FDA Clears New COVID-19 Vaccines in Bid to Counter Waning Effectiveness - Global Research

The Facts
According to a modeling forecast released on Thursday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), COVID, RSV, and influenza will likely impact the US healthcare system simultaneously this fall and winter.
The CDC predicts either staggered peaks of moderate flu, RSV, and COVID activity or possibly overlapping peaks of moderate COVID activity along with severe flu and RSV activity during this year's respiratory virus season.
The Spin
Pro-establishment narrative
With the threat of another tripledemic looming, it's important to take prevention steps and get vaccinated against severe respiratory illnesses. As the country witnesses an uptick, we can turn the tables on this upcoming tripledemic and reduce hospitalizations tremendously by getting the latest boosters.
Establishment-critical narrative
The FDA has approved the new COVID vaccines without any humans involved in the clinical trials. It's bizarre to believe that the vaccines are an excellent match to protect against the tripledemic when preliminary tests have been conducted only on mice.
