They point out that the death rate appears low when considering the likely number of mild, undocumented cases. The discussion emphasizes that the virus primarily poses a risk to the elderly and immunocompromised, while the general public is urged to focus on flu shots.

Gottlieb explained that a fourth dose may be necessary for immunocompromised individuals and that the virus will likely "drift" over time, requiring regular updates. The segment criticizes the media for using Gottlieb as an objective expert while he serves on the board of a vaccine manufacturer.

This development follows the rollout of third-dose boosters for 70 million Americans. Critics argue the rapid move to a fourth dose within a year of the initial rollout suggests the vaccines are underperforming.

She advised these patients to consult their physicians and continue wearing masks despite being fully vaccinated.

Citing a Johns Hopkins patient guide, the hosts note that live vaccines for measles, rubella, and chickenpox can pose a risk to those with weakened immune systems. This "asymptomatic" spread is proposed as a factor in recent outbreaks.
