BUCK: Here’s what they’re saying in Israel right now about this. They have some updated data on all of it. They actually have the fourth shot has been given to — the fourth, keep in mind, not the third, the fourth — over 50,000 seniors in Israel. This is CNN reporting on it. Play clip 2.
ELIZABETH COHEN: In Israel several weeks ago, they started giving fourth doses to people who were immune compromised, to people who were 60 years of age and older, and also to health care workers. They said the fourth dose did raise antibodies and maybe there was a slightly lower level of infection among those who got the fourth dose. They weren’t really sure. They also didn’t give any data as to whether or not getting that fourth dose did what we really want it to do, which is to prevent severe disease, keep you out of the hospital. Now, if this all sounds mushy, it’s because it was mushy. The Israeli researchers did not give any actual data. They just gave descriptions.
BUCK: You can tell, Clay, that there’s a bias among scientists now around the world for never wanting to admit that what they’re doing with covid isn’t working. The fact that they can’t even prove any clinical significance from giving a fourth shot to seniors in this case, it clearly does not stop infection well. Does it stop infection at all?
CLAY: I think it’s the question that I would ask everybody out there. Take it outside of covid because there’s so much, so many focused right now on covid and everybody’s lined up to fight, you know, for the vaccine or against — let’s just pretend it’s something else. If you got four shots for — to keep you from getting polio, that they said, “Hey, we’ve got this polio vaccine for you, it’s gonna work phenomenally well, you’ll get four shots in the year, “and then you still got polio?
Everybody out there… Don’t even consider it covid. Everybody out there would be, man, that was a real waste of those four shots. Don’t miss what is trying to here, Buck, which is they have shifted the entire reason for the “covid vaccine,” in quotation marks, from, “Hey, you won’t get it, and you won’t transmit it; it basically ends with you,” to now their argument is, “If you get the covid vaccine,” potentially three or four shots’ worth within a year, “then you won’t get really sick or need to go to the hospital.”
When, by the way, the data doesn’t even reflect that that is necessarily true because the people that are going to the hospital — at least where they have good data in England — are like 80% vaccinated now. So this whole argument I don’t think really holds water. I think it’s a function of our failure to have good data in the United States and/or to share it very well. If you want to get the shot, get it. But this idea that they initially sold us which is this would end covid is 100% not true.
BUCK: And they won’t admit it.
BUCK: There’s now obvious stuff going on here, and they won’t say it, which is, I think, a huge tell about where all this is going. Look, I believe that Fauci and the rest of them going into the midterms, the Democrats are gonna say, “We’re going into a relaxed summer.” They’re gonna claim victory over the virus this summer — get ready for it — just because they know they have to. And then as soon as the midterms are over, if they can, they’ll start to say, “Mask up again at events! Get ready for your shots.” This is now the new normal is “turn on, turn off the Fauciism.” It’s not it goes away forever. That’s what they’re trying to angle for, and that’s what we’re gonna fight against with everything we can.
