The CDC director went against the recommendation of an advisory board in saying that workers who are at high risk of contracting COVID-19 should receive a booster shot.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky signed off on a conglomerate of recommendations from the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices panel, made up of 15 members including pediatricians, infectious-disease doctors and other experts, saying that boosters should be offered to people over the age of 65 as well as those 50 to 64 years old with underlying medical conditions, the Wall Street Journal reports.
However, Walensky sided against the panel’s recommendation in saying that people ages 18 to 64 who work in healthcare or have another job that puts them at higher risk should receive booster shots.
“As CDC Director, it is my job to recognize where our actions can have the greatest impact,” Walensky said in a statement Thursday. “At CDC, we are tasked with analyzing complex, often imperfect data to make concrete recommendations that optimize health. In a pandemic, even with uncertainty, we must take actions that we anticipate will do the greatest good.”
Indeed, the panel was hesitant to support a broad recommendation for people, such as healthcare workers, because of their jobs, fearing it would allow pretty much anyone who wanted a booster to get one.
“It seems uncharacteristically openly ended for the lack of data of need in any of these groups,” Sarah Long, a professor of pediatrics at Drexel University College of Medicine, said.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
