If people are vaccinated but not getting sick or even contracting the Delta variant, why do we need a booster? They are scamming. THey been wanting to put out a booster vaccine since the vaccines hit the market.


That was the plan all along. Everyone is gonna need a booster going forward at this rate. I seen this coming from a mile away really.

There's still room for improvement since it's a fact that the effectiveness has waned some with new Delta variant.

Additionally the boosters have an updated mRNA sequence to better match the mutations on the spike protiens so that they can bind easier to them.

I got J&J as my first shot and decided to get pfizer a month later.

Got J&J at CVS then went through the state of Maryland to get pfizer.

All I see is no one who got the mRNA vaccines have died from catching the delta variant. This is a straight cash grab.

They said People who took the J&J gotta take another shot since they saying it might bypass the variants.

Has, or hasn't the efficacy for the pfizer dipped somewhat with the Delta variant?

The efficacy of the first shot was at 72% for the original wild type strain and has dipped to 30% with the Delta variant.

This is a respiratory virus like influenza, where functional immunity (instead of sterilizing immunity) is the only current option. And like other respiratory viruses, scheduled boosters is pretty much expected.

Unless I am missing something, there was a study last week that stated the mRNA vaccines could fight off the COVID19 for years
Pfizer and Moderna Vaccines Likely to Produce Lasting Immunity, Study Finds
