Whither booster shots

 

 

Now they are saying a third shot of vaccine is needed to be immunized against the new mutilated covid 19 viruses.

At the beginning, they said it was a break through that they finally discovered a vaccine for the covid- 19 virus.  And they were saying all sorts of efficacies for the various vaccines -   95%, 90%, 75%, 52% and what not. Then, they said another shot of vaccine was needed to have real effect on the virus. And now they are saying yet another shot of vaccine is needed to efficiently create an antibody against the virus. A new virus now that they call it as Omicron. They call the new vaccine jab  as the booster shot.  I wonder how many booster shots we are going to have. Will it end here? I don’t think so, but I sincerely, hope so!

Why are they not improving on the vaccines that currently exist, instead of requesting for further vaccination? They may argue the booster shot is the improvisation. Okay, well and good, but pessimistically, speaking, I think there will be further pleading of getting more shots of other vaccines or ‘boosters’ with new names. I hope financial gains are not a consideration here.

Let’s wait and see! Fingers crossed!
