Covid cases in the U.S. are continuing to plummet, and health officials are reportedly discussing rolling out annual vaccine shots to keep the virus controlled long term.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is considering making a second booster shot - which would be a fourth shot overall for a vast majority of vaccinated Americans. Data is currently being reviewed regarding the shots, the Journal reports. While there are no guarantees, it is likely the FDA will authorize fourth shots for Americans in the future.

Regulators are also reportedly weighing whether this fourth booster will be the start of annual Covid-19 vaccinations.

It is not yet clear whether the annual shots would be mandated or not.

The news comes just days after an undercover reporter from Project Veritas allegedly caught an FDA executive on camera saying Covid boosters would become annual requirements and that the Biden administration has financial incentives for pushing the vaccine. Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe warned that the move posed 'serious ethical issues'.

Conspicuously absent from the FDA's consideration here is the need for getting a fourth dose.  How about first explaining the reason why someone would need a fourth dose before assuming they would actually want one.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Not only not backing off the Narrative, but hitting the same button again and (possibly) expecting different results.

The very definition of stupid.
 
The same reasoning behind communism, It never worked, but that was because they didn't do it hard enough, right?
Keep hitting that button.

Only now the totalitarians have tools that past totalitarians only dreamed of.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

More importantly, absent is any actual science proving it does any good. Which, if we believe the data coming out elsewhere, there is no proof it lasts any more than a couple of months, at best, and each peak of efficacy goes down with each dose.

But our public health officials act like they make a commission with each dose, so they won't talk about that.
