The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) has declared that the time between receiving the second dose of the vaccine and the booster jab should be cut from six months to only three months, allowing those aged between 18 to 39 years-old to receive one much earlier than expected. The JCVI came to this decision as research has suggested that higher antibody levels are better prepared against the Omicron variant. In addition, the JCVI has approved the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine for children aged 12 to 15 years-old. The Times has more.
The move, which will prove a huge logistical challenge for the NHS, comes after early evidence suggested that higher antibody levels may offer better protection against the variant.
The JCVI is now advising that all adults aged 18 to 39 years-old should be offered a booster dose, in order of descending age groups. Those aged 40 years-old and over are already eligible.
In further advice, young people aged 12 to 15 years-old should be offered a second dose of the Pfizer vaccine, no sooner than 12 weeks after their first dose.
The JCVI also said that severely immunosuppressed people should be offered a booster dose no sooner than three months after completing their primary course of three doses.
Professor Wei Shen Lim, Chairman of the JCVI said: “Having a booster dose of the vaccine will help to increase our level of protection against the Omicron variant.
“This is an important way for us to reduce the impact of this variant on our lives, especially in the coming months.
“If you are eligible for a booster, please take up the offer and keep yourself protected as we head into winter.”
The JCVI said that both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines can be given as a booster for adults, with equal preference given to both.
Laws requiring facemasks in shops and public transport, along with new quarantine rules for all travellers into Britain, will come into effect at 4am tomorrow. Ministers said that this was a “proportionate” response to the emergence of a variant that scientists believe may be the most dangerous yet.
Conservative backbenchers are pressing for an early vote on the rules after Sajid Javid, the Health Secretary, suggested that Parliament may not get a chance to approve the changes until after they are reviewed in three weeks. Ministers have said that the introduction of measures such as working from home and vaccine passports, which are strongly opposed by many Tory MPs, do not require a vote.

Profanity and abuse will be removed and may lead to a permanent ban.
More child abuse from the Johnson cabal. The only consolation is we all know how nonces are dealt with when they end up doing stir.
Why on earth are these boosters being shoved down people’s throats when they simply do not work. Cardiac (serious) adverse events abound post vaxx. If a person wants to take the risk, by all means take the booster. Many of us have declined and never been healthier or happier.
Didn’t the JCVI recently change membership and now they’re in favour of everything they were against.
Btw, why do they think it’s OK to shorten the time between vaxx jags. It’s not a booster it’s a third vaxx.
There are also many medications that can increase bloot clot risk such as the pill for women. Does anyone else remember that they initially advised that iif you are taking ANY medication whatsoever then you shouldn’t be taki g the jags
“But our scientists are learning more hour by hour, and it does appear that Omicron spreads very rapidly, and can be spread between people who are double vaccinated.”
Boris. Gov website.
Oops!
“Professor Wei Shen Lim, Chairman of the JCVI said: “Having a booster dose of the vaccine will help to increase our level of protection against the Omicron variant.”
Will it though?
The most disturbing thing from these wildly disturbed madmen is “vaccine passport don’t need a vote”. They intend to bring in a mandatory ID system with no democratic oversight. Insanity prevails.
I see former international banker Sajid Javid is now referring to the fourth shot as the booster, to be had on top of three primary doses. Let’s see if the fifth shot becomes the booster, on top of the four primary shots. I bet they’re drawing straws for who gets to be the one to tell the plebs it’s jabs every few weeks forever or face higher risk than unvax.

