California Ready to Provide Pfizer Boosters Now That They’ve Been Approved

COVID Vaccine coronavirusPress release from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH):

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) released the following joint statement from California Health and Human Services Agency Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly and California Department of Public Health Director and State Public Health Officer Dr. Tomás J. Aragón on the FDA’s approval of Pfizer BioNTech boosters:

“Vaccines are safe and effective, and they’re how we end this pandemic. That’s why California supports our federal partners’ determination to provide Pfizer BioNTech boosters, specifically for those over the age of 65, individuals 18 through 64 years of age at high risk of severe disease, and individuals 18 through 64 years of age whose frequent institutional or occupational exposure puts them at higher risk. The state has built the infrastructure necessary to distribute vaccines to eligible Californians statewide on day one.

“It continues to be incredibly important that unvaccinated Californians get vaccinated as soon as possible to protect both themselves and their loved ones. As part of the long-established, multi-step process CDPH follows for every COVID-19 vaccine related decision, we will take recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and the Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup on administrating booster does before taking action. CDPH is working with local partners and health care providers to ensure California is ready to immediately begin administering booster doses eligible Californians once these recommendations have been made.”

Johnson & Johnson said its Covid-19 booster shot is 94% effective when administered two months after the first dose.
It also increases antibody levels by four to six times compared with one shot alone, J&J said.
A J&J booster dose given six months out from the first shot appears to be potentially even more protective against Covid, the company said. No link. Google it!

Yes, get ready.
Now is NOT the time to tell them “I told you so.”
Listen to them carefully. Listening provides HALF of the comfort they need.
Then starting giving them videos and such to bring them up to speed.
You cannot unload YEARS worth of information on them at once. You need to start them on their journey and help them along their way.
It is ESSENTIAL that they discover things for themselves so that they can start putting all the pieces together; just like you did on your journey.

After getting really ill with a respiratory flu some years ago I get a flu shot every year and have not had anything close to that bad again. I also got the pneumonia vaccine and will get the Pfizer booster asap. I take meds every day for a number of conditions and have succeeded in outliving my father and brother by over 25 years.

As to your other point farther down. Tetanus is like 8 or 10 years. Just heard the local kzyx corona report & the doctor basically said after as little as 6 months covid vaccine could be less than 70% effective. So basically a shot every year. No thanks!

Yes, because it was such a hassle to go get a shot, wait 15 minutes and then be back home. All in about 45 minutes. Oh the horror!! Ever heard of flu shot. Lots of people get them every year.

{edit} the CDPH and {edit} the CDC. And {edit} and the XXL’s that got us here!

Living large!

Look. The vax not only fails to stop infection or spread, it kills! Whoo hoo! People just love that death rate and shaming the “unvaxxed”

But what about all those deaths counted as “unvaxxed?”

“The agency (CDC) is counting anyone who died within the first 14 days post-injection as unvaccinated.

Not only does this inaccurately inflate the unvaccinated death toll, but it also hides the real dangers of the COVID shots, as the vast majority of deaths from these shots occur within the first two weeks.

“https://hannenabintuherland.com/financialcrisis/cdc-now-lists-vaccinated-deaths-as-unvaccinated/

It’s become an endless nightmare thanks to the “large” portion of our population that refuse to use their heads! {And for the love of God quit expecting people to mask outdoors!! Are you {edit} dumb? Yes.}

  The Neighs have it – This from NIH.gov:

 Ivermectin prophylaxis versus no ivermectin prophylaxis

Three studies involving 738 participants evaluated ivermectin for COVID-19 prophylaxis among health care workers and COVID-19 contacts. Meta-analysis of these 3 trials, assessing 738 participants, found that ivermectin prophylaxis among health care workers and COVID-19 contacts probably reduces the risk of COVID-19 infection by an average of 86% (79%–91%) (3 trials, 738 participants; aRR 0.14, 95% CI 0.09–0.21; 5.0% vs. 29.6% contracted COVID-19, respectively; low-certainty evidence; downgraded due to study design limitations and few included trials) (Figure ​(Figure15).15). In 2 trials involving 538 participants, no severe adverse events were recorded (SoF Table ​Table44).

The findings indicate with moderate certainty that ivermectin treatment in COVID-19 provides a significant survival benefit.
    
Given the evidence of efficacy, safety, low cost, and current death rates, ivermectin is likely to have an impact on health and economic outcomes of the pandemic across many countries. Ivermectin is not a new and experimental drug with an unknown safety profile. It is a WHO “Essential Medicine” already used in several different indications, in colossal cumulative volumes. Corticosteroids have become an accepted standard of care in COVID-19, based on a single RCT of dexamethasone.1 If a single RCT is sufficient for the adoption of dexamethasone, then a fortiori the evidence of 2 dozen RCTs supports the adoption of ivermectin.
Ivermectin is likely to be an equitable, acceptable, and feasible global intervention against COVID-19. Health professionals should strongly consider its use, in both treatment and prophylaxis.

