Unfortunately, it’s like a job. You have to work on it every day, read about it everyday and sign up on multiple sites. It can and will happen if you do this.

Misinformation...this is not an ‘answer’ to COVID. It’s only (!) going to reduce the severity of symptoms. I’ll take that!

I replied with a link to a video posted on the American Front Line Doctors Website and the media super power blocked my post. I hope you people can see what is going on to control our thinking on all subjects.

I encourage to search for the video on the Front Line Doctors and watch the whole thing. It is very educational and you will not get this information on the State Cntrld M S Media.

Not gunna get it. This is the same government that said Agent Orange would save lives. Yes it did at the time, but daily now our buds are dropping from its after effects. I’ll just keep washing my hands and stay vigilant about getting to close to others.

Hmmmmm, something to think about.....

According to the government... If I get vaccinated: 💉💉💉

1.- Can I stop wearing the mask?
Government Response - No

2.- Can they reopen restaurants, pubs, bars etc and everyone work normally?
Government Response - No

3.- Will I be resistant to covid?
Government Response - Maybe, but we don't know exactly, it probably won't stop you getting it

4.- At least I won't be contagious to others anymore?
Government Response - No you can still pass it on, possibly, nobody knows.

5.- If we vaccinate all children, will school resume normally?
Government Response - No

6.- If I am vaccinated, can I stop social distancing?
Government Response - No

7.- If I am vaccinated, can I stop disinfecting my hands?
Government Response - No

8.- If I vaccinate myself and my grandfather, can we hug each other?
Government Response - No

9.- Will cinemas, theatres and stadiums be reopened normally thanks to vaccines?
Government Response - No

10.- Will the vaccinated be able to gather?
Government Response - No

11.- What is the real benefit of vaccination?
Government Response - The virus won't kill you.

12.- Are you sure it won't kill me?
Government Response - No

13.- If statistically the virus won't kill me anyway ... Why would I get vaccinated?"
Government Response - To protect others.

14.- So if I get vaccinated, the others are 100% sure I'm not infecting them?
Government Response - No

So to summarise, the Covid19 vaccine...

Does not give immunity.
Does not eliminate the virus.
Does not prevent death.
Does not guarantee you won’t get it.
Does not prevent you from getting it.
Does not stop you passing it on
Does not eliminate the need for travel bans.
Does not eliminate the need for business closures.
Does not eliminate the need for lockdowns.
Does not eliminate the need for masking.

So...what the heck is it actually doing? 🤦🏼*♂️🤷🏼*♂️

I don't care whether you get the vaccination or not. No skin off my back. I just hate to see the reasoning being due to pure ignorance. If you are scared, OK and I understand. Fear is a powerful thing. I have not allowed the pandemic to stop me for getting out and about, but I have been protective of my wife. I refuse to allow this virus to rule my life so I went along with my wife and got my shot when she got hers. Still waiting for the second shot. I don't get the flu and I do not get the flu shot. I rarely catch a cold and if I do/did it lasts about three days max. Although, I can't remember having a cold in the last fifteen years or so. I am healthy for my age. If I thought the vaccination was dangerous, I would not have gotten it. As far as I am concerned, and with the reading I have done, this vaccination is way less dangerous and way more effective than the flu shot. My opinion.
It's great that some of us believe we are immune to illness, especially when there is no evidence of being in contact with the infected. Unlike some of the mask wearers, I do not believe that everyone I meet is infected with the demon virus. But, I go along with wearing a mask because it does have some filtering aspects and because it makes others feel more comfortable.

I have had two family members that have died recently, both testing positive for COVID. Did they die because of COVID or WITH Covid? Who knows? On the other hand, I know of at least a dozen or more that have survived the virus, including my kids and some of my grandkids. Some shrugged it off with hardly a symptom, but tested positive. Some suffered harshly as if they had a serious flu. My decision was not based on the CDC, as I do not trust that political organization. My decision to get the vaccination was based on reading many different studies and expert opinions. If further down the line, I develop some residue effects from the serum, so be it. Life is finite, no matter how well you take care of yourself. Everything you do from day to day is a gamble of some sort.
I have no problem with you all declining the vaccine. It just means that my children will be eligible faster.
Speaking of gambling, isn't it interesting that casinos are open but churches are closed in many places?

21% of people who get the vaccine have serious side effects.the vaccine was not tested on animals. Stage one and two safety test was not done. Personally have had two major side effects from drugs. Not worth the risk when mortality is lower then the normal flu. Besides I have already had it.

The 21% number is another of those "Facebook" videos that have been debunked.

"Serious" is up for interpretation. Most of the "side effects" are indicators that the vaccine is working by causing the body to produce antibodies and the immune process. Just my opinion, and I may be wrong but it seems to me that "side effects" are way better than being dead. Then again, some folks complain so much that perhaps they do not see it my way.

Added: Last night, there was a guy on the news that has had the virus twice. The second time was worst than the first time. Don't think that just because you have had it, you won't catch it again. Besides, they are saying that the anti-bodies you create are only good for about two to three months after infection.

I'm not old enough to get it yet which is okay in my opinion because I can see how the effects play our for others while I'm waiting. I am undecided whether to get it or not. My sister in law who is my age received it at her work and she now has problems with short term memory.

Bet that is a first.

And the mortality rate of Covid is 1,000 times greater than the flu for 50 year olds and 15,000 times greater than the flu for 75 year olds.

Again, skip the vaccine for whatever reason you have but stop spreading dangerous misinformation!
