As a dentist of 40 year I beg to differ. From my experience with injections, I feel needle phobia is the underlying driving force of vaccine avoidance.
I'm no dentist, but aren't most of your injections local anesthetics in the gums and mouth?
As someone who hates needles, I can see how those would be more horrific and far more scary than an injection in the arm.

Anesthesia is the most terrifying injection for me

He has no link. The virus has a 1.78% mortality rate in the US. This isn't even debatable.
This country has gone full retard. If you believe that 1.78% of the people that have contracted the virus are now dead because of the virus, you are leading the charge to retard-nation.

It is also the conflation of “died of Covid” vs “died with Covid”, IMHO.
If you died in a car accident and had Covid at the time, you died WITH Covid, not OF Covid.
Same thing with heart attacks / strokes, violent deaths, cancer, etc.
It being a contributing factor doesn’t mean it was even a significant one.

After reading the FDA document on the PCR testing I’m 100% convinced they just renamed flu/common cold so they could push this vaccine. What really pisses me off is all of this information is public for anyone willing to look for themselves yet most people will continue to just follow the narrative and do what they are told. The sooner the world knows the truth about this facade, the sooner this pandemic ends.

And there's a significant percentage of "Covid deaths" where the virus played zero role.
And as far as Covid mortality, the numerator the genius was using is problematic, also. Even the CDC understands (and has posted/published) that the number of Americans that have had the virus is much, much greater than the number that have tested positive. Back in May they did an analysis that ended with their suggestion that, at that time, well over 100 million Americans had the virus at some point in time.

I think needle phobia is real,in my case it wasn’t so much taking shots as giving them.My first few years as I nurse I couldn’t stand to stick needles in people.When I had to give an I.M. injection I would talk a co- worker into giving it for me.Of course,they laughed at me but I didn’t care.Eventually I ran into situations where I had to do it myself and kinda got used to I,but I never liked it.Thankfully,in ICU we didn’t give many IM injections.
Once I was working E.R.and had to give a toddler a penicillin injection( that’s a big needle,16 ga.).I felt like I was going to throw up afterwards.
