No side effects list. I'm also not a "new" "first gen" thing type of person. Let all the negatives pan out and float to the top.

Also, how sketchy it was hiding any need to know side effects when every commercial we've ever heard had to have that fast talker laying it out.

And for you lefties that said you wouldn't have taken it when Trump was President, but jumped at with Biden telling you to do it, I wouldn't have taken it if Trump would have gotten back in office either

You know all the people not posting in this thread must be scared to death.

But do you remember how they shamed and guilted us into not taking it?

Threatened us that we couldn’t go out, to a restaurant, to speak, to not see our friend and loved ones, that we couldn’t travel.

Hell they had drive thru funerals going on because we couldn’t even bury our dead.

Plunged hundreds of thousands of small businesses to close…the biggest upward transfer of wealth in history.

#neverforget

Never forget what they did to our liberty! And frick every last one of them.

I don't trust the people who were telling me I had to get it.

It went against everything i learned in microbiology, immunology and common sense. I watched brilliant doctors go from we’ll get herd immunity in the beginnining, to pushing the “vax”, volunteering for the “vax”shaming you if you didnt get the “vax” and proudly wearing their vaxed and boosted stickers on their badges. Plus it wasnt a vax

I thought it was super rushed and wasn't convinced it was 100% safe.

I got vaccination shots before a missionary trip. No clue how it happened but I ended up with swine flu a few weeks later. That has bothered me ever since.

I also don't like when certain groups say you have to take it but not them.

Because they had been researching mRNA for a couple of decades and in the end all the lab rats always died. That is why I refused.

Pureblood here. My main reason was that mrna technology had NEVER been used before on human populations. My exact thinking was " I'll let the rest of the world be guinea pigs for the medical profession, I'll just wait 3-5 years and decide how safe this is". Well, didn't need to wait 3-5 years.
It was amazing to me how many people blindly took shots and boosters that had NEVER been used on human populations before. The pro covid mrna vaccine propaganda was extreme. Seemed like there was no balance in reporting anything negative.
My skepticism has only increased and whatever trust I had in the medical profession in general has severely gone down. I now wonder if there is a link between all these vaccines and things like autism and other possible "new" diseases.

Because I’m not a moron! I never wore a mask. I didn’t believe the bullshite because I have common sense. It was definitely a wake up call watching so many idiots put on a mask and appease their handlers. fricking lemmings

Because I'm not retarded would be the main reason.

Primary reason: The pressure and propaganda surrounding the gene therapy was creepy and disturbing.

Secondary reasons:
The illness itself was nothing to fear

Ivermectin worked wonderfully

The lack of tests was deeply concerning

I refused to inject myself in order to be able to move freely.

Originally I did not get it because it was for the elderly and the comorbid people. I knew healthy people who were getting the jab because they had a "connection" They said they could get me in but I said no because I was waiting.

I also remember Fauci saying it would take years to safely test a vaccine, so I was concerned about that.

As time went on and I started compiling all the BS like masks, social distancing, closing one kind of store but not another kind of store, not allow people in outdoor spaces etc. my BS meter was pinned. So I hesitated again. I stopped wearing a mask about 4 weeks into the whole mask thing.

When they started offering t-shirts, happy meals, gift cards and I knew people who had covid and got better, I realized not only was it not necessary, but it was total BS, bordering on criminal, especially when they started threatening people.

Then I watched people who got the shot get covid multiple times - I still have never had it to my knowledge - never tested positive.

When it comes to my health I make my own decisions and do not rely on government. Then the massive push for everyone to get the vax I felt there was something more to this. It also had a 99% survival rate so what’s the problem.

These two reasons are both number one for me.

good morning dumbo pot

i caught COVID twice.

I am a pure blood

rather take my chances with that and use natural remedies than getting killed by myocarditis induced cardiac issues, pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis.

Pure Blood here, as well as my entire family. My reason was simple. I am a student of history and therefore know never to trust the Government, ever!

Are you giving me hell because I don't like the fact that former never Trumper's Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin are big Trumpers now?

I’ve been for real protective devices and had patients in negative pressure rooms. Ripping the sleeve off a tshirt and strapping it across my face wasn’t gonna stop anything actually dangerous.
