Hence the recommendation for booster after 8 months...

German pharmaceutical giant BioNTech, which jointly with Pfizer developed the first COVID-19 vaccine to be granted emergency use authorization by U.S. regulators, saw its profits surge in the second quarter of 2021.

In an earnings report released on Monday, the Mainz-based company said that it made a net profit of nearly $3.3 billion between April and June. This boosted net profits in the first half of 2021 to over $4.6 billion, compared to a net loss of almost $167 million in the first six months of 2020.

Signaling. He wants the anti-science/conspiracy-theorist group of conservatives, because it's become a significant percentage of the Republican base. When he runs for President in 2024, he'll need them to not consider him a RINO.

He's got @ABM , so I think he's on the right track for that group.

Texas Lt Governor blames Covid surge in Texas on African Americans

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

But why?

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

But why?

Many reasons.

"I already got the shot, it'll be good enough"
"I reacted badly to the 2nd shot, I think the 3rd will be worse"
"I'll do it later"
"I'll wait until they give me free hotdogs to get the booster"

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

We know this already, but people are idiots.

I'm guessing it will be about 50-60% of those vaccinated will still get the booster shots. Could be a problem.

As for Vaccine Passports, I wonder how that will work if you need to be current on your vaccines, or if there's a time your "passport" expires and you have to "renew" it with another shot. They will have to come up with a QR code nationwide or some other way (microchip?) to allow freedom of movement contingent on the vaccine passport.

What do you guys think this latest surge in cases will mean for the upcoming college football season?

Good question. I've heard a lot of talk that colleges are struggling with tests. It's probably a fair guess to say it'll be a shit show.

No one is getting QR codes or otherwise tattooed on them or microchips implanted in them. Stop with the fear mongering.

How can one check quickly if the vaccine passport is up to date, now that we are in the era of booster shots?

Access can be granted en masse with an RFID microchip, versus manually verifying vaccine status.

Kids CAN wear masks if they (& their parents) choose to.

Sports doesn't seem to care much about Covid anymore. They may say they do, but stadiums have been full for sporting events for a minute now.

Deliberately obtuse. Making shit up that makes no sense.

Just scan your phone... Very simple.

Nope, microchips in the brain are the only way to do this.

My buddy lives in Germany and he said the way it's being done there is all on an app. You download the app then go to the local Walgreens (or whatever), they verify your ID and status, then you get a code that activates the app. The app itself has a bar code that is scannable.

Phone apps. A card. We need to stop with the they're going to tattoo/microchip us bullshit. This kind of shit is why there are people out there not getting vaccinated.
