will just go back to normal. Imagine being that naive.

Here is a big difference: previously the epidemic happened before the vaccine. For covid the vaccine was made before an epidemic.

Look at this Motley Fool investment article:
https://www.fool.com/investing/2020/...ing-today.aspx

China shared the virus's genetic sequence weekend of January 10, 2020. Wuhan locked down on January 23. And that was the first time I even heard about this new virus.

But these companies already had a vaccine candidate by time of the above article (Jan 21), and investors already knew to invest in vaccine companies.

It appears your memory is not correct. Several of the shots we got as kids are/were multiple doses. In fact, multiple doses is the norm with most vaccines. Immunity wanes.

Some examples:

Polio 3 or 4 doses
Meningitis A,B 2 to 3 doses
Meningitis C 2 doses
Dtap 5 doses
Chicken pox 2 doses
Measles, mumps, rubella 2 doses
HPV - 3 doses
Hib - up to 3 doses

(some shots given today did not exist when I was a kid).

Here is a link to the CDC recommendations for childhood vaccination.

Those aren't boosters...those are series.

DTap never ends. Every 5-10 years.

Same difference. The covid is not really a booster either. The object is to repeatedly challenge the immune system to increase/restore efficacy. I would expect multiple shots to become the standard "series" recommendation at some point going forward. Maybe it will be four or five, but more likely every couple years with adjustments made for currently circulating variants. Or we could get lucky and the third shot will give much more durable immunity. Time will tell.

Pets too. My dogs get exactly the same shots, in the same dose every year or two and with rabies every three years. Repeated vaccination is the norm not the exception.
