On Thursday, the EU said they would table a proposal to make one’s vaccination status expire after just nine months, likely requiring Europeans to be inoculated with subsequent booster shots if they don’t want to be considered an unvaccinated second-class citizen.
As CNBC reports, “Thursday’s recommendation does not yet address booster shots. The commission said that “it can reasonably be expected that protection from booster vaccinations may last longer than that resulting from the primary vaccination series.””
The EU now plans to have a decision regarding their proposed waning-vaccination-status policy within two or three weeks. However, boosters will likely be approved as part of the new plan, as, just yesterday, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control recommended that all adults should get their booster shots, creating a radical shift in precedent.
“The European Commission is working with the utmost urgency to strengthen the co-ordination of free movement, including the length of validity and the role of boosters in the vaccination campaign,” European health commissioner Stella Kyriakides said on Monday.
So much for two and done. It turns out this ‘vaccine’ is a forever shot.
Moreover, EU Justice Commissioner Didier Reynders says that the EU’s internal travel framework will now be based on vaccination status or recovery status rather than if the host nation of the traveller has a high case count.
Thus, whether a prospective traveller has COVID or even has a likeliness of having COVID is irrelevant. The EU only cares that you’ve had booster shots of the experimental, dangerous COVID vaccine, which is so ineffective it can’t be reliably trusted after nine months.
“It is evident that the pandemic is not yet over,” Reynders said. “… the travel rules need to take into account this volatile situation.”
