That's true. But it was marketed to the medical community and Mom's in particular ... as a safe, effective, remedy for nausea. Did not pan out well for many newborns and their Mom's. But it took years for this to be evident. That was my point. We don't know what the long term effects will be as it relates to the 2 month clinical trial of the vaccine. Just sayin'. Drug companies, pharma companies, governments . . . all have their reasons for pushing their products through.

2. You accept lots of mandates already. If you choose to go to certain countries, you agree to abide by certain vaccine mandates. Refusing to go to a country "BECAUSE" they require you to be vaccinated is a pretty dumb reason to refuse to go. There are much more intelligent reasons to refuse to go to those other countries (such as - I don't want to - which is a perfectly intelligent reason to not go). 3. Cutting off your nose to spite your face is childish behavior. |

I too worry about the gov overstepping it's authority, by mandating more and more of our lives, but that is political and I will stay away from that, less I cause an early termination of this thread. I respect your decision to decline the vaccinations, and you will probably be fine.....probably. After all, the chances of catching it right now is very low. The chances of survival if infected is very high, and if most everyone else around you is inoculated and immune, then you will stay healthy without having to take the chance of long term after effects of the vaccine. However, IF you should contract the virus there is a chance that you will die a nasty long suffering demise, with a hose in your mouth keeping you from complaining, and no family or friends to comfort you during your last miserable days. But, that probably won't happen to you, right? I have no doubt that if I would have been infected, that I would have shrugged off the virus in a couple days, if symptomatic at all. However, now I don't have to consider that, do I? Have a great life, and stand by your principles, because I am sure there are others like myself that applaud your tenacity. I am 100% sure that now, my spouse and I can cross that worry off our list of concerns in our twilight period.

Thalidomide was a drug not a vaccine.
This is not the first time that an mRNA vaccine has been used in humans. The first human trial of an mRNA vaccine began in 2009 in a small group of patients who had prostate cancer. Overall, that mRNA vaccine was well tolerated and had a good safety profile. In 2013 a clinical trial began of an mRNA rabies vaccine in healthy human adults. This rabies trial was important because the safety requirements for a vaccine in a healthy population are more stringent than those for a vaccine being used to treat a disease. The study ran from 2013-2016, and continues to collect long-term safety data. But overall, this vaccine was deemed generally safe and tolerable. mRNA vaccines are now in use in clinical trials for HIV, the Zika virus, and influenza. Scientists project that the Covid Vaccines which are based on the same methodology will be highly unlikely to have long term side effects. Sure, we won't be 100% sure until we complete years of study, but since we need an emergency vaccine, the evidence is there to make using it a no brainer when we have had over 500,000 people die in this country during this pandemic. There are no short term effects, and longer term data we have at present suggests it will be safe as well, to combat a very deadly virus. |

I did read that the reason this was able to be approved so fast had to do with cutting through a lot of bureaucracy and providing sufficient financial aid, not approving a vaccine that hadn't been sufficiently tested.

Fact remains that vaccinations are lowering the death rate and infection rate

Agreed. Anyone who believed that the vaccine was a one-and- done really is confused. It's like spraying for mosquitos in the south. You have to do it repeatedly.

Drug companies make drugs to help people get better and to save their lives. They are not evil. They are manufacturing companies and they do make money.......and in so doing provide a lot of jobs as well. We have got to stop eating up every exaggeration and inaccurate fact we are presented. I think they overcharge sometimes but they aren't out to kill us or to hurt us. AND while I am sorta on this subject. Folks who use the term " Big Pharma" are often under the influence of a lot of what I call quackery from alternative medicine, taking supplements that make those people tons of money as well. Go to a doctor you trust who has a traditional medical background and do what he/she says to do. Now remember I am not a medical person, just someone who tries very hard to find the truth.

You also have to do your part by not creating pools of standing water. Similarly to wearing a mask, washing your hands, and social distancing with regards to preventing a virus, you have to do some preventative stuff of your own, even after you spray with pesticides.

Also, high cholesterol isn't an illness. It's not something that can be "cured." Just like a natural deficiency in Vitamin D3 - you can take D3 to supplement and bring your levels up, but if you stop taking it, your levels will drop again. There is no "cure" for a Vitamin D3 deficiency. There is also no "cure" for a cold. And there's no "cure" for many many other physiological malfunctions. That doesn't mean "Big Pharma" is doing something wrong. It means for those things that can actually be treated, Big Pharma is doing its best to treat them. But don't just dump the lack of a "cure" for high cholesterol and hypertension on Big Pharma. |

My problem with these posts is that many of them are encouraging people NOT to get the vaccine, and essentially telling people to play Russian Roulette with their LIVES! Here is another link just released about the J&J vaccine. Coronavirus vaccines: How J&J's is different from the others This also dispels the myth that people have died from the vaccine. NOBODY has died from the vaccine - and there have been very few allergic reactions. Sure there have been a few people who dies after getting the vaccine, but not related to the vaccine. And considering it can be up to 4 weeks before you are protected, it's still best to be cautious and use common sense. Don't buy into the rhetoric from people who claim to be nurses or doctors or whatever. Read the facts please! We don't want anyone to hesitate at a chance to protect themselves. |
