GOP's House Judiciary Committee members, led by Rep. Gym Jordan, tweet that booster shots don't work

Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee questioned the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination booster shots on Twitter on Thursday as the Omicron variant continues to spread across the US.

"If the booster shots work, why don't they work?" tweeted the official account of the 19 Republican members of the committee, whose ranking member is Rep. Gym Jordan of Ohio.

In the now-deleted tweet, the members don't describe their grounds for questioning the effectiveness of the booster.

A follow-up tweet linked to an ABC News report on record numbers of COVID-19 infections in the US due to the Omicron surge.

I’d be willing to bet they’re all vaccinated and boosted
