The Facts
Biden administration officials have told various news outlets that the White House is planning to urge Americans to get a COVID booster shot this fall in response to a spike in infections.
An anonymous official told Reuters: "We will be encouraging all Americans to get those boosters in addition to flu shots and RSV [Respiratory Syncytial Virus] shots.”
The Spin
Pro-establishment narrative
As summer turns into fall, COVID cases along with flu and RSV infections are expected to rise, and responsible adults should get their booster shots to look out for their health and the health of others. Respiratory viruses continue to mutate at a rapid rate, and new vaccines are required to keep up with these mutations. The COVID vaccines have saved countless lives, and taking boosters this fall will help protect Americans from new variants.
Establishment-critical narrative
Here we go again. The Biden admin. is back pushing big pharma’s latest shot to “protect” against new variants of COVID. It was understandable for people to “do their part” and take the first vaccine in 2021 after the dystopian lockdowns of 2020, but the developments of the last three years show that these vaccines are enriching big pharma and the political machine behind them. Don't be surprised if there aren't many people lining up for this latest booster this fall.
