[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It can't be healthy for the body to get 4 shots of the same drug (or varied version) over a one year period.[/quote]

Guess you don’t have any children. The immunization for brand new immune systems, ie babies, is much much more than four shots.[/quote]

Yeah but you know when you start the shots how many the kids needs.  They aren’t new vaccines and have been around for ages and are for diseases that can really really harm children.   It’s not like you’re going to find out in a few months that you thought you only needed 2 rounds of the polio vaccine but really you need more.  In fact when we first received the covid vaccine most people thought it was 2 shots and done!  [/quote]

I don’t know the history of the polio vaccine, but I imagine they tweaked the dosage in the first years after its discovery. Covid is a brand new virus that continues to mutate. It will take awhile to figure out the protocol. [/quote]

Yeah but that is the downside to the expedited process for the Covid vaccine development/approval- they had enough info to assess the short term safety and efficacy but not answer the long term questions.  For elderly folks, who cares- not a real need to worry about any long term effects of repeated vaccinations and keeping this group out of the hospitals as much as possible benefits society overall.  But for lower risk age groups, I think it makes more sense to figure this out before pushing repeated boosters on the fly.[/quote]
