It is an opinion only spun up in the web of your head by allowing in only information that suited your agenda. There is a real world out there, with people who are on the front lines. They are the ones who have the facts- not conspiracy theorist waving signs. What would it hurt to ask for facts from people who work hands on with this disease? Why is it so important to you to believe and tell a lie?
Awesome post, thank you.

It's sad that people would rather watch bloggers ranting and raving about something they have no experience in and then choose to follow the lies. A vaccine thread always turns silly so I love to see the straight truth told.

Start getting chills on the plane from Iceland and then developed the cough on our stop in Boston. Probably got it in Scotland where we stayed for one week. We were there for a funeral.

Hmmm 🤔. The person is simply stating their perspective on how the virus manifests in society. I don’t see anything in that post indicating they do not feel compassion for those who who get sick and/or die. Or for their families.

In my post I told you I tested postive. Walgreens has the less then one hour result for $19.00.

I followed the procedure that Walgreens tells you when you make the appointment for the test. I did wear a MASK when I entered the store and also while waiting to get tested. The drive thru is not used for testing like it was two years ago when you needed a negative result in order to take a cruise.

Well of course you did! How do you know if you have Covid if you do not get tested? Also it is recommended to start treatment as early as possible for it to be most effective. So you did the most logical thing. Now for people who do not believe in Covid or think it was made up by big Pharma in the first place, I understand that they can’t see why you did it.

Many doctors with "real world experience" as well as health departments of other countries have arrived at different conclusions concerning the shot and it's safety. In the US, health officials recommend that everyone over the age of 6 months receives the latest annual covid-19 vaccine, while the UK and other European countries are restricting it to older or vulnerable people. I would propose all reconsider their attitude and treatment of others who disagree with you.

Start eating carnivore and build your immunity. Plus all the other great benefits of a carnivore lifestyle. It’s like turning back time.

When life expectancy was 33 years old? Heck, they didn’t even need a 55 plus retirement community!

Default Afib

Sorry to hear you have afib. Hope your ablation went well. Afib is rare after a covid vaccination. A total of 2611 events of AF were reported after COVID-19 vaccination, of which, 315 were new-onset AF. As of January 7, 2022, a total of 523.12 million COVID-19 vaccine doses were administered, making the incidence of atrial fibrillation around 5 per million COVID-19 vaccine doses administered.

Good, reasonable, rational advice for one and all. Thanks, Penny

Got my booster yesterday. Several people I knew died from Covid. Others now suffer from Long Covid.
