Apparently  the  COVID 19 Vaccinations are only good for 6 months. ?

Once you take it, you will need to take another vaccination every 6 months.

    That may well be the case, especially with all the variants cropping up. In truth, no one really knows how long the protection lasts, bcuz full testing was not done. The rationale was "something" against Covid was better than nothing (and they're probably right.) But it was never going to be a "one shot covers you for life" thing, even though the powers that be wouldn't say so. At best, it will be like a yearly flu shot, which are tweaked every season to combat whatever strain is making the rounds. At worst, we'll discover the current vaccines aren't effective against the varients and this whole vaccine endeavor has only been a finger in the dyke (God forbid.)

    That's the latest guess from the experts.  Not the first, and it won't be the last.  Those are my thoughts, and my thoughts are right.

    Why are all the experts guessing, you ask?  Because they don't know, that's why.  Medicine is a science, and scientists can only go with the information they have in front of them.  When asked about what the future will look like, they have to take an educated guess.  An educated guess is still a guess.

    Lies are spread typically with no credible source.

    That's a lie among many lies. Learn how to read. 

    Pfizer says COVID-19 vaccine protection lasts at least six months, protects against variants.

    That was the least and the most is still to be determined.
