So, just a general message to all the commenters who are eye-rolling this:

Viruses mutate, and COVID has mutated continuously since it has been in the wild. All those shots did serve a purpose to continue to provide protection, and that this one will too.

You're tired? Viruses don't get tired. It's not only a good thing, it's a miracle that we even are able to keep up with these mutations and almost completely mitigate the risk of, oh, just death and life-long debilitating symptoms with a 15 minute visit to the doctor to get a shot every so often.

So the government will fund it with tax money, and pharma companies will sell it back to the government for “undisclosed” amount. Did i get it right? Oh what capitalism will do for our collective good.

Republicans will fight him on this, because somehow they’ll find fault in this if a DEMOCRAT does it.

If the government funds the research and development of a vaccine then any taxpayer should get it for free. None of this handing money to a pharma company only for them to sell it back to us bullshit.

Every day i'm thankful to the people who voted Biden/Harris and ousted the criminal fascist trump admin. THANK YOU from Canada.

They are already working on a new booster that should be out at the end of September, but I don't know if it is targeted enough for the new dominant Eris variant, whose main mutation allows it to better escape prior immune detection, or with the emerging Pirola variant, which has a concerning 30 new mutations whose effects are still being investigated.

So, an entirely new vaccine to deal with the newer mutated variants would be great. And with the advances in mRNA vaccine development over the past few years, it shouldn't take long to make a new vaccine either.

I'm immunocompromised and have to stop some of my drugs to take the vaccines. There's no way I can do it again.
