Great news. The UK is the first country on earth to approve a new vaccine for omicron. Moderna just got approval.

>The results of experiments on 437 people showed the updated vaccine was safe and gave better immune protection against newer variants.
>Levels of antibodies that were able to stick to and disable Omicron (BA.1) were eight times higher with the new vaccine than Moderna's old one.
>Tests against more recent Omicron variants (BA.4 and BA.5), which are causing the UK's current wave, also showed higher levels of protection with the updated vaccine.
>However, while there is better protection against known variants, it is uncertain what we will be facing in the coming months and exactly how well the updated vaccine will perform.
It went through rigorous testing on 437 people.
Aiden Jackson
437 good goyim you mean
Benjamin Cox
>It will be only distributed to the elderly.
Tyler Morgan
Hehe. They're at it again.
Carter Lewis
437 people was all the people they could find who were still worried about covid...
Camden Richardson
Only because it doesn't end with rope.
Adrian Evans
Hehe.

They are just getting a minorly effective prophylactic injection for a seasonal strain almost over 2 years old now?
Wasn't the entire point of this new "vaccine" that they could pump them out quickly?
Michael Roberts
They can't all be saved user, simply put, there's too many people.
Wyatt Phillips
It's over chuderinos
Jose Brooks
In the UK, the following people will be offered some form of booster:
health and social care staff
everyone aged 50 and over
carers who are over the age of 16
people over five whose health puts them at greater risk, this includes pregnant women
people over five who share a house with somebody with a weakened immune system
Originally those aged 50-65 were not going to be jabbed. However, the immunisation campaign has been expanded because of the fast spread of variants, uncertainty about how the virus will mutate and the expectation that we will be more social this winter than in previous years - giving the virus more chance to spread.
Who gets a winter booster?
Moderna is not the only company updating its vaccines, Pfizer has also been developing vaccines that can target Omicron.
Owen Hall
still not taking it
Henry Adams
They (superannuated plebes) were always the primary age demographic for removal. The rest are just added bonuses.
Ryan Rivera
So the vaccine they were forcing on people didn't work.
Andrew Perry
Still never gonna take it.
Logan Garcia
Cool. Not taking it.
Blake Morgan
>carers who are over the age of 16
