We need updated flu and COVID vaccines this fall as the virus changes. FDA and CDC are already working on updating the COVID vaccine. Plan ahead for your fall flu shot and COVID vaccine to stay ahead of the virus.

I think we all know how important the COVID vaccine was. It was scientifically, critically studied to prevent severe disease. I think where people started to get confused is when we started to make potential claims that the vaccine did more than what it was studied to actually show. And remember all of those original studies, we didn't test patients unless they had symptoms. We only looked for disease, and so we don't know how many people were asymptomatic. We don't know about protection against infection. What we did know about is protection against severe disease. And clearly, if you look at the mortality in individuals 75 before vaccination and after vaccination, there was a dramatic difference even through, Amicrom and Delta. So, yes, the vaccine was highly effective for what it was intended to do, was prevent Shouldn't the health secretary know that? You know, I'm not sure that there's so much confusion about the COVID vaccine, what it was studied to do. I just want to make it very clear. It was studied to prevent severe disease, and that's what it does. And then I think the question is, well, who's who's susceptible to severe disease and who should continue to get the COVID shots? I think that's what needs to be clearly laid out to the American people.

The CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older to get the updated COVID-19 vaccine before the fall and winter season. Extensive data and clinical trials support this recommendation. As the head of the CDC and a doctor, I would not recommend anything I wouldn't do for my own family. That's why my husband, parents, and my 9 and 11-year-old daughters will be getting the vaccine. I encourage you to do the same for everyone in your family who is 6 months and older. Don't forget to also get your flu shot. Visit vaccines.gov to find a nearby location and consult your doctor if you have any questions.

Vaccinations are highly effective against COVID-19 and prevent hospitalization and death. They also reduce transmission, allowing society to return to normal. Fully vaccinated individuals no longer need to wear masks or practice physical distancing. However, vaccines only slightly reduce transmission, and there is a risk of waning immunity over time. Israel has observed this waning immunity, leading to the recommendation for booster shots. It is advised for every adult to receive a booster shot. Overall, vaccines are a worthwhile investment.

The summer is not over yet, and Corona is making a comeback. Some are warning, while others are already calling for masks and old measures. Have we really learned so little from the past years? The virus has lost its terror, as almost everyone has had contact with SARS-CoV-2. The pandemic is officially over, and most people have developed immunity. However, Corona was never gone and will never disappear. Critical experts advise us to remain calm, as Corona is now just a normal illness. It's always there, less in summer and more in winter, like other respiratory diseases. There's no need to panic. Those who are already warning and demanding old measures either haven't understood or don't want to understand. Perhaps it's because a comprehensive evaluation never took place. We need to know what was good, bad, unnecessary, and harmful before repeating old mistakes and spreading fear again.

A recent CDC study involving 10,000 participants shows that those who received a third booster shot had significantly more antibodies and better protection compared to those who did not. As we approach the winter holidays, this extra protection can help reduce infection and spread. The CDC now strongly recommends that individuals over 50 get a booster shot. However, those over 18, particularly those with conditions like asthma, diabetes, or obesity, are also encouraged to receive a booster for added protection.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of getting the updated COVID-19 vaccine, especially for older adults. They mention that the CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older to get one dose of the vaccine before the fall and winter season. The recommendation is based on extensive data and clinical trials. The speaker, as a doctor and head of the CDC, assures that they would not recommend anything they wouldn't recommend for their own family. They mention that their own family, including their 9 and 11-year-old daughters, husband, parents, and themselves, will be getting the vaccine. They encourage everyone to get vaccinated and remind people to also get their flu shot. For more information, they suggest visiting vaccines.gov and consulting with a doctor if there are any questions.

Getting vaccinated not only protects your health and your family's, but it also helps the community by stopping the spread of the virus. When you get vaccinated, you become a dead end for the virus, preventing it from going anywhere. This leads to a significant decrease in infection rates within the community. That's why we strongly encourage and want people to get vaccinated.

NAZI has authorized the use of updated COVID-19 vaccines for age groups, recommending a dose every 6 months after the last dose or infection. Canada has seen the Omicron variant evolve, including subvariants like XBB and BA.2.86. The updated vaccines are expected to provide better protection against circulating strains. If it has been more than 6 months since the last dose or infection, individual protection may have decreased, making it important to get a vaccine dose this fall. This is especially crucial for those at higher risk, such as older adults, individuals with underlying conditions, pregnant people, and those in congregate living settings. Vaccination and personal protective measures are essential in reducing the impact of respiratory illnesses, especially during colder months when indoor activities increase the risk.

I just got vaccinated with the modified vaccine by Dr. Müller at the military hospital. Why did I do it? We need to understand that a Covid infection is not a common cold. It's a serious matter. For people over sixty or those with risk factors, the disease can lead to severe outcomes. There can also be long-term damage, like Long Covid.

Vaccinated individuals are still at risk of getting COVID, but may have milder symptoms. Vaccines were introduced late in the pandemic, and early treatment and natural immunity were key in saving lives. There is controversy over vaccine safety, with reports of deaths following vaccination. Some studies suggest vaccinated individuals are at higher risk of severe outcomes. Calls have been made to remove vaccines from the market due to safety concerns. Translation: Vaccinated people can still get COVID, but may have less severe symptoms. Early treatment and natural immunity were important in saving lives. There are concerns about vaccine safety, with reports of deaths after vaccination. Some studies indicate vaccinated people may be at higher risk of severe outcomes. There are calls to remove vaccines from the market due to safety concerns.

COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and allow for reopening. Data shows their safety and effectiveness across populations, including the elderly, those with underlying conditions, and pregnant and nursing women. Hospitalizations and deaths decreased after vaccine release, but cases are spiking again. In June, 100% of COVID-19 deaths in Maryland were among the unvaccinated. The Delta variant is highly transmissible, but vaccines are effective against it, preventing hospitalizations and deaths. There is no evidence of negative impacts on fertility or increased risk to women of childbearing years. COVID-19 does not discriminate, and severe cases are unpredictable. Cases are spiking in every state. Vaccines are a gift and are easily accessible. Get vaccinated to protect yourself and others, travel and celebrate responsibly, and ensure a healthy and safe community.

Being vaccinated keeps you safe and reduces transmission. Unvaccinated people pose the highest risk of spreading the virus and facing severe illness. Vaccination offers over a 98% chance of avoiding COVID. The third dose provides protection against severe illness and infection. AstraZeneca's vaccine has been approved but faced bans in some countries. Data shows more COVID deaths in vaccinated individuals in the US. The global vaccination trial proves that vaccines are safe and effective.

We need a high booster rate to prevent severe illness. Other countries have seen faster uptake of boosters when Omicron spreads rapidly. Don't wait, get your booster today to fully benefit from the vaccine. The side effects of boosters appear to be milder than the second dose, according to our director general of health.

I don't have a specific target number, but last year's death toll from Covid was too high. We have a collective responsibility towards vulnerable individuals. I want to convince those listening to get vaccinated. Our vaccine is more effective than last year's, it targets the current strains, and we have three years of data showing no side effects. It's important to go for it. There is a global push for prevention and vaccination, including for HPV, bronchiolitis, flu, and Covid. I believe in the progress and effectiveness of prevention and vaccination.

According to the CDC, vaccinated individuals don't carry or get sick from the virus, both in clinical trials and real-world data. However, reports from international colleagues, like Israel, indicate a higher risk of severe disease among those vaccinated early. This evidence raises concerns that the strong protection against severe infection, hospitalization, and death could decrease in the future, particularly for those at higher risk or vaccinated earlier during the rollout phases.

There's a lot of rumors that are going around that young and healthy people don't need to get the vaccine. You should save it for people who are a little bit older. "There’s a syndrome that we refer to as long COVID, which means you get a syndrome following the clearing of the virus where it could be for months and months that you have symptoms that are profound fatigue, muscle aches, temperature dysregulation, and even an inability to focus or concentrate." "So for the person themselves to protect themselves. But then there's also the responsibility that you have of not being part of spreading the infection throughout the community. So you almost wanna take what I call a societal responsibility. Protecting children also protects society." "And, by the way, we have enough supply of vaccine. We don't have to worry about it. Everybody can get vaccinated."

The message we have been conveying from the beginning is that when you are vaccinated, you do not risk infecting others. Studies have shown that people who have received both doses of the vaccine have virtually no chance of contracting the disease. If everyone is vaccinated, there will no longer be any virus.

Vaccinated individuals are protected against COVID-19 and its variants, as the vaccines are highly effective. They do not carry the virus, get sick, or transmit it to others. Vaccination allows society to return to normal by reducing transmission. Getting both vaccine shots is crucial. Vaccinated people are safe from hospitalization, ICU stays, and death, and they no longer need to wear masks. However, they cannot prevent transmission. Israel's experience suggests a waning of immunity, indicating the need for booster shots. The plan is for every adult to receive a booster shot. Overall, vaccines have been a highly successful investment.

People who choose not to get vaccinated will be at a disadvantage compared to those who do get vaccinated. Vaccinated individuals are protected against the virus, while unvaccinated individuals are not. They can still contract the disease even when the virus is not circulating much. This is the case for all infectious diseases with available vaccines that people refuse. Our role is to make it simple and free to get vaccinated, and to continuously encourage and explain why it is important. We need to address doubts and answer questions. It is not clear if unvaccinated individuals, like Laura, can go to the cinema. However, we will not prevent the reopening of restaurants just because a small percentage of the population refuses to get vaccinated. Vaccination is a personal choice, but it is also a protection for oneself and others. If concerned, consult with a doctor who can provide reassurance and encourage vaccination.

COVID-19 vaccines are now accessible to millions of Americans and will soon be available to everyone. The vaccines are scientifically proven to protect against this dangerous and deadly disease, potentially saving lives. We strongly encourage you to get vaccinated as soon as it's possible for you. This is the initial step towards ending the pandemic and progressing our nation. The responsibility lies with each individual.

In our darkest moments, I was really worried about the baby boomers. I noted that people over 70 in March, April, and May were dying at a 30% rate. Recognizing that baby boomers might resist rules, I anticipated they wouldn’t necessarily listen to me. So I created YouTube videos for Gen Zs and millennials and pleaded with them to relay mitigation information to their grandparents, and they did. Guidelines exist, but guidelines mean nothing if they’re not implemented; that group became our voices, talking with their grandparents, and they also helped get many of those individuals vaccinated. Grandchildren, you have remarkable power to sway behavior, and you used it for good. I will always be grateful because it saved literally millions of Americans from very serious illness from COVID. For those 65 and in the audience, COVID is not gone. Repetitive COVID infections in people 70 are leading to consequences: you can survive the initial episode, but we end up seeing diabetes, heart attacks, and mononucleosis-type symptoms that don’t go away, along with long COVID. So please still be careful this fall. If a new vaccine is released, get that, but understand Swiss cheese layering of mitigation to get through that six to eight weeks and stay healthy.
