Each of us are not “coerced” into taking them.

Over three thousand deaths have been reported linked to the Covid vaccines. Afterwards, these cases are reviewed and the CDC (who is pushing these vaccines) finds no causallity. Gee, you think that there might be a little bias there?

Futher, tens of thousands of cases of bad reactions have been reported. You say only 6 out of 8 million blood clots, well guess what, it really sucks if you are one of those 6. Especially if you have a permanat injury because you CAN NOT sue the manufacture.

Oh and let me tell you something from personal expeience from anaphylaxis. When you are struggling to BREATH - you don’t give a d**n about the numbers. All you are worried about is your next breath.

So go get the shot if you want it. I am going to wait for the Oramed vaccine as it is based on older protien technology and not monkey with my RNA / DNA.

and calling shingles, herpes, discredited the information for you?

The information could be 100% factual, and perhaps very informative. They KNEW saying "herpes" in the headline would illicit a stronger emotional response (and more clicks) than if they said "shingles". Or if they said "shingles, a form of herpes".

Nobody I have ever known who's had shingles (and I've known many) has said they've had "herpes". They said they had "shingles". I fully concede that shingles is a form of herpes. No argument. But the NY Post KNEW that they'd have a splashier headline by saying herpes than by saying shingles.

I like the Post. They had the guts to take on the Hunter Biden issue when almost nobody else would. But this is an act of sensationalism that they did not need. Reminds me of Gateway Pundit.

As per tradition, I see that many FReepers only read the headline

Which, in my opinion, is EXACTLY what the NY Post wanted when they wrote it.

A colleague’s wife developed shingles after getting the vaccine. It’s apparently a common side-effect that the media doesn’t really care about.

"Over three thousand deaths have been reported linked to the Covid vaccines."

No, they haven't. I'm sure you're referencing VAERS. You should look at the VAERS website itself. Specifically, where it directly states that "The report of an adverse event to VAERS is not documentation that a vaccine caused the event." (their emphasis, not mine).

"You say only 6 out of 8 million blood clots, well guess what, it really sucks if you are one of those 6."

Sure, almost as much as it sucks for the 0.65% (Infection Fatality Rate) of that 8 million who would die if they all got COVID-19. That's about 52,000 people. Blood clots are treatable. Death is not. 6 people getting treatment for blood clots is preferable to 52,000 people dying.

Some here say the CDC is in bed with the Chicoms........

Yet they use VAERS from a Gov. web-site as Gospel.

Even more, certain people here say the present vaccines don’t have FDA approval........

But I gotta a feeling if the FDA gave its approval tomorrow, the FDA would suddenly “be in bed with the CCP” and that approval would be meaningless.

Q is dead......Long Live the Vaccine Conspiracy!

Sorry, you are incorrect. The CDC reports in VAERS, that over 3,486 reports of death among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. Those reports are linked to Covid. Does the CDC (who is pushing the vaccine) think that those cases for causality ... no of course not, but again, any bias there? I think that there is a strong bias against any kind of association between the vaccine and deaths or injuries.

Again, if you want to take the risk of major life altering or possible death by getting an unproven, experimental vaccine in response to a HIGHLY SURVIVABLE flu like infection, go for it.

I have it on good authority that the vaccines were made by space aliens with the help of Elvis and Bat Boy.

The problem is that you don’t understand how VAERS works. VAERS is an EVENT reporting system. Not a REACTION reporting system. Any adverse EVENT that happens to someone after a vaccination get reported - by law - into VAERS.

Take Hank Aaron. He died of natural causes, consistent with his medical history. No indication of any vaccine reaction. Yet his death is in VAERS. Why? It’s an adverse event and it happened after getting the vaccine. The Fulton County medical examiner ruled out the vaccine as a cause of death, but VAERS still has it recorded.

The COVID-19 vaccines were prioritized for the elderly. If you give a few million elderly people anything - be it a COVID-19 vaccine, Tylenol, a handshake, or a glass of water - some of them will be dead within a few weeks. Do handshakes and glasses of water cause death? No, they were going to die either way. But if those people got vaccines within a few weeks of dying, VAERS records it as a death.

VAERS itself tells you right on the website that the reports in VAERS do NOT indicate that the event was CAUSED by the vaccine. Why are you so willing to pull the data out of VAERS and use that to further a narrative but so unwilling to listen to the people who RUN the system who say you’re using it wrong?

Read the Article:

“Out of 491 patients, six people or 1.2 percent experienced the infection, researchers said.”

I literally had no idea that Freepers were so trusting of government reports. I mean there’s no reason why the liberal governments of the world would under-report these adviser numbers. None whatsoever right?

They must spend all their spare time scouring the web for adverse information on the vaccines. One of my favorites was about one women who had a reaction in New Zealand.

I’m safe, I’ve had the shingles vaccine too.
