Former President Donald Trump says he will likely not get a COVID-19 booster shot as the Biden administration weighs proposals to roll out boosters to already-vaccinated Americans.
"I feel like I'm in good shape from that standpoint-I probably won't," Trump told The Wall Street Journal's Michael Bender. "I'll look at stuff later on. I'm not against it, but it's probably not for me."
In an August interview on Fox Business, Trump denounced booster shots as "a money-making operation for Pfizer," the maker of one of the three COVID-19 vaccines authorized for use in the US.
The New York Times reported on Friday that leaders of the Food & Drug Administration - which already greenlit boosters for some immunocompromised Americans - and the Centers for Disease Control are urging the White House to pump the brakes on its plans to roll out boosters to all Americans, saying they need more time to collect data.

My guess is he's just playing to his bran-dead followers.

What moron is ever going to listen to you anyways? You started us on this path of COVID hell, and the actions you did initially while in office made it all worse for all of us...

(16,485 posts)But okay for his buddy, Ron DeathSantis to push Regeneron as a treatment because his donor owns a lot of stock in it.
HYPOCRITE!