Yeah and the crazy part is that it was so obvious to anyone willing to look outside their echo chamber indoctrination bubble of bias media and outright propaganda.
The absolute creepiest part is when the vaccine cult is seemingly disappointed when positive news like this is mentioned, or when the fatality rate is reduced, or severe disease is reassessed and reduced. All while telling the unvaccinated to never go to the hospital, celebrating when people die. These types of people are downright sick in the head, and anyone that’s studied communist or fascist revolutions knows that these are the primary types that contribute to things absolutely just falling apart. So sad, I really was unaware that I shared society with so many like this. But that’s how it was then, that’s how it is now, and the remainder just cower and don’t speak up. Shameful

Agree completely. Not one person in the vaccine cult can answer the question: how many people have died or been seriously injured from the vaccine? Yet, like mindless sheep, they incessantly push this shit and pretend VAERS has ZERO credibility, while simutaneously calling the very same people credible with regards to “vaccine” safety.

Because it has potent antiviral properties, also with dengue and west Nile along with others.

Obviously no one has explained to you what that PubMed indexes studies from many journals, including open publishing with hardly a standard for acceptance. Just because it appears there doesn’t mean it is either valid or useful. THEY ARE NOT ENDORSED BY NIH, CDC FOR FDA.

In this case, not only was retracted data used , these authors failed to mention their place in Bird-group, whose very name (British Ivermectin Recommendation Development Group) shows their bias. They intended to find a result and can not be relied on to be unbiased.

“In fairness, what I can say from this meta-analysis is that, just like the case with hydroxychloroquine a year ago, it is possible that ivermectin has some clinically meaningful effect on COVID-19 disease progression and survival. It’s not particularly likely or plausible in light of the pharmacokinetics problem mentioned above, in which huge doses of ivermectin would be required to reach the same concentrations in the plasma that caused antiviral effects in the in vitro studies that I discussed above, but it’s not impossible. ” https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/ivermectin-is-the-new-hydroxychloroquine-take-2/?mc_cid=a29ac0a4a7&mc_eid=f12bb86e1e

And now for some good news: SANTA MONICA, Calif. (NewsNation Now) — As the number of cases of the coronavirus continues to rise daily, California, the nation’s most populous state, now has the lowest COVID-19 case rate in the U.S.
Health officials in California credit mitigation and the fact that more than 75% of the state’s population is vaccinated, one of the country’s highest vaccination rates, for the decrease in hospital cases. However, they stress that the pandemic is hardly over, and winter is coming.
As of Tuesday, the number of COVID-19 patients in California hospitals is down. (9/22/21)

Doesn’t anyone worry that in the beginning it was two weeks then a vaccine with two shots, then million and million of people jabbed then approval of said shot but only the one shot has had fda approval (like they would disapprove after millions given already) now it’s three shots and another one for the one only shot. Seems to me your all test subjects till they get it right. But hey put down the folks who are saying something not right! Force people to get the jab as if it’s the cure! But keep your masks on we don’t want to jeopardize the the folks who have had the protection. Huummm makes sense to me….

This is how the pharmaceutical companies are making their money…… I just got a letter from my health insurance ….my plan is going to c
Go up in price on November 1 by 52% then go up again in 2022 another 25% over and above the first 50% for a total of 90%. ” For Example , if your premium is $1.00, add the 52% increase in Nov.2021 which tots $1.52. Then add the 25% in July 2022, your premium would be $ 1.90….
Who the hell gets to make these kinds of decisions and gets to double their cost and get away with it ? Thats absurd to think any other business would still be in business a day later…. yet medical insurance , thanks to Obama, Pelosi, and the rest of the free loading politicians…. we get to take a bigger tool in the south end. And pay 2 times the price for shittier Dr’s and care. Take Providence health for example. No Staff and they won’t let you say a second longer than the time they think is necessary.

A team of Israeli scientists say that a drug previously used in an uncontrolled fashion to treat HIV has a direct antiviral effect against coronavirus, sending patients home virus-free within only a few days.
Code Pharma, which is headquartered in the Netherlands but has its research and development office in Israel and an Israeli CEO, recently completed a Phase I trial of its drug Codivir for use against coronavirus. On Monday, the Israeli research team that will support the Phase II trial applied for permission from the Helsinki Committee to move forward at the Barzilai Medical Center.
The Phase II study, which will involve around 150 patients and is expected to launch in the next month, will also take place in Spain, Brazil, and South Africa. http://www.jpost.com 9/22/21

So if Covid-19 vaccinations cause miscarriages, then under Texas new abortion law, any one who aids or abets or intends to aid or abet can be sued and fined $10,000. So providers of the Covid-19 vaccination ie: doctors, nurses, hospitals, clinics and really the U.S and Texas governments can be sued. That could also include the companies that make and distribute the vaccine. I see a money maker here lawyers.

ATLANTA—Urging Americans to reconsider their current precautions in light of the grim discovery, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention researchers warned Thursday of a new giant Covid-19 variant large enough to swallow a grown man whole. “This is a mammoth monster of a virus, big enough and strong enough to consume a full-sized adult male in one swift gulp,” said CDC director Rochelle Walensky, adding that the first confirmed victim of the A.7 SARS-CoV-2 variant was a man in El Paso, Texas of whom nothing was left but his shoes. http://www.theonion.com