RFK, Jr. Tells The New American: Fauci Has ‘Dark History’ That Must Be Exposed
Anthony Fauci is the architect of agency capture within the public health agencies.
He has orchestrated the transformation of HHS [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] from a public health agency to an incubator for pharmaceutical products and a promoter of the Big Pharma agenda.
He’s the J. Edgar Hoover of public health. He’s managed to stay for 50 years in office, I show in my book, not by actually accomplishing any measurable successes in public health — public health has declined dramatically under his regime — but rather by serving the interests of pharmaceutical companies — by helping make this country the most pharmaceutical dependent nation in the world.
We take three times more pharmaceutical drugs than the average in other western nations.
We pay the highest prices for those drugs, and we have by far the worst health outcomes in the entire developed world. We’re 79th in the world in terms of our total health outcomes.
This generation of children that has come of age during Tony Fauci’s regime — since 1984 — is the sickest generation in history.
When he came into NIH [National Institutes… Read more »
I am in the process of reading this book and it is VERY scary.
How Fauci is still in this position of power I don’t know.
Seeing his discussion with senator paul rand I can only conclude that he has hsd serious botox to prevent sweating.
His evilness surpasses that of hitler and stslin combined.
I’m learning more and more first hand evidence of problems relating to the heart with this jab.
Direct quote: ‘chest pains significantly worse after 2nd Jab’
Anecdotal evidence from practising physiotherapists suggesting numerous complaints of painful left shoulders after jabs (mild heart attack???)
Footballers and professional sports people dropping like flies.
What is REALLY going on?????
I think the vaxxines are working rather too well, and too quickly. The initial bioweapon should have caused more deaths in the first epidemic wave, to cover the extra deaths later on from the vaxxine.
Now we are left with a rather unimpressive “pandemic” no-one is really afraid of, and vaxxines that are scything through professional footballers on the field.
No chance of pretending these deaths are covid. The genociders have no cover left.
I hope that whistleblowers will come out. People need to spill the beans quick to escape the inevitable retribution that is coming.
Agree 👏
As well as the Dr Sucharit Bhakdi video posted by someone earlier in this thread, this is a good 5 minute video if you haven’t seen it:

I think they are maiming people en masse and making them more vulnerable to having a terminal illness or fatal event over time and with each successive vaccination.
Correct.
What they aren’t doing is killing vast numbers, yet… The fact is you can easily hurt people without killing them. People are pretty tough. I think at this rate however more people will start dying.
Depopulation.
Is anybody organising against this? Where do I go to find anyone that I can join with to mount an opposition?
Reuters reporting Japan is at 1% of its COVID peak cases and falling. India is at 3% of its peak and falling. What did these countries do? Ditch vaccine mandates for ivermectin. Since April 28, India medical officials started providing hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin to its massive population. As India is the major pharmaceutical manufacturer in the world, they were ready for this massive drug distribution. MIRACULOUSLY!, COVID cases have plummeted quickly since then. Meanwhile, all “first world” countries in Europe are reporting a rise in cases. Get your ivermectin before it is too late! https://ivmpharmacy.com
Fuck the jab
The JCVI: The best vaccines advice money can buy.
Is there any public institution left that isn’t completely corrupted by Big Pharma money?
My impression, reading between the lines, is that the reduction in the time frame for boosters isn’t possible to achieve. The booster roll-out is already slow (difficulty of getting an appointment, no local GPs doing it, jab fatigue etc) so speeding it up is like flogging a dead horse. So I’m guessing that the 3 month booster for the under 40s is just a way of getting more jabs into more agile, mobile arms. Whether that is simply to sell more doses or it is to get the young more jabbed up, I don’t know.
Dan Wootton in the Daily Fail nails it:
DAN WOOTTON: If we don’t stand up to our hysterical Omicron overlords now then I fear our future as a free people is lost forever
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-10254761/DAN-WOOTTON-stand-Omicron-overlords-fear-future-free-people.html
Some great best rated readers comments!
Wasn’t Dan Wootton pro lockdown before?
In medicine more often doesn’t equal better. It isn’t clear why they think more vaccine will be beneficial over these timescales.
I also note that the clinical trials for the boosters used an interval of 9-11 months (IIRC). There’s no scientific evidence supporting a more frequent booster and no understanding of what the consequences will be.
The Kool-Aid is more effective if you drink more!
If the truth ever comes out to the whole world one day: will it be a liberation or mass suicide from despair? Roiling revolution, or demonic acceptance of a post-human servitude?
Hopefully liberation coupled by punishment with extreme prejudice.
How can the JCVI approve a booster shot for 12-15 year olds, when they did not approve the primary injection?
As I remember it Whitty just overruled the JCVI’s medical recommendation, using the non-medical justification of loss of schooling. So how can this “ruling” from the JCVI be valid medically?
It can’t be, they are only following orders. Actually I have heard that excuse before. History repeats itself.

