Consequently, they are often times worthless. There are years that the flu shot (i.e. influenza) doesn't come close to covering the dominant strain that year. I said this long ago, and got a lot of shit for it, but the covid vaccine is not in the same category as the polio vaccine. It's a flu shot, and it will work better sometimes than others. But this idea of shutting the country down and enforcing mandatory mandates on people, which the rich like Gavin Newsome will flat out ignore, is absurd and inane.
People gave the government the benefit of the doubt on this and were flat out lied to. That time is over.
