A medical staff member prepares the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine at Tudor Ranch in Mecca, Calif. | Jae C. Hong/AP PhotoThe Food and Drug Administration on Thursday authorized a booster dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine for 16- and 17-year-olds, giving those teens access to the shots as the Omicron variant spreads worldwide.
“While new variants, including Omicron, emerge across the globe, we believe that the best way to minimize the spread of COVID-19 and any future variants is getting all eligible people fully vaccinated with the first two dose series and a booster dose as recommended," Pfizer Chair and CEO Albert Bourla said in a statement.
Concerns about exposing otherwise healthy, young people to myocarditis, an inflammatory heart condition and rare side effect of the messenger RNA vaccines like Pfizer's, convinced independent advisers to the FDA and the CDC to limit their earliest booster recommendations to the oldest and sickest Americans. Teens and adults under 30, particularly males, are most at risk of developing the condition, and advisers were wary of allowing additional doses for them with scant safety data.
So now that will spread it some more
Only a weak fearful mind would get vaccinated because a politician told them to
Thank God! I was running around in absolute terror and panic!!!!!
EXCLUSIVE: Dr. Robert Malone, Inventor Of The mRNA Vaccine On Scientific and Government Lies
The vaccine is *highly* effective.
Awesome
The death rate in children in the UK since they started sticking an experimental MRNA in their arms has increased by 78%, just a coincidence right!.
Yay heart attacks and strokes for everybody
Mass Genocide!!
Yet a protein based vaccine novavax that shows as good efficency without the side effects sits,1.76billion us tax payer dollars to develop this vaccine and FDA wont even approve boosters for trial participants,safer more effective real vaccine must not be enough money exchange
This is a sick joke!
And the science wins, 😱🤣🔬🍾🎊 but were was we abel to determine this since just a week ago it just surviced as new varient , only way to say with out a refutable fact you would of had to have information ahead of time
Oh wow the never ending booster. What is it now like the seventh or eighth LOL. You people
16 and 17 year old don’t need this shot that doesn’t work. BigPharma just want more billions to put in there bank !!!
No
For what?
All the info I keep seeing is omicron symptoms are mild...even Faucci said this. Then therexs this huge push on vax bc of omicron & fearmongering on the other hand. Can someone in govt & med make up their minds what the messaging is supposed to be on this & be consistent plz.
I just want to know, at what point in My meta data says I want to know about Pfizer, and their approvals. Why would this even show up in my feed.
Don’t care not for my kids
I see that people are getting vaccinated by the millions, the British were right when they said “ Americans will finally do the right thing, after they’ve tried everything else “ incredible!
First 2 shots didn't work, maybe the 3rd will be the lucky charm. Or the 4th, 5th, 6th......
