Fourth Covid Shots Cometh By Brian Simpson
I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so. Get ready for the fourth jab, then jabs eternal. Big Pharma is on a great wicket, and the government is its obedient servant.
“Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt has flagged that older Australians may get a new Covid vaccine booster shot every year.
Mr Hunt said the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) has been looking into a potential fourth vaccine shot for weeks.
After some significant research he said ATAGI will potentially be 'going to recommend a second booster' for people aged 65 and over, and an annual jab is being considered.
Mr Hunt said advice from the nation's leading vaccine advisory group could come through by the end of the month on whether a fourth dose would be recommended.
So, Australians could find out in a matter of weeks whether they need to receive a second COVID-19 vaccine booster ahead of a predicted winter surge in infections.
Mr Hunt said it was more likely than not a fourth dose will be the course of action for some groups ahead of winter, when a spike in both COVID and flu infections is forecast.
'I can't pre-empt the decision but ... they are potentially going to recommend a second booster, which would be potentially the start of an annual program for people 65 and above,' Mr Hunt told reporters in Canberra.
'We're expecting that advice from ATAGI within the next three weeks, if not earlier.'
The fourth dose plan will be a major topic of discussion when Prime Minister Scott Morrison meets with state and territory leaders at Friday's national cabinet meeting.
It comes as the government announced $2.1 billion to prepare for the months ahead.
The plan will involved $1.2 billion to help protect residential aged care and disability care sectors, $356 million to protect vulnerable population groups and a further $571 million for vaccines.
Mr Hunt said a scheme which provided free rapid antigen tests for concession card holders would be extended until the end of July this year.”
The Covid cult just never gets tired. Can’t they relax and smell the roses?
