Dear friends, as I warned only a few weeks ago in this post which can still be found on my Bill’s Bible Basics Blog . . .
. . . when President Joe Biden gave the green light which mandated that all federal employees be vaccinated or else face forced regular testing and wearing face masks, he set in motion a trend which has now — in a matter of only a few weeks time — avalanched into the private sector as well, and is affecting all of our lives to one degree or another.
As we all know by now, many areas of the private sector have likewise picked up the vaccination ball, and are running with it as far as they possibly can, as can be easily seen by daily news reports, online videos and commentaries, etc.
Whether they are big corporations, smaller businesses, universities, public school systems, or other establishments and entities; they are all now requiring that those people who either work for them, or who interact with them in some other way, be vaccinated.
Tragically, those people who continue to resist being vaccinated for whatever their personal reasons, are being faced with negative — and sometimes very difficult — repercussions, including the potential loss of their employment.
Obviously, that is the very last thing that such individuals need during this troubling time. However, as I pointed out in a previous post — in which I even cited a Washington Times news article — that has been the plan all along. The government openly admitted that it wanted to make life difficult for unvaccinated people.
So now we must ask ourselves exactly how far this can go. Well, it seems that we now have a clear answer. If you have been closely following the latest COVID-19 news and developments, then you will already know that for some time now, there has been talk of the potential need for vaccine booster shots for certain individuals. That has now become a reality, as is evidenced by the following news article:

My concern is obviously the following. While government and health/medical officials are currently stating that only immunocompromised individuals need to be concerned with getting vaccine booster shots, how soon will that change?
Folks, let’s be honest about this. At least here in the United States of America, if there is one thing we know with certainty, it is that since the pandemic first began, the narrative which has been presented to us by government and health officials has changed continuously, sometimes almost overnight.
Granted, to be fair, to some degree, in the beginning this was to be expected. After all, little was known about the nature of the virus, and we were still learning about it. However, now we are a full seventeen months into this pandemic.
The point is that the pandemic situation has become so confusing, that many people no longer even trust their own governments, and have lost faith in their health officials’ pronouncements as well.
For example, Dr. Anthony Fauci — who is the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the USA, and the Chief Medical Advisor to President Biden, as he was previously with President Donald Trump — has lost all credibility with many Americans, due to his ever-changing narrative, and what are believed to be his questionable ties to the Wuhan virology lab in China, and the gain-of-function controversy.
But can we really blame them for their lack of trust? My gosh, even at this late date, we are still not being told the full truth regarding the origin of the SARS-CoV-2 virus which causes coronavirus COVID-19.
On top of that fact, as I already said, the narrative is constantly changing. For example, first it was masks on, then masks off, and then masks on again. First we were told that the vaccines would be voluntary, and now they are slowly becoming universally mandatory.
But that is not all. First we were told that the vaccines would protect us from getting COVID-19, and now it turns out that even double-vaccinated people can not only still get the coronavirus, but they can even pass it on to others, because their nasal viral load is just about as strong as in unvaccinated people.
Furthermore, there are also recent accounts which claim that some people are getting COVID-19 as a direct result of being vaccinated.
And it doesn’t end there either. First there was just one COVID-19, and now there are multiple mutations and variants, even more powerful than the original strain.
So as I have now said a few times, the narrative we are being given is constantly changing. That being the case, why should we believe that booster shots will be limited to just immunocompromised individuals?
Well, I will give you one good reason why you should not believe it. Once again, if you have been paying close attention to the latest developments, then you will probably already know that the latest pandemic spikes are said to be a result of the delta variant which is currently sweeping the world. There is also some chatter regarding the lambda variant.
But there is more. It has now begun to leak out that the vaccines — particularly the Pfizer vaccine — are losing their potency or effectiveness against these newer strains of COVID-19.
In fact, just yesterday I was reading that the efficacy of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine against the delta variant is down to just 42%, while the efficacy of the Moderna vaccine against the delta variant is 76%. If you doubt my word, please read this article:
Now folks, it doesn’t take a genius to figure this out. We already know that virus mutations are real. They adapt according to the environment they are in, and new strains, or variants, arise which are stronger and more resistant to anything we throw at them. As a result, they also become more transmissible, exactly as the delta variant has done.
So who is to say that at some point in our not-too-distant future, a new coronavirus variant won’t arise which is even more resistant, and more transmissible — or contagious — than the delta variant? My friends, this is a very real scientific possibility. This is not some wild conspiracy theory.
The truth is that no one should be surprised by this possibility. Do you know why? Because scientists have known about this potential threat — and warned about it — for literally decades now. In fact, I first broached this subject of drug-resistant superbugs myself back in 1999 in my 14-part series entitled “Fulfilled Prophecy: The Beginning of Sorrows”, which you can read at the following URL, if you desire to:

So, it is for that reason that I personally seriously doubt that the necessity of vaccine booster shots will remain limited to just immunocompromised individuals, despite the current claims being made by government and health officials. They have constantly changed their story about everything else, so why not about this as well?
I believe that it won’t be long before they will be saying that EVERYONE needs to receive booster shots, because the current vaccines were NOT designed to combat these new, more powerful variants. They were designed to combat the ORIGINAL strain.
That is why there have been so-called “breakthrough” cases. That is why vaccinated people are still able to get COVID-19. That is why vaccinated individuals can still infect other people. That is why some people — no matter how small the number — are still becoming very sick, and even dying, after being vaccinated.
So again, I do believe that in the near future, booster shots are going to be required — and quite possibly mandated — for EVERYONE. Not just once either, but multiple times at periodic intervals.
As this pandemic continues to ravage the world, we may potentially see more powerful variants arise on the scene; variants which will resist and weaken the current vaccines even further. This will of course require that new and more powerful vaccines be manufactured.
In conclusion, I honestly don’t know how this will end, or when this will end. It seems to me that we may possibly be locked into a never-ending cycle. At this current time, my personal impression is that we are not winning the current battle against SARS-CoV-2, what with our vaccines weakening, and new variants arising.
However this all eventually ends, I hope that your heart is right with God our Father, and that you have received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.
