Marty MaKary: Why the FDA Does Not Support COVID Boosters Forever

This all sounds perfectly reasonable to me, for whatever that's worth...which isn't much.

   Some important bits:

Fourth, some argue that Covid shots are needed for those who live with or take care of immunocompromised or elderly people. But no company has ever submitted data to the FDA to prove that Covid shots, which do not halt transmission, prevent caregivers from infecting vulnerable people. Accordingly, the FDA has never allowed companies to advertise that claim. [My emphasis]

Seems a bit like burying the lede to me...

   This is one of the main points of contention between the left and the right. Conservatives have argued, since just about the beginning, that we didn't have sufficient evidence in favor of the crucial claim that the vax significantly decreased transmission. It seems to me that the powers that be have been astonishingly cagey about this point. I expect that if the evidence were there, they would shout it from the rooftops. The very fact that they've been cagey about it is telling.

   Look. Like many or most other people, I just want to know the truth about this. There's obviously still a strong case to be made for the vax even if it doesn't prevent transmission. Just be honest about it.

   Some on the right have gone around the bend about the vax, of course--e.g. many still argue that the vax is killing people in their millions. So that's not helping...

   Anyway: just be honest.

   How hard is that?
