After the lies and misinformation we now know we were fed during the COVID era, you would have to be insane to blindly trust this group again, especially the hacker news astroturf squad that's downvoting my comments.

I agree with you. It seems like the pharmaceutical corporations are trying to convert vaccines into a recurring revenue model with booster shots. I wouldn't be surprised in the future if they introduce a subscription model for vaccines.

I guarantee that's in a powerpoint presentation somewhere at Pfizer.