Dear
Re: Face coverings. NAME AND FORM
I am writing to let you know that my child NAME is not able to wear a face covering. Therefore as stated in the most recent government guidance on face coverings (20th July 2021) is not required to wear one. There are a wide variety of reasons people are exempt from wearing face coverings and it is unlawful to request proof of exemptions. This means that NAME will not be required, or able, to wear a face covering at school, at any time.
I would appreciate it if you and other staff could ensure they are not made to feel uncomfortable or singled out because they are unable to wear a face covering.
Kind regards
“The JCVI said that both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines can be given as a booster for adults, with equal preference given to both.”
So (almost) all 3rd injections in Britain are mRNA?
Am I alone in thinking that the pretty shitty cold that my wife and I suffered a few weeks back (as did many of our friends as well) might have been the omicron variant? If so, the bird has flown and any new measures are just tokenism to appease the baying (we want Christmas lockdown) mainstream media.
Since any symptom is anything they say now, unless they reclassify it later, you may have had anything or nothing… or Covid.
I think they are just playing on suggestibility. If you are unvaxxed you have probably got a natural immunity to Sars-Cov 19 after two years of it supposedly circulating like mad in the population. Remember coronaviruses are not influenza, which changes its outer coat each year, thus evading the immune system.
Sars coronaviruses are large stable viruses, and you will have cross immunity from your prior exposure. Nothing to worry about.
I have got a nasty chest infection right now, but I don’t for a moment think I have got covid. It is a normal winter virus. I haven’t a clue what to do with a test kit, I have never even seen one, have no idea how to use one, and I intend to keep it that way.
I’m a bit behind sorry: now the govt says children who are at practically zero risk from covid need to now have two initial jabs then be injected with a booster jab all within the space of 6 months in order to save the NazHiS? And they need boosters for a new variant of a virus the jabs don’t even stop transmission of, and in respect of which the virus is a negligible risk anyway.
I’m confused. I’m not thick (v good degree from an old uni; retrained as a lawyer, good grades at law school; 15 years negotiating complex transactions going into 100s of millions of pounds at a time in a variety of sectors).
I must be missing something. Please enlighten me.
It’s just a conspiracy…
It’s called GENOSIDE.
I will enlighten you
Like most of us on here you have a brain which you are using.
Unlike the tossers at Sage who are totally anencaphalic.
I’m with Laurence Fox on this – did my resesearch and decided not to have the jab – judging by the side-effects of the jab I think I made the right decision – I would rather go through having the perfectly normal symptoms caused by the virus for a few days than the abnormal and worrying side-effects caused by the jab ..
He isn’t important enough to be given saline solution!
“No complaints”. Why not?
“but what is the science of that?” Err, this has never been about science, and exactly how difficult would it have been to discover that there have been no studies on the effects of jab mix-n-match?

And we’re the nutters?
No offence to a venerable DS member, but… Brachiopod. Reverse evolution?

Omicron anagram
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncomir
An oncomir (also oncomiR) is a microRNA (miRNA) that is associated with cancer. MicroRNAs are short RNA molecules about 22 nucleotides in length. Essentially, miRNAs specifically target certain messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to prevent them from coding for a specific protein. The dysregulation of certain microRNAs (oncomirs) has been associated with specific cancer forming (oncogenic) events. Many different oncomirs have been identified in numerous types of human cancers
A bit long but very informative. Philip McMillan in discussion with 4 holders of advanced (PhD) degrees.
All 4 more or less agree (1) Covid Vaccines are poor. (2) Vaccines are driving variants
(3) Auto-immune diseases are likely (4) Vaccination in the teeth of a pandemic was a big mistake,
The likes of JCVI and co., are little more than modern day drug pushers. First one’s free and then you get to pay… for ever!
We have a “vaccine” resistant variant.
Quick everyone get a booster with the same Wuhan original slop as last time!
Sounds like a great way to induce original antigenic sin to me.
It is remarkable isn’t it.
Anyone listen to the latest Aubrey Marcus podcast? It’s bloomin great!
Didn’t the JCVI only a few months ago suggest that there was negligible benefit for youngsters to take the vaccine and therefore advised against it. Now a second is fine. This country is corrupt as fuck!
Its amazing how that advice can be reversed when you replace those who dare to question the government.
Government scientist who questioned ‘risk-benefit ratio’ of vaccinating 12 to 15-year-olds leaves role on Covid advisory board
The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) is ‘refreshing‘ the membership of its Covid subcommittee as Professor Robert Dingwall, a critic of giving the shots to children, leaves the body.
