I’ve seen enough. I’m going in for the Pfizer vaccine tomorrow.

At this point it’s safe to say that these mRNA vaccines are pretty incredible. The technology and mechanisms are sound, and they can be adjusted on the fly to account for mutations.

I’m pissed off that I have to get an experimental shot due to an obvious Chinese bio attack, but it’s kind of where we are.

You can either take your chances with Chinese bioengineering or take your chances with western pharmaceutical engineering…but you’re going to have to make the choice. We’re all going to be/have been exposed.

Godspeed my conservative brethren…

Good luck!

I hope you aren't doing it because of pressure.

You can tell them to frick off.

Uninformed opinion in my book.
The vaccines are risky and ineffective.

Would you rather go to the Moon in a Saturn rocket thats been four times, or the starship Enterprise right off the drawing board.

The safe vaccine will be out soon

My built by God immunity has already beat the virus once with no assistance. I have ivermectin on standby. Made in USA people vs Chinese bioengineering. If its anything like the rest of the crap they pump out, I'll be fine.

Good analogy!

Unfortunately this is the hand we’ve been dealt- those who think we will just go bouncing through life without having to make tough calls or something bad happening are very mistaken.

Consider this…for the people still considering the vaccine..

How many people do you know who have died from Covid?

How many people do you know who have died from getting vaccinated?

Hmmmmmm…..

ETA- there is a girl who works for me. Super fit. Like marathon runner fit. She got Covid last December and still can’t taste. At all. Who knows if she will ever get her taste back. So yeah, she didn’t die- but can you imagine how much it must suck to worry that you may never get your taste back?

Just curious what put you over the edge with all the news that came out? It doesn't look one bit safer than the virus. You can treat the virus with a laundry list of therapeutics. Not a lot you can do once you got whatever that shot is.

I suspect sarcasm in the OP.

But if not, good for you making a decision for yourself.

But these aren’t the ONLY people dying.

My brother has a patient hooked up to a vent.
The guy is 34 and in good shape.
He has a 5yo son who may be without a dad soon.

Now…we understand the vulnerable will always be more vulnerable, but regular folks are also at risk.

Statistically (more like 70+), if you add in diabetes, it kinda is exactly who’s dying.
