A vocal contingent of prominent doctors and scientists is pressing the Biden administration to scrap its plans to provide booster shots to all previously vaccinated adults, according to five people familiar with the matter

.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment. A spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services said the administration "regularly engage[s] outside stakeholders from the medical community with a broad array of viewpoints for their feedback" on the administration's pandemic policies.

The discussions have taken place amid ongoing tensions between scientists at the CDC and FDA and other federal officials working on the Covid-19 response about the administration’s public messaging on vaccine efficacy and boosters, given the gaps in available data. Fauci’s remarks drew disagreement on the call, the five people familiar with the matter said. Several participants were left mystified about the goal of the government’s vaccination campaign.

The dichotomy between the Biden team’s boosters-for-all philosophy and the targeted use endorsed by the health agencies and their independent advisory panels has frustrated some of the nation’s leading doctors.

Too late nerds! Already got mine 😎

They can mandate vax for schools, jobs, restaurants, travel…there will still be a pool of ppl who don’t get the shot.

Responsible journalism headlines: Doctors justifiably believe the booster shots would do more good given to people worldwide that aren't vaccinated. There is no shortage of vaccines for the unvaccinated in the US. Sending the shots overseas instead is a political risk for Biden.

Are they moving to new treatments?

so they can charge money for them lol

Biden calls for Senate to vote on debt limit increase this weekPresident Joe Biden called Monday for a Senate vote this week on raising the country's debt limit, saying opposition from Republicans could create 'a self-inflicted wound that takes our economy over a cliff.” There's only an 'alarming price-tag' on Dem initiatives, not on GOP initiatives. GOP only does tax-cuts for the rich, which is as far as their imaginations take them, and they don't care what those cost! Republican politicians are protecting their billionaire owners interests. They definitely ain’t protecting us non-billionaires Asking for greater taxes and nobody is working is how to destroy a nation and currently the Democrats are doing that.
