Even though it has been documented that the mother passes the immunity to the child?

What a dumb statement.......if I don’t want a foreign substance shot into my body because there not enough data to back it up....how is that selfish? What is selfish is people trying to push, demand, and shame people into doing something they feel is not healthy for them.
People get sick from the shot because you are putting a mRNA (foreign substance) into your body, your body rejects it and tries to fight it. now if that’s okay with you go get your shot and be happy.......but if it is not okay with you YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO SAY NO THANK YOU.
It has nothing with being selfish it has to do with doing what you feel is right for you. That beefing NO I am not getting the guinea pig shot and yes I practice the guidelines I wear my mask, I social distance and I wash my hand all day everyday. So I am doing my part to stay healthy for me and my family.
So stop calling people who have made a decision about their rights selfish is wrong and childish

Well said

So, when you contract Covid and are hospitalized, you may have a different opinion.

There are millions in India right now who would love for the opportunity to get vaccinated so they won't die.

Not getting the vaccine is being extremely selfish.

Even more of a reason. Because now the mom will pass a foreign mRNA ( messenger-ribonucleis acid) to her child .....no thank you

Medications are foreign substances too. Are you medication free? Please don't answer that, just think about it. RNA is part of every cell in our bodies so it is not foreign to our bodies. Personally, I have read up so much on the mRNA vaccines (Moderna and Pfizer) before I was vaccinated so I had an idea of what the technology was. I am thrilled that this technology exists and felt very safe receiving my vaccination.

This is information from the CDC (hope you trust the information from them) to get a better understanding of what this "foreign substance" actually is all about........

Understanding mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines | CDC

Just wondering why do you believe a substance (RNA) that is part of every cell in our bodies is foreign? The messenger is just that....a messenger that is eliminated from the body once it gives instructions for our immune systems to launch a defense if it comes in contact with the Covid virus. This is the "beauty" if you will, of these mRNA vaccines. Why do you keep perpetuating the idea that RNA is foreign? I'd really like to know. Thanks.

Because Covid-19 does kill people. I don't know what a "Nanny State" means but it does sound like your resistance to being vaccinated has something to do with resisting government. I don't like big government or Federal and State government wasting money and being involved in secular decisions either.

I do know that we have willingly stuck out our arms before to put things like Polio and Smallpox in the past. This is the same thing. We save our lives and in so doing we protect others too. I was relieved to take the shot from Moderna. I was extremely happy to be protected against this disease that could have killed me and my precious husband and our daughter who is vulnerable because of congenital cardio-vascular issues. I can't imagine why people are believing false narratives about vaccination against Covid-19.

When I read these posts, it’s good to read that there are so many people in TV who listen to science.
Covid is a new flu that is more virulent and deadly (570,000 dead) than other flus. We will probably hv to add COVID flu shots to regular flu shots every year. I’ll wear a mask indoors as long as needed.

You do realize, of course that is absolutely impossible....

Messenger RNA has been studied and applied for decades - discovered I think 60 years ago. The ONLY problem that science and medical had? It degraded too fast to be used. That was the only issue.

And yet there are people who simply don't care and selfishly refuse to get the vaccine, thereby increasing the infection number and keeping the virus alive and active by providing hosts.

The only good thing? Survival of the fittest - maybe this will cull people who have a predisposition to find a conspiracy under every rock from the ranks of humanity.

Good riddance...

As I have posted before, based on the statistics provided by the CDC, the chances of me being hospitalized with Covid are less than 4/100’s of 1%...
Those are odds I’m comfortable with...

COVID-19 is not a flu of any kind. "Flu" is short for "influenza virus." "COVID-19" is short for "Corona VIrus Disease, 2019 version."

Influenza virus is not coronavirus. Two different virii. Sort of like the difference between water paint and oil paint. They're both paint but they are treated very differently.

Actually, it is related to the common cold, not a flu at all.

Coronaviruses are a group of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds.

In humans and birds, they cause respiratory tract infections that can range from mild to lethal.

Mild illnesses in humans include some cases of the common cold (which is also caused by other viruses, predominantly rhinoviruses), while more lethal varieties can cause SARS, MERS, and COVID-19.
