FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO) – The new Covid-19 booster shots have been approved by the CDC and have arrived in Fort Wayne.

This new booster shot targets the omicron subvariants, BA-4 and BA-5, according to Fort Wayne’s NBC.  You must be 12 or older if you plan to get a Pfizer shot and 18 or older to get a Moderna shot.

Health experts encourage people to get the booster, especially if they haven’t had any of the boosters yet.  Experts also say to pay special attention if you have received a booster.

Allen County Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Gutwein says “People that feel they are at higher risk, meaning they have other health diseases like COPD or lung disease or heart disease or diabetes, those people should definitely be getting a booster vaccine.”

The CDC says anyone that has been vaccinated and has been recently infected should wait three months after infection to get this booster.

According to the CDC, Covid-19 cases across the nation have dropped, however, deaths per day are at 400 which is a lot higher than last spring.

Avoid these shots at all costs. Darth Fraudci and that insane white house spokes hole have been subpoenaed for their communications with the social media propagandists urging them to suppress information thy didn’t like olr agree with. There is ample evidence the shots do not work as advertised. There is ample evidence that natural immunity is far superior to the shot. There is ample evidence the shot caused many adverse reactions. In the past if only 5% of the adverse events took place of those for the covid shot the whole scheme would have been abandoned. But we go on blindly taking the Darth Fraudci shot at the expense of the us government. Just because it is free doesn’t make it free of very bad outcomes. Come on you doctors. Study and make good decisions with your patients. Stop blindly following the Darth man down the drain of good health care.
