Where you got the information from to make a statement about an elusive vaccine is beyond me. In Israel they already vaccinated 30% of the population, more than half of them with the 2nd dose and it is not looking good, at least not as they initially expected. Now they are talking about waiting for a 3rd dose. "The head of US pharmaceutical company Pfizer said Tuesday the company is working on booster shots to help its vaccine protect against coronavirus variants, as mutated strains of the virus continue to spread worldwide. US biotechnology firm Moderna said Monday it will test adding a booster of its vaccine, making it three shots in total, to help it defend against a South African variant." https://www.timesofisrael.com/pfizer-moderna-both-testing-3rd-dose-booster-shots-to-combat-virus-variants/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen the news reports on the mass gatherings at 2 prominent orthodox Jewish rabbi funerals at the weekend. How many more have happened like this. That's just asking for trouble Don't see any scientists saying anywhere in any news reports that any variants so far can bypass any of current Vaccines to the point where they are rendered ineffective. In the report you have put up netenyahoo made a statement then admitted he isn't a scientist Scientists have said that EVENTUALLY the virus will mutate to a point where they have to tweak the current Vaccines. Same as the flu. That's the nature of the beast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
