The CDC recommends that everyone over 12 get an updated booster as long as at least two months have passed since their last Covid shot.
At least 4.4 million people have received an updated Covid booster since the start of the month, according to data released Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That number represents around 1.5% of people currently eligible to receive the shots in the U.S.
The data does not include people who received updated Pfizer-BioNTech boosters in Idaho and Texas, the CDC said, so it is likely an underestimate. The White House estimates the number to be closer to 5 million doses of the new booster, The Associated Press reported.
The CDC signed off on updated versions of Pfizer’s and Moderna’s booster shots on Sept. 1, and pharmacies and other vaccination sites began administering the new shots around Labor Day weekend. The bivalent shots target both the original coronavirus strain and the currently circulating omicron subvariants BA.4 and BA.5.

In order to maintain profitability they’re going to have to roll out the fear and panic. Probably will need to force people on pain of losing their jobs. Here comes the “you can get the booster or we will be happy to help you find other employment.”
Which also means that 98% of that group are capable of assessing government lies, associated risks, and decide to give DemocRATs the finger.
If ya don’t trust the government, why would you succumb to being the victim of a government sponsored shot?
Maybe not as dangerous until moderna started stating they were adding rna to the flu shot and working on a combined flu/covid shot. Maybe they will use 10 mice to test it instead of 8 like the booster. They have effectively all but shut down shot administration with this junk. Of course the pharm giants are just fine as biden pre-purchased hundreds of millions of them before they were even developed thanks to taxpayers. So don't let anyone brag about the 'free' shots like the posters at the shot sites state.
In February of 2021 I received doth Covid shots. Seven months later I came down with severe Covid. I had double pneumonia with blood clots. I was placed in ICU for a entire month and another moth in the hospital and a skilled nursing recovery center. Today I suffer from scarred lungs due to the pneumonia and I am on oxygen when I move about like shopping etc. I was deathly sick and it’s only because of the grace of our lord and savior Jesus Christ that I survived. I actually begged God to let me leave since that was how near death and sick I had become. Thank God for the care I received in the hospital and of the care I have been continuously receiving from my beautiful wife of 54 years. I would add that the VA has been great with covering all my bills and I’m currently under the care of a VA pulmonologist. In closing I’ll say that I am not contemplating getting anymore Covid vaccine shots.
The flu shot started out as a fad, then morphed into a herd mentality thing. Like wearing a mask. Buncha dopey looking zombies like in a B horror movie.
It’s all about money. Apparently some people have figured it out. Most Americans are incredibly stupid though.

And staying that way.
Many of these companies would be out of business if the government didn’t subsidize them through all these useless ads.
Wow! What a story. Way to fight the fight.
When do the fired people get their jobs back?
Agree with all you said but I do think the Novavax method solves a big practical problem with the flu vaccines. Namely it cuts down the time it takes to produce the targeted proteins from months to weeks. This means they don’t have to predict half a year in advance which strains are coming to the US based on what they see flaring up in China—a prediction they often miss which leads to vaccines that don’t work well. The Novavax method will give them time to wait and see which strains actually get a foothold here and then target those strains with no guessing. I don’t get the flu shots so it’s neither here or there for me but I thought it was an interesting possible development.
Steve Kirsch did a fantastic, comprehensive roundup on all the studies and why the shots are NOT safe and effective - best he’s written & I’ve seen to date. If you don’t believe Steve, read the studies he’s citing .... I posted the beginning & ending paragraphs & the titles of the sections he’s got - go to the link to read it all & see his live links.
Evidence of harm
A short collection of key pieces of evidence showing the COVID vaccines are not “safe and effective.” Not even close. They are the most deadly vaccines we’ve ever produced.

Executive summary
“Here’s a high level collection of some of the most compelling pieces of evidence I’ve seen to date. This is not an exhaustive list, but just the key pieces of data that are impossible to explain if the vaccines are safe and effective.
I’ve divided the collection into sections and I’ve tried to limit each section to the most compelling data points. So don’t be disappointed if your favorite item isn’t mentioned in this article; I wanted to keep it short enough to be read..
I’ll try to keep this updated over time. It can be found in the Reference section of my Substack.”

