Don’t live your life in fear (of the vaccine).

Thanks for proving my point that facts don't matter, tho.

If you want an honest answer to your question, it's because we're in the middle of a global pandemic which has increased the overall death rate up 17% higher than any other year. I'm not entirely sure how money factors into it other than you're making an assumption with no actual evidence to support your claim.

It's a fantastic assumption but it's not the best one to address the Occam's razor.

Especially with 4.4 million dead worldwide.

The shot does not prevent contracting, spreading, or dying from the virus. Whats the point in getting it when theres a 1% chance of dying or getting a terrible side effect to "protect" against a virus with a less than 1% chance of dying? What would be the point of a booster? Simple, money.

"The shot does not prevent contracting, spreading, or dying from the virus."

Not according to the statistics.

You're four times less likely to spread infection if you're vaccinated as opposed to unvaccinated.

Only 3 people have died from the vaccine in the US.

More studies are coming out that vaccines significantly reduce risk of infection.

At my last count, more than 90% covid hospitalizations are among the unvaccinated rather than the vaccinated in the US.

Most serious viruses register at or above 1%. Now, these precautions were put in place when we had a world population of 1.7 billion. It's now 7.8 billion. Almost four times** that amount. So, while 4.4 million deaths might not seem like a lot to you but it actually is.

The fda did approve for "emergency purposes". Pharmaceutical companies are extremely profiting from it, and if you think the fda isnt taking a cut, you're naive.
From 'business insider' on pfizer - "Sales of the two-shot vaccine made up nearly a quarter of the pharmaceutical giant's first-quarter revenues of $14.6 billion"

"The fda did approve for "emergency purposes".

Fact. And now they've fully approved it. Why did they wait so long to do that?

"Pharmaceutical companies are extremely profiting from it"

Because we're not socializing medicine. Are you... suggesting we should?

"and if you think the fda isnt taking a cut, you're naive."

So, no evidence to support your claim then? Awesome.

They didnt wait long enough. The trial period isnt over.
Im not saying they shouldn't profit. It's a business. Businesses need profit. However, when you look at the profits from this vaccine and other drugs that are extremely high priced like EpiPen, it's a ridiculous amount. Plus, they're pushing an experimental vaccine to largely profit. Which is unethical.
There is evidence to that, look up how they're funded.

Time has nothing to do with trials, but rather the amount of testing involved. There is no evidence to support that these vaccines are dangerous as many have claimed, plain and simple.

The vaccine's cost isn't being forced on the American People or held ransom by any country. They are making a profit, sure, but that alone is not evidence of some kind of nefarious agenda. It isn't unethical to make money on any medicine.

You believe that the testing that's supposed to take many years to complete was done in a fraction of the time?
Its unethical to mark up the cost of something such as the EpiPen 800%, which is something necessary for SURVIVAL
There is a ton of evidence, it's just not in the government's interest to make it 'relatable', however they do inflate numbers of covid deaths to include anyone who tested positive for covid no matter the cause of death. Including suicide (cdc website)

AH, so the argument will be it rushed FDA approval. Oh, okay. Still bullshit, but okay.

No, I never intended to infer it was rushed. The FDA invented a time machine and accomplished what was supposed to take 2 more years, literally overnight.
They're slick over @ the FDA

So, why didn't they just rush it out the door in the first place?

Being ordered by the government to rush through the vetting process by two years is neither scientific nor ethical. It is a symbolic gesture as meaningless as leftist promises -- ask the Afghanistan people about that -- and means nothing except that a leftist regime WILL game any system.

From what I understand, that is exactly why these vaccines got an "emergency use" label after only months of testing back in November of last year, which was under the Trump administration, I might add. After Trump, the Biden administration nor the CDC, as far as I know unless you actually have a link that supports your claim, have done nothing to force them to do more other than say that the "emergency use" was enough.

So, who ordered the FDA to rush it through, exactly? And when did it supposedly occur?

If you just say it's been happening all along and you have nothing, then I'm sorry. That's not going to convince me.
