CDC At ‘Precipice’ Of Recommending Annual Covid-19 Shots
Pharmaceutical companies also developing combo vaccines to handle both COVID-19 and Influenza
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is on track to recommend annual COVID-19 shots for Americans, according to the agency’s new director, Dr. Mandy Cohen.
“We’re just on the precipice of that, so I don’t want to get ahead of where our scientists are here and doing that evaluation work, but yes we anticipate that COVID will become similar to flu shots, where it is going to be you get your annual flu shot and you get your annual COVID shot,” Cohen told Spectrum News, adding “We’re not quite there yet, but stay tuned. I think within the next couple of weeks, month we’re going to hear more from our experts on COVID shot.”
The proposal, which would make COVID-19 shots akin to the flu vaccine, is expected to be finalized and announced in September despite concerns raised by critics regarding the lack of clinical trial data supporting the vaccines and the efficacy of the boosters.
In April the CDC scaled back recommendations for people of all ages to receive a primary vaccine series and at least one booster – while countries such as England have stopped recommending or allowing certain people to get boosters, period. According to critics, the CDC should further scale back recommendations – particularly for those who are young and/or healthy until more data is available from trials and studies.
“When you look at tracking data for the young, the rates of either infection or vaccination—in other words, the rate at which people have some level of circulating immunity—is quite high. And so the idea that that group needs to have a vaccination series now, without current research in that particular population, I don’t think is scientifically valid,” said Dr. David McCune, an oncologist, in a statement to the Epoch Times.
The CDC’s plan ignores the fact that the vaccines have ‘faced challenges’ against the newer COVID-19 variants, while clinical data for newer, reformulated shots has yet to be made public. The updated shots which are supposed to target the XBB.1.5 variant are expected to be rolled out around September, and will exclude components of the original shot designed for the Wuhan variant.
“Immunity from both vaccines and infection wanes over time. The only way to stay ahead of the virus is to continue to update the composition of our vaccines and administer them in a regular cadence. Although this strategy is critical, with our current generation of vaccines, it also requires immense resources for mounting frequent vaccination campaigns—at a time when antivaccination sentiment continues to grow and the public’s appetite for regular vaccinations has waned,” Health Secretary Xavier Becerra and former White House official Dr. Ashish Jha wrote in an editorial.
“Next-generation vaccines and treatments are needed if we are to break the cycle of responding to new variants as they appear: we need tools that can improve our bodies’ ability to stop infections, reduce transmission, build longer-lasting immunity, and target parts of the virus that are less likely to evolve. Ideally, such vaccines and treatments would provide better protection, enabling us to avoid disruptions of our lives and continue to enjoy the activities we value.”
Pharmaceutical companies are also developing combination vaccines to handle both COVID-19 and influenza.
“The companies need a new market for the COVID product and they can get that by combining it with the influenza vaccine and making sure the CDC recommends that everyone get a COVID booster annually,” said Barbara Loe Fisher, co-founder and president of the National Vaccine Information Center, in an email to the Epoch Times.
“If CDC officials recommend that everyone get an annual COVID booster shot,” she added, “it will only further increase public distrust in vaccines and call into question the scientific and moral integrity of public health policy.”

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)

Has anyone actually isolated the hypothesized SARS-Cov-2 yet? — Right. Didn’t think so. Generating a hypothetical genetic sequence; storing that on a computer’s hard drive; and placing that computer in a secure room in a basement somewhere, does not meet the definition of the process of “isolation”.
Antivaccination sentiment, you ask?
Oh, gee…I just don’t know! Should I get the “flu” jab? Should I get the new alleged Covid-19 yearly jab? Should I get both of them? Should I get both of them at the same time, one in the left deltoid, the other in the right deltoid?
Am I going to be advised to sit in a chair for 15 minutes to see if I don’t immediately “die suddenly”?
Now that both jabs contain the potentially deadly mRNA technology, will I finally be informed by the CDC’s alleged “experts” of exactly what toxic peptides will be manufactured by cells throughout my body, immediately making me sick and activating my immune system in response (fat chance of that)?
Will my immune system still try to rid my body of these toxins by shedding them via all of my body fluids including my moist breath, saliva, perspiration, tears, nasal secretions, urine and semen (rather, vagnal secretions, if I just so happen to be a genuine, unadulterated female), so I can secretly continue to try to infect everyone around me, including those unvaxxed idiots, to compromise their immune systems as much as mine has been compromised since my first alleged Covid-19 jab (just kidding; I wasn’t “that” ignorant)?
And, if I get really sick from the lipid nanoparticle mRNA envelope technology in these jabs, will certain highly astute physicians still be able to see the nanotechnology graphene and other structures in their darkfield microscopes, along with my now abnormal blood cells and then cleanse my blood within a few days to eliminate all of my disease symptoms caused by these jabs, so I can live a few more days, months, years ?
If that’s a go, let’s do it! The jabs are free, right…paid in full by our taxes. with a bit of grift/profit built into the equation?
On second thought: better you than me. I’ll continue to keep myself well isolated from y’all, while we continue to go through this contrived global population reduction, in support of the NWO/”Great Reset”. Give my disregards to Klaus, Billy-boy and gang.