Summary
Are the vaccines “safe and effective” as claimed?
To answer this, science requires that we look at all the available data and see whether the data is more consistent with the hypothesis of “safe and effective” or “not safe and effective.”
All the data that I and my colleagues have seen end up being placed in the “not” bucket.
We are open to being shown we got it wrong on the hundreds of pieces of evidence we have examined, but nobody is willing to discuss the data with us to resolve the issue, not even for $1M dollars.
I even went to extraordinary lengths to offer the Israeli safety data to ACIP Chair Grace Lee. Her response: she called the police on me. That pretty much tells you everything you need to know: they simply refuse to look at any data that goes against their currently held beliefs. That’s the way science works.
Please share this widely.
That must be why I haven’t seen many booster commercials lately
No return on investment.
So it IS about pharma profit !
If they cared about our health the commercials would be increasing not decreasing.
no such thing as a flu season. There is low vitamin D season.

To bolster your point:
Vitamin D for influenza
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4463890/
Entire article below, but the last 3 paragraphs are the ‘money shot’ ... read the last paragraph if you read nothing else:
I thank Dr Korownyk and colleagues for their interesting review on the neuraminidase inhibitors.1 Having spent some time looking at the reviews on these drugs myself, I agree that they are not very useful and the risk of causing harm is greater than the purported benefit. I no longer use them in my patients. Unfortunately, they are administered facility-wide in nursing homes as a public health measure when there is a reported outbreak of influenzalike illness or influenza. Working in long-term care settings, I have seen some of these patients and staff develop vomiting; some with serious diarrhea (also a known side effect); some with acute confusion, hallucinations, or delirium; and a number with worsening cognitive function. Having patients develop vomiting and diarrhea makes it difficult to know if there is a secondary outbreak in the facility of gastroenteritis. These side effects cause increased work for staff when this happens and are unpleasant for both staff and patients. I would suggest that these medications should no longer be stockpiled or used. This would result in tremendous savings in health care dollars.
On the other hand, it is well known that there is a seasonality to influenza that correlates well with the seasonal drop in vitamin D or 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels.2 Levels of 25(OH)D are quite low in nursing home residents, and supplementation with 2000 IU of vitamin D can bring levels to normal safely in most patients.3 The use of vitamin D as a prophylactic for influenza has shown promise in prevention of illness and reduction of secondary asthma in children.4 In this study there was benefit for influenza A but not influenza B or the common cold. The mechanism of how vitamin D works for influenza A has been described in the literature.5 Interestingly, the 25(OH)D levels identified in the recent Canadian Household Study have shown a drop in the average vitamin D level in Canadians over the past 5 years from about 67.7 nmol/L to 64 nmol/L, with one-third of those surveyed having levels below 50 nmol/L. Levels in the wintertime were considerably lower and would put the Canadian population at risk of a number of medical conditions.
The Institute of Medicine recommendation for adults younger than 70 years of age is 600 IU of vitamin D daily. We are told that this would achieve a level of 50 nmol/L in greater than 97.5% of individuals.6 Regrettably, a statistical error has resulted in erroneous recommendations by the Institute of Medicine leading to this conclusion and it might actually take 8800 IU of vitamin D to achieve this level in 97.5% of the population.7 This is a serious public health blunder.
A colleague of mine and I have introduced vitamin D at doses that have achieved greater than 100 nmol/L in most of our patients for the past number of years, and we now see very few patients in our clinics with the flu or influenzalike illness. In those patients who do have influenza, we have treated them with the vitamin D hammer, as coined by my colleague. This is a 1-time 50 000 IU dose of vitamin D3 or 10 000 IU 3 times daily for 2 to 3 days. The results are dramatic, with complete resolution of symptoms in 48 to 72 hours. One-time doses of vitamin D at this level have been used safely and have never been shown to be toxic.8 We urgently need a study of this intervention. The cost of vitamin D is about a penny for 1000 IU, so this treatment costs less than a dollar.
The former CDC Director, Dr. Redfield said a couple of weeks ago that it isn’t a vaccine - it’s a medicine meant to be taken like any other medicine...endless.
See post #6 on this thread. Some people are still clueless no matter how many clues you give them. It’s like all those clues just fall through a hole in their brain.
Here's an idea, JUST SAY NO!
*** How many other “vaccines” in history have required regular booster shots? Isn’t this an admission that their Gene Therapy “vaccine” doesn’t work?***
This.^^^
Most vaccines only need one booster, other than the annual flu shot tweak. Rarely do we need a booster every few months. This is showing that the “vax” doesn’t work.
Now, let me see if I have this right: The current resident of our White House has had all of the Chicom virus shots, including the booster and has had the Chicom virus TWICE AFTER receiving all of the jabs and these fools at nbc are still advocating that everyone should get the jabs?
Are they stupid or still think that we are stupid?
