Haven't heard that one yet. However, I did read where the J&J vaccine is made from monkey poop. I think it is funny, but if the was the only vaccine available so that we can get back to normal, I would be in line for it.

I really don't care about those that do not wish to get the vaccination. Use any far fetched, imaginative excuse you wish, but at least be honest. If folks are young and they do not wish to get the vaccination, I figure that they are considering the odds that if they do become infected, they will survive. When seniors refuse a FREE vaccination for something so deadly, I figure that they have had a good life and consider themselves ready to pass on. They better be ready, because if they catch it I have no doubt that they will want their friends and family praying for them. Personally, I am prepared for the afterlife, but I am not yet ready to just give up on life quite yet. Some folks in my family still need me.

Not getting a bunch of serum pumped into me. Until someone tells us it’s safe.

Ok, it's safe. Now you can get the shot?

I really thought ex-school teachers would understand what was meant. 😀

It is posts like the one above that are spreading so much doubt and misinformation. Pile dozens of tiny lies and errors all throwing dirt at the vaccine and you end up with people saying "I've read so many bad things" You're reading garbage, or misunderstanding what you are reading. Please don't post unless you have "verified" the attack on the vaccine and provide links. A misinformed public is far worse than an uninformed public.

Please listen to this man. He is a successful doctor, a pediatrician with stellar background and education.

I so agree about these enormous leaps into areas that have no basis whatsoever. Worrying about mouse DNA in Vaccine is really a stretch and by far not the worst conspiracy theory I have read.

I am NOT a person with credentials in medicine, but any of us can be educated if we stick to valid and reliable sources and avoid the talkers on Youtube.

Regarding the misinformation that there is mouse RNA in the mRNA vaccines, I found this not easy to understand information about molecular and cellular biology. Not being a biologist, alot of this means nothing to me but from what I gather from this is that mice were used as test subjects for the development of the mRNA vaccines. NOT that mice RNA is actually in these mRNA vaccines.

If anyone can actually determine that mice RNA is in these vaccines from this, feel free to explain where this article says that.......

Is she blonde?

Millions died in 1918 from a pandemic and in 1919 it was gone? No vaccines, medications, hand sanitizer back then. I am sure they wore masks but how did it just vanish?

So, why am I not getting the vaccine?

Well, I registered everywhere over a month ago, as I'm sure most of you have done as well.

Now it's too close to my necessary surgery so I'm told by my surgeon not to receive the vaccine, even if GMR miraculously pulls my name out of their vast queue.

Up to now, none of my health care providers seemed to care if I received the vaccine or not.

Respectfully,
The answer is easily found -google a reliable, scientific based resource. It was around for 2 years - killing for 2 years. It did not just “vanish”

Actually it was around for more than one year and less than two - if you want to split hairs. And I believe the point of their post, was that it ran its course, without vaccines - in less than two years...

[Sophie11]

Thank You - Yes this is what I was asking. It has been a year for this one and I wonder if they just go away on their own?

It was such a blessing to the world when the other one died. What did the people do to make it go if anything?

Does anyone know?

Did your surgeon give you a reason for you not to be vaccinated before your surgery?

I have my first pre OP tomorrow. I'll try to get some details at that time.

OK. Hope your surgery goes well.
