Hi, I am from the future. I feel fantastic after my 21st booster shot. My 11th finger really helps with grabbing and typing on the smartphone

How do you think it worked for other vaccines that require boosters? The MMR used to be just one shot, but now it's two because they found out that the efficacy wore off after a while. Chickenpox used to be one shot, too. They added the Tdap to the 11-year-old schedule because they realized the first three or four given in babyhood and at age 5 weren't enough. This is no different.

It's a little different. 4 shots in a very short time and there is no end in sight. No comparison in any way to the other vaccinations you mention. They don't even share the same definition with the mRNAs.

Honestly, this would be a better sell for the jab. Phones are so unweildly these days that an extra finger on each hand my just convince me.

Pfizer CEO thinks 4th dose will be needed sooner then expected.


We need a new flu shot every year.

Why are people hyperventilating over a need for a new Covid shot every year? Or even half-year?

Are you running out of things to be terrified of?

Without a profit motive, half the treatments and medical innovations available to us today wouldn't exist.

Is that okay with you?

Maybe one that opens like a fan....enough to record 25-30 "boosters"

Once you reach your 50th shot you are eligible to trade your stamps in for a new heart. Just like the old S&H or Blue Chip stamps.

When's the last time OSHA forced your employer to fire you for declining a flu shot?

I would say that the ones who are bellying up to the Big Pharma vax bar every 3-6 months saying “please sir I want some more” are the ones who are fearful.
