Foreigner COVID-19 Vaccinations
@manwonder the problem I have with these vaccines they just approved Phizer for some children, how did the Philippines get these vaccines so fast, and as far as the booster it is just another shot of Phizer, I am afraid to take the same thing 3 or 4 times I will wait on the actual booster by Phizer

So I am told no more pre test for covid to arrive into the Philippines from the u.s. as long as you are "vaccinated" and have 1 booster? True?- @Wellsfry
@Lotus Eater No, omicron is a much weaker strain; by natural selection, viruses tend to mutate to be more contagious and less deadly. Yet, authorities keep treating omicron like it was delta. If you are they type of person who gets a flu shot every year, you should also consider a covid vax, especially older people. It should not be mandatory.
@pnwcyclist thank you...

- @OkieboyOkieboy.... Philippines appears to be "flooded" with pfizer vaccines infact some (near expiry) are planned to be donated to other poorer countries...I just hope/pray the kids got the correct ones....they still all appear to be fine >72hrs from their 1st jab.- @manwonder  the sad thing is kids dont need the covid vaccine but parents will give it to them
Wife and I just received our 2nd Pfizer boosters. This last time there was no waiting time. Considering the mild nature of the omicron variants, I think only the elderly and immunocomromised and people with comorbiities should get the shots, certainly not the kids. But to me it looks like the local population is not worried about omicron anyway as evidenced by no waiting time anymore.- @danfinn

No vaxx over 2 years now and healthy . As is my unvaxxed wife and daughter and 4 brothers 2 of which now have unemployed wife's who are long time registered nurses who refused the unnecessary vaccine ..I suspect this is a great trial run for the next compulsory/forced stamp .  The one that the wef/nwo will champion . But come what may .- @mahi948
The UK government has just announced that all over 50's will be eligible for a 2nd booster jab in the Autumn.- @Lotus Eater
