Dr. Vinay Prasad concludes “The FDA, CDC, Pfizer and the Biden administration are practicing reckless medicine,” Here is his advice:

<

blockquote>The Biden Administration is not science based. They are as ignorant as the anti-science fringe they decry. I would watch for conflicts of interest as Califf, Jha, Murthy and others move into private sector.

I will never get another COVID19 shot until someone shows it lowers the risk of severe disease for someone of (a) my age and (b) who already had 3 doses (2 against my will) and (c) COVID. Practically, given the anti-science admin, this will be never.

I would not advise anyone healthy <65 to get the vaccine.

I would not advise anyone healthy who had COVID already to get the vaccine.

For those >65 with medical problems, and no prior covid, there are no data. I suspect nearly none of these people will want the booster, and I won’t push back. I have no data to fight with.

I would discourage all COVID19 vaccination of anyone healthy <30 (this is most insane); Especially <18. At this point, all have had covid and no data show further doses help them.

Colleges & hospitals should NEVER mandate this booster.

I will continue to oppose the universal booster program without data, and this anti-science administration.
