“I think it would have been one thing to say, look, logistically, operationally the big retail pharmacy chains, departments of health, hospital system need to be prepared for giving boosters — but for it to be a communicated to the general public ‘boosters are coming Sept. 20’ is a very different thing,” said Celine Gounder, an infectious disease expert who advised the Biden transition. “I think that is where that communication went wrong.
“We have always said that this initial plan would be contingent on the FDA and the CDC’s independent evaluation,” he said. “We will follow that evaluation and their recommendations, we will make sure our final plan reflects it.” While the White House has taken criticism for the move, some public health officials have defended the approach, saying there was need for officials to have come out quickly to prepare the public for the likelihood of boosters, especially as other countries took action and the number of breakthrough cases in the U.S. rose.
The World Health Organization has called for a “moratorium” on boosters, and and other international medical groups have blasted Biden for pushing to get a third dose of the coronavirus vaccine to Americans when only 20 percent of those in lower-income countries are at least partially vaccinated, compared to around 80 percent in some of the wealthiest nations, according to the WHO.
cites (autocorrect 🙄)
Here's one example: WebMD sites it can take from two to six weeks for the body to clear the virus and I've seen articles where it has said it can even take months in severe cases. So while the virus is still active it is also has more time to mutate.
This must be so difficult for him... perhaps he should just go with the rice pudding and take nappy time.
We need to do both at one time. Vaccinate those that need the vaccinations and booster those who need it at the appropriate point.
Fix everything right now! The Reps.
Trying to make the Biden administration as chaotic and crazy as the last one is ridiculous. There doesn’t need to be a WH headline every day.
Why is msm pushing medical advice not approved of the FDA? Report the news. That’s it. That’s your job.
The problem is that the further we go from the availability of vaccines, the more likely you are to have more breakthrough cases. I have seen a few in my social circle, one person has to go to the hospital. This won’t help convince unvaccinated folks to get it.
God Bless America baby
CDCgov If there are no facts that prove a 3rd covid shot causes death, then it should be deemed safe and made available to everyone that wants it. in other words if it's safe for the elderly and safe for the sickly with high risks, then it's 100% safe for all other adults

Biden adds measles to list of diseases that could require quarantinePresident Joe Biden on Friday signed an executive order adding measles to a list of communicable diseases that could require quarantine after several Afghan refugees were diagnosed with the highly contagious disease after arriving in the United States. Thank goodness. Anti-vaccers start outbreaks of crippling diseases for their own selfish reasons. I assume TB and polio to will require quarantine, someone refresh this old timers Twitter feed, he think he in 1950s

'Pay your fair share': Biden argues for raising taxes of corporations and the wealthyPresident Biden discussed his administration's plans for the economy and argued for increasing taxes on the wealthiest Americans and big corporations and called on them to 'start paying their fair share.' A truly remarkably dishonest statement. Maybe the IRS needs to be held accountable for some of this criminal activity. Reporting that it happens isn't the same as justice. If the top 1% who legally 'evade' taxes by using the tax code, 'owe' taxes, that means that all the mortgage owners who legally deducted their interest payments, probably including Biden himself, also 'owe' taxes.

Opinion: Biden is not living up to his promisesScott Jennings writes that President Joe Biden is failing on two campaign promises: shutting down Covid-19 and not being like Donald Trump. Time and again, when given a chance to inspire and unify, Biden and his team have confused and hectored the very unvaccinated Americans he needs to reach the most, Jennings writes. ScottJenningsKY Opinion Hey CNN, this both sides of argument doesn't work when one side doesn't believe in reality. ScottJenningsKY Opinion Biden's open border policy has exasperated the virus. Hundreds of thousands entering our country many with the virus and the government spreading them throughout the country. 2+2 still equals 4. ScottJenningsKY Opinion Maybe it’s because 50% of the population doesn’t even acknowledge that he exists.
