Uh-oh. Israelis may have finally had enough spike protein to suit their tastes, which already went much further than I would have ever taken it. Well, technically I have NO appetite for spike protein. Zero. But you get what I’m saying.

Anyway, reports suggest that the market for booster shots in super-highly-injected Israel is sluggish at best. Only about half of them seem to be heading back for more of the spikes. That is especially remarkable because Israel has an injection-passport system that makes you a second-class citizen if you aren’t “fully” injected, which now includes the boosters. So half of Israelis are voluntarily giving up all kinds of rights of travel and access to avoid more spikes.

Meanwhile, in the U.S., where there are no injection passports except in the most deranged and hollowed-out parts of the country, the market for boosters is completely underwater. Only 5% of Americans have taken the third jab — even though it’s free. I wonder why.
