Dr Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said Sunday that the U.S. would be 'absolutely prepared' to offer a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine 'very quickly' to the wider population if required.

about 3 percent of U.S. adults— are authorized to get a third dose of the vaccine. That includes people who are vulnerable due to organ transplants, certain cancers, diseases or other disorders.

When asked about plans for how to distribute the booster shots, Fauci told CBS's Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation on Sunday that immunocompromised individuals can 'get their boosts literally right now.'

'If it turns out as the data comes in, we see we do need to give an additional dose to people in nursing homes or people who are elderly, we will be absolutely prepared to do that very quickly,' Fauci said, without offering a deadline for the evaluation. 'We are planning for and looking ahead.'

Asked about the timeline for the rest of the population, Fauci added federal health officials are 'looking at it on a daily and weekly basis in cohorts, not only in the U.S. but in other countries, to determine if, when and to whom we should be giving this.'

The third shot is not currently considered a booster, but rather an additional dose for people who are unable to develop sufficient immunity from the first two shots.

Dr. Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, told Fox New Sunday that officials will look at case data over the 'next couple of weeks' to evaluate whether to offer a third dose to the wider population in the second half of 2021.

The government seems to think Vaccine Passports are really important.

Do they come with expiration dates?
Do they track all the booster shots that you need in the future?

If two shots didn’t do it, why would three? Especially if the person is on immunosuppressant drugs.

FauxChi, We haven’t forgotten you with this cluster going on in Afghanistan. You will be tried for crimes against humanity. You bought and paid for the CCP bioweapon. You will be held accountable. You have the right to STFU. You have the right to an attorney. If you can’t afford one, well tough schiff.

The passports are available on the street. So much for their fine documentation and enforcement.

Compliance won’t end this, non compliance may or may not. But at least you’ll die free men.

Assuming anyone still gives a damn about being free.
