Moderna CEO predicts that existing vaccines will be much less effective at tackling Omicron than earlier strains of coronavirus

Have you been vaccinated? I am, but I won’t get the booster shot

I hate Corona, may Allah protect it from us but I LOVE remote working. I have all of a sudden much more energy by commuting less. No more exhausting office politics

Yeah I got double doses but no more for free, wallahi I will not submit to more this is turning into an Orwellian nightmare

Not vaxxed. Waiting it out. Glad I made that decision.

Me too! Alhamdulilah

 

[Keo]

So some of those that got the vaccine won't opt for boosters and those that were planning to get the vaccine now find out that it won't even be effective against this new variant.

This title is misleading.

If you click the link, the head of Moderna states that they think that all vaccines may be less effective against Omicron.

But they also stress that this is their thinking.

At no point did he say that Moderna vaccines don’t work against Omicron.

Us

Covid be like

What about your relatives and friends?

Why did you take the "vaccine" in the first place?

He said they need to modify their vaccine against this strain, it’s basically telling us this shit won’t work against Omricon. Which is why everyone is like WTF.

He literally stated that he doesn’t know how less effective the vaccines will be.

I attached his statement above.

Saying there is a “material drop” in vaccine efficacy is basically telling us they’ll attempt to modify the vaccine. According to financial times the high number of Omicron mutations on the spike protein, which the virus uses to infect human cells, and the rapid spread of the variant in South Africa, suggests the current crop of vaccines may need to be modified next year.

Read between the lines.

Read the headlines and the quotes, not the speculation.

Dude when the chief head of a pharmaceutical company tells you there will be a “material drop” in vaccine efficacy and says what’s the need for even waiting for data?

What does that suggest?

 

[Abdalla]

Why did you take the "vaccine" in the first place?

Or else I couldn’t travel, too many restrictions on non vaccinated people. You can’t even enter a restaurant if you’re not vaccinated or tested. Can’t get myself tested every day.

It means that he believes that his vaccine, similar to Delta outbreak, will be less effective against Omicron than it generally is.

There was a drop in vaccine strength due to Delta and this is no different.

The South African doctors that have been dealing with Omicron longer than everyone else have stated that it’s mild.

If they are going to make life hell for unvaccinated people then you might as well get vaccinated. I've already got my two vaccines done, they're now asking for people to do the booster shot. If it's gonna make my life easier I'll just do it.

You can"t fight the government on this, they will win in the end like always.

No that is not at all what he’s trying to suggest

He literally said it’s not going to be on the same level as delta even, that there will be a material drop and what’s the point for waiting for data. What are you reading?

I still get spasms on my thigh many months after being double vaccinated. I never experienced spasms in my life. No way in hell will I get a third jab.

I can't speak up in public, otherwise I will be called a conspiracy theorist "spewing right wing talking points" and "weaponizing your made up side effects". I thought we were supposed to talk about and report about what we go through when taking medication and other treatments so they can make them better? Instead, you are labelled an "anti vaxxer", as i was by a bystander when I attended a protest.
