And soon in the US if you don't have a booster you'll be considered dirty and unvaxxed. They will just keep moving the pole as long as they are allowed.
You mean until the pandemic is done?
How long will this take, exactly?

Who said at a whim? We need everyone to be vaccinated. I don't see anything different between requiring vaccination and requiring boosters
> We need everyone to be vaccinated. I don't need this. How is that your needs have a higher priority than mine?
Because the political coalition in power, supported by the voters in the county, says so.
It's really that simple.

#24Well, the infrastructure is now in place. At a whim, the government can strip back freedoms of people and claim it is for the greater good. It wont matter if you have had 2 injections of Pfizer in the past, the government soon will deem you completely unvaccinated and take away your freedoms without looking at your demographics or your previous vaccination status. Insanity.
Yep. Just like "at a whim" the government says you need a tetanus shot every ten years. Chilling.

At least in the U.S. the actions being taken by our federal Executive are plainly illegal. So it hardly matters what the voters want if they can't get our Congress to pass an appropriate law enabling this. If your State Governor wants to mandate something then go for it.

A logical analogy.

Why do you think you don't?

#28You can't comply your way out of tyranny. Perhaps this change in rules will help more people to see this.
You can't "muh freedom" your way out of a pandemic.
Can't "muh vax" it either apparently. Enjoy your boosters forever :) If we're lucky this little war will be as costly and effective as Afghanistan. We've got to give up just a little freedom, spend a little more money, but its only short term right?

Does natural immunity wane off at the same rate?
It doesn't look like it. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.24.21262415v... > SARS-CoV-2-naïve vaccinees had a 13.06-fold (95% CI, 8.08 to 21.11) increased risk for breakthrough infection with the Delta variant compared to those previously infected, when the first event (infection or vaccination) occurred during January and February of 2021. The increased risk was significant (P<0.001) for symptomatic di…
So it's better to get natural immunity while under the effect of vaccine. I'm sure Pfizer would prefer perpetual mandatory boosters because thats a fat revenue stream.
