Annual COVID Shot. Is it Inevitable?
In a recent interview, the newly appointed director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
In a recent interview, the newly appointed director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggested that the agency may soon come out with a recommendation for Americans to be vaccinated for COVID-19 every year.Mandy Cohen, MD, MPH, who was sworn in as the 20th CDC director on July 10, 2023,3 told Spectrum News:
We’re just on the precipice of that, so I don’t want to get ahead of where our scientists are here and doing that evaluation work, but yes we anticipate that COVID will become similar to flu shots, where it is going to be you get your annual flu shot and you get your annual COVID shot. We’re not quite there yet, but stay tuned. I think within the next couple of weeks, month we’re going to hear more from our experts on COVID shots.
Biden Administration Wants Annual COVID Booster Shots
This revelation by Dr. Cohen is hardly surprising. The drumbeat for pushing for an annual COVID shot for people in the United States has been growing louder and louder for at least a year now. On Sept. 6, 2022, Anthony Fauci, MD, then chief medical advisor to President Joe Biden and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said at a White House press briefing:
It is becoming increasingly clear that, looking forward with the COVID-19 pandemic, in the absence of a dramatically different variants, we likely are moving towards a path with a vaccination cadence similar to that of the annual influenza vaccine, with annual updated COVID-19 shots matched to the currently circulating strains for most of the population.
At the same briefing, the White House’s COVID-19 response coordinator, Ashish Jha, MD, MPH, said:
F]or a large majority of Americans, we are moving to a point where a single annual COVID shot should provide a high degree of protection against serious illness all year. That’s an important milestone.
Leaving no room for any misunderstanding, President Biden confirmed later that day in a statement:
This week, we begin a new phase in our COVID-19 response. We are launching a new vaccine—our first in almost two years—with a new approach. For most Americans, that means one COVID-19 shot, once a year, each fall. As the virus continues to change, we will now be able to update our vaccines annually to target the dominant variant. Just like your annual flu shot, you should get it sometime between Labor Day and Halloween.
Combination COVID/Influenza Shots Coming Soon
On Jan. 23, 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposed moving to an annual COVID booster shot, which would be given alongside the annual influenza vaccine. One of the main reasons for such a move would be for the sake of convenience.
“It would be easier [for primary care doctors and other health care providers] to encourage our patients to get one set of annual shots, rather than to count the number of boosters or have two separate shots that people have to obtain,” said Leana Wen, MD, a public health professor at George Washington University in Washington, DC. “Employers, nursing homes, and other facilities could offer the two shots together, and a combined shot may even be possible in the future.”
In 2022, the FDA granted Pfizer/BioNTech permission to fast track a combination COVID/influenza shot using mRNA technology. Moderna and other companies are also working on a combination COVID/influenza shot in anticipation of COVID shots being given annually like flu shots.
Pfizer and other companies are complaining that consumer demand for COVID shots has been rapidly dropping off, threatening projected profits. NVIC president and co-founder Barbara Loe Fisher told The Epoch Times last week that, “The companies need a new market for the COVID product and they can get that by combining it with the influenza vaccine and making sure the CDC recommends that everyone get a COVID booster annually.”
Own a piece of libertarian activist history! In 2013, the police accountability organization Cop Block produced a one-time run of "Shiny Badges" modeled after the Keene, New Hampshire police department badge from a manufacturer of "real" police badges. The heavy-weight badge features the Cop Block logo and the words: "Shiny Badges Don't Grant Extra Rights,” reminding the police of the incredible delusion required to believe a shiny badge gives one an exception from morality or the "right" to imprison peaceful people for victimless crimes among other immoral transgressions required for the job.
The Art of Liberty Foundation acquired Five (5) of these at PorcFest 2023, and we are auctioning these off to support the foundation. You can buy here for $250 OR "Go Paid" as a $250 Founding Member on SubStack to receive your shiny badge, an Everything Bundle, AND a One-Year Founding Membership on the Art Of Liberty Foundation's Important News Substack. These are the only Cop Block Shiny Badges available on the internet and when they are gone... They are Gone!

It's about time all of you so-called freedom lovers woke up to the fact that there are no 'viruses' and stop supporting the narrative by continually arguing the toss over the merits of various 'vaccines'. Is it maybe possible that they're all toxic?
You don’t get it. Lots of articles and tests prove what you are saying. Many many people know. But the globalists are going to keep on their path to keep depopulating. Lots of people don’t keep up with the truth. They can’t confront it. Others cannot confront not being taken care of by their ‘overlords’. Then still others are so low in tone they are working towards going ‘out’ and don’t even know it,....like alcoholics, drug addicts, people oppressed. The trouble with these people is they take people around them down with them. They actually don’t want to know.
The best thing to do is be happy with yourself and what you are doing. Get rid of people that put you down. Read the book, ‘You are The Mountain’
Feel good about life. Help others. Don’t be afraid. We are much more powerful.
