FDA wants once-a-year COVID shots for most Americans

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:


  • The Food and Drug Administration wants to make COVID-19 vaccine shots more like the annual flu shot.
  • U.S. health officials on Monday proposed once-a-year Covid shots for most adults and children to protect against the mutating virus.
  • For immunocompromised adults and very young children, a two-dose combination may be needed for protection.

The Food and Drug Administration on Monday proposed once-a-year COVID-19 shots for most Americans. U.S. health officials see this as a simplified approach for future vaccination efforts and protection against the mutating virus.

If approved, Americans would no longer have to monitor how many shots they had or how many months it’s been since their last vaccine.

More than 80% of Americans have had at least one vaccine dose, and only 16% have received the latest boosters authorized in August.

The FDA will consult its panel of outside vaccine experts at a meeting on Thursday. The agency is expected to take the panel’s advice into consideration while deciding future vaccine requirements for manufacturers.

In documents posted online, FDA scientists say many Americans now have “sufficient preexisting immunity” against the coronavirus because of vaccination, infection or a combination of the two. That baseline of protection should be enough to move to an annual booster against the latest strains in circulation and make COVID-19 vaccinations more like the yearly flu shot, according to the agency.

A two-dose combination may be needed for the protection of immunocompromised adults and very small children, according to FDA scientists. Vaccine companies would need additional research on vaccination, infection rates, and other data to come up with who should receive a single shot versus a two-dose series.

The FDA outside panel will vote on whether all vaccines should target the same strains.

In 2020, the initial shots or the primary series from Pfizer and Moderna target the Alpha strain. The updated boosters introduced in October last year were also tweaked to target the dominant omicron strain.

The FDA’s proposal will make the agency, independent experts and manufacturers decide yearly on which strains to target by the early summer. This will allow manufacturers several months to produce and launch updated shots before the fall, similar to the way strains for flu vaccines are changed annually.

    They’re still not fda approved and are causing so many injuries and sudden deaths! Why on earth would anyone line up for these death jabs?! They’re still under EUA and should be pulled from market !!! I will never get one! I don’t get the flu jabs either! Do your own research!! mRNA jabs are NOT vaccines! They’re gene therapy and they do alter your dna! I’ve done my research, 2 years worth so far.

    Is the FDA going to accept all responsibility for all adverse effects from the poisons that they refer to as vaccines? I mean financially for death and negative health conditions caused by these poisons. You can bet not. When all of the evidence and facts prove that these poisons do nothing that they were claimed to do and in fact turn those that have taken multiple shots into the covid version of Typhoid Mary .

      Actually if you read the UNs goals for 2050.
      They include reduction of human population by a factor of 15. They want 500,000,000 on the earth vice over 7Billion cirrent inhabitants.
      Remember Obamas Govt paid into this research. Remember, the guy who thought up MRNA vax does not believe in them. Remember, the general public is not allowed to see VAERS! We have the Krazy Klown King running our nation.. Yup- the KKK is in charge.

    I don’t take the flu shot, and never had the flu… never had the killer COVID jab either, guess what, never had COVID either. You fools just keep on jabbing and die from it, we’ll reduce overall population slow but surely…

    The FDA shouldn’t even exist! It’s a team of appointed unqualified stooges paid off by pharmaceutical companies and employed with taxpayers hard earned money.
    The FDA approved RANITIDINE as a main ingredient in Zantac (used for heartburn) until it was directly related to several types of cancer.
    The FDA quietly removed the medication from the market, and Zantac came back on the market in a month with a different main ingredient.
    Victims and their families that suffered adverse effects from covid vaccines should be excused for revenge on tyrants who push these vaccines that don’t stop covid from infecting people, and don’t stop people from spreading covid.

    How about running these “vaccines” through the “official vaccine approval process” first so you can publish the long-term effects and warnings.

      Good luck with that clowns. But don’t worry. There are still enough gullible Americans for you to make billions more.

    People in hell want ice water. They will get their ice water long before the CDC gets what it wants.

    You can’t always get what you want. That is the case where Bio weapons were forced on the people. I had SARS1 in 2014 and died. I am now living with brain cancer caused by 3M Touch Systems decision to outsource touch screens and bring contaminated humans over to Massachusetts. 2 young folks stayed dead.

    All MRNA shots that contain Graphene oxide nanotube technology magnetic superconductor. It grows nano structures in your circulation system. EDTA is a heavy metal detox. You vaxed need to say no. The people have the power and some heads need to start rolling off soon.

    Arrest Birx, Fauci and all CDC, NIH, WHO, FDA and big pharma and big tech. executives involved.
    Fraud and homicide are not included in the total immunity from legal liability agreement under the PREP Act for the big Pharma criminals!
    RICO laws apply now! The DOJ better wake the Fk Up and get busy!
