JERUSALEM (VINnews) — A new Israeli study which researched the vulnerable elderly population in Israel who had received a fourth COVID-19 shot in the winter maintains that the shot caused a 72% reduction in death rates among the population in comparison with those who only received three shots.

The peer-reviewed research analyzed data on elderly people in senior citizen facilities who received four shots as opposed to those who received only three. The fourth shot was rushed out during last winter’s coronavirus outbreak, which was dominated by the Omicron variant.
Despite the fact that the Omicron variant proved more immune to vaccines due to the large number of mutations, the vaccine succeeded in slashing hospitalizations by over 60% and reducing infection levels by over 34%, according to the study which was conducted by Tel Aviv University, Beersheva’s Ben Gurion University and the Ministry of Health. The study was published in the prestigious JAMA journal of internal medicine.
“The most important message here is that the fourth dose was protective for the most frail elderly people who are in residential facilities,” epidemiologist Prof. Khitam Muhsen of Tel Aviv University, one of the study’s authors, told The Times of Israel news site. “Fourth shots reduce hospitalization and death — they’re lifesavers.
“The results are very good and very reassuring, especially as, before the fourth dose, we didn’t know whether it would help, especially against Omicron which is so much harder for vaccines to fight, as it has so many more mutations than previous variants.”
Muhsen said that the results vindicate Israel’s decision in December to administer fourth doses, also known as second boosters, before most others around the world did.
“They confirm that the policy adopted by the State of Israel was the correct one,” she said. “The decision to vaccinate at-risk populations with the fourth dose was a wise choice that saved a lot of human lives.”
The study compared 24,088 residents of Senior Shield facilities who received a fourth dose of the Pfizer vaccine, with 19,687 residents who were vaccinated with the first three doses four months or more prior to the follow-up, but who chose not to take the fourth shot.
Muhsen commented: “What we learn is that while immunity wanes over time, the fourth dose does enhance neutralizing antibodies over and above the impact of the third dose. I strongly recommend that elderly people take the fourth dose.”
Please explain how someone still believes this falsehood. People are dying and terminally injured from this shot . Not protected from anything.
HA HA HA
Undoubtedly a blatant abuse of industry-partial data. Stay away from this insidious ‘death shot’ as far as possible. Myriad reports from elsewhere are showing historic adverse effects around the globe, including off the charts lower childbirths since the c19 shot came out, and ‘excess mortalities’ everywhere. Big Pharma is using underpaid journalists to cover for them.
Who believes this drivel anymore? All this so called scientific data is just bought science paid for by Pfizer.
Every single person I know who was vaccinated and boosted got covid
Some of them badly and many of them twice
But of course
It would have been worse without the shot, obviously
Here you have government and industry joining together to save their behinds. Government who approved fourth shot with no safety data and Pfizer that created this poison shot. Of course they’ll keep printing out studies showing how amazing it is and no, we didn’t kill tons of people and damage their health and fertility with this shot we forced on you.
