Will you take the vaccine?

Before I go on I’ll state my belief that we will be coerced into it. Doctors, grocery stores, airlines, etc., will have a no-vaccine no-entry policy. Sure, it won’t be mandated, but if you want to eat and get treated for a broken leg you’ll have to have it.

I‘m very resistant. I admit I have a lot of anxiety about it. I know someone who developed Guillain-Barre from (possibly) a flu shot. It was horrible to see a strong man go from upright to paralyzed and on disability in the space of an afternoon. It’s been years, and he will never be the same. But I’m resistant anyway because I don’t trust any of this to be what they say it is. Even if masses of people die from the vaccine Big Media will cover it up. I so look forward to judgment day.

After struggling with this pretty much all year it finally occurred to me to talk with my hubby about it and leave the decision up to him. I’m a slow learner. He’s wise and will do the right thing for us.

This is all very interesting to me, to see this line of thinking actually (finally) being brought into the public consciousness, because I've NEVER trusted vaccines. My dad made the decision that none of his kids would be vaccinated as children based solely on the fact that manufacturers are so completely shielded from liability. He certainly looked into and was aware of the various risks and the potential for using vaccination as a covert delivery system for undisclosed substances, but that was all extraneous to the core fact that without liability, the entire system must be held as suspect - at the very least.

Bottom line: liability and compensation for vaccine injury is strictly limited BY LAW because without these limitations, the industry would not even be viable, let alone massively profitable. Most people don't even know about this, and if I say something that comes across as being "anti-vax," they jump right into accusing me of suggesting that vaccines directly cause autism (which I have literally never suggested). My little bro didn't even believe me the other day when I started telling him about the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act. He wanted me to basically "cite my sources" because "it should basically be legally impossible to get that kind of immunity from liability." - rofl, uhhh, exactly.

No vaccines for me, no vaccines for my kiddos. E V E R.

I've built my whole life around being able to give people the finger, (usually) metaphorically speaking, if they try to coerce me into doing anything. You think I NEED whatever it is you can hold over my head? LOL, nice try. The only things I need are the things I have every right to use force to defend.

Granted, it's entirely possible that I could be forcibly vaccinated, but never willingly. I'm not that big or strong and my most lethal weapon-at-hand is probably a rolling pin or a cast iron pan. But if it ever comes to that, you better believe I can make them work for it. They can chase me down and wrestle me into submission and jab me somewhere in full view of the public (or if it's in my home, I'LL have the video footage). We'll just say this sort of scenario would constitute the juncture at which Lady Justice begins singing a different tune. :blush:

At the beginning of the pandemic, my husband said something about being first in line for the vaccine when it came out. I've slowly brought him around by way of breadcrumbs (money trails and financial interests, "deals" cut between manufacturers and lawmakers, entire populations "accidentally" sterilized, vaccine-strain epidemics, etc.).

My lil bro also poked his head into the garage yesterday while I was working and was basically like "Whoa, yeah, there are some seriously legitimate concerns about this coronavirus vaccine from a safety standpoint based on XYZ."

It's very, VERY interesting now that so many of the people who used to attempt to discredit me with great prejudice for being suspicious of vaccines have now started picking up on the critically important and easily observable realities of this situation on paper - which they previously ignored in favor of deboooonking the purpose-built conspiracy theories they're given as "fodder for ridicule" by the big media.

I think their hamsters have begun to sense the presence of the snake.

I will absolutely not allow my children to get it in anyway. As for myself, I wouldn’t get it willingly. My husband heard through the grape-vine at his work that the higher-ups want them all to have the vaccine before they can return to “in-person” work... That’s what I’m most worried about. He can’t just switch jobs since his contract doesn’t end for two years. But I’m pretty sure he and his colleagues would fight it in court for sure.

I definitely think it’s interesting that the “My body, my choice” crowd are the ones panting so hard to force people to take this experimental vaccine.

My issue is I have crohns. I have see a GI regularly. If it’s no-vaccine no-service I’m in trouble.
Could you communicate directly with your doc about this, should the vaccine be made mandatory? He will for sure make an exception. He can't be that cruel.

I’m going to talk to him. My approach, and it’s legit, will be with crohn’s you do not want to mess around with your immune system if things are going well. Things are going very well for me right now. He may agree, but his hands may be tied. I just hope there will be docs who don’t toe the propaganda line.

I think there will be. Every doctor should recognize that it is absurd to bar people from medical treatment on the basis that they are not vaccinated. Vaccination is supposed to protect the individual that receives the vaccine. If you choose not to receive it, in "theory" that would be only your loss. If it's a doctor who works at a big hospital or a University that may be another story, but there should be docs at smaller practices that will see you. I hope this is the case but we'll wait and see. Alternatively if you are barred treatment you could sue, perhaps that would not be a bad idea. Someone is going to have to do it eventually!

Because I'm confident in my ability to understand descriptive and inferential statistics in order to comprehend the risks versus the benefits of the vaccine, I will absolutely be getting it.
I assume you're over 60? Because we know the survival rate for those under 60 is 99.8%, and we also know there are zero statistics re the effects of the vaccine on fertility, children born to vaccinated women, etc., because it hasn't existed long enough to yield such statistics.
