I have almost 20 years in healthcare as a Paramedic Supervisor, Emergency/ICU RN, and Coroner and I am not an anti-vaxxer, just a anti-COVID vaxxer. I'll just stick with the vaccines that were tested the old fashioned way for 12-15 years before unleashing them on the public.

Until my doctor says no will continue

Agree with this. Hubby and I have had Covid only once that we know of. Both of us experienced very mild symptoms.......thanks to the vaccine.

Incredible that doubters continue to downplay the virus as well as the vaccine

You don't. You just assume that's the case.

Yes, that is true but why temp fate? I prefer to go with the protection the vaccines offer.

So wrong to say that. Misinformation at its finest.

The headline and the info in the article don't really jive...

So no, it's not BUNK!!!!

"Messenger RNA, or mRNA, was discovered in the early 1960s; research into how mRNA could be delivered into cells was developed in the 1970s. So, why did it take until the global COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 for the first mRNA vaccine to be brought to market? "

"THERE’S A BIG GAP BETWEEN WHEN THE FIRST MRNA FLU VACCINE WAS TESTED IN MICE IN THE 1990S AND WHEN THE FIRST MRNA VACCINES FOR RABIES WERE TESTED IN HUMANS IN 2013."

I had a very mild case of Covid a year before any vaccine was available. Whom do I thank?

What is wrong with that statement? It is factually correct.

Now I caught covid long before there was any vaccine. 36-48 hrs of some coughing, a low grade fever, some chills and body aches and I was "tired" for a few days...

Please explain that...

Viral load.
