From here: U.K. Becomes Latest Country to Ban Covid Boosters for Under-50s – The Daily ScepticPeter’s Newsletter is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. “Covid booster doses will no longer be available to healthy people under 50 from next month, the Government has said. The reason given by the JCVI, the Government’s vaccine advisory body, is because “the transition continues away from a pandemic emergency response towards pandemic recovery”. A number of countries have imposed similar bans on boosters for healthy under-50s, a trend that has been linked by observers to safety concerns, though public authorities have not confirmed this. The U.K. will continue to offer the first two doses to over-16s.”
It’s a Pyrrhic victory. Timed nicely with the end of the clinical trials that most of the world allowed itself to be coerced, shamed, forced, manipulated, nudged, guilt-tripped and gaslighted into. (I know there were “pre-approval” CTs but the world is now waking up to the realisation of having been in what must be the largest clinical trials of experimental injectables in the history of clinical trials)
