What's Behind Vaccine Hysteria?
American Thinker ^ | 7 May, 2021 | Sally Zelikovsky

Posted on 05/07/2021 3:40:33 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Hysterical people are scrambling to figure out how to get the vaccine hesitant to capitulate.

If you are reluctant to get the COVID vaccine and beginning to feel overrun by forces pressuring you to get vaccinated, you aren’t alone and you aren’t crazy. There’s a reason you feel the way you do. You are being manipulated.

We are being bombarded with commercials pushing us to be socially responsible. Medical professionals, celebrities, and folks in our communities admonish us not to shirk our civic duty. Suddenly, the vaccine is the only way to normalcy.

Friends and family openly brag about their vaccinations and gasp in astonishment when they find out you haven’t decided or, worse, that you will not get it. Doctors who inquire also give that disapproving look.

The president routinely stokes fear, recently decrying the unvaccinated. Andrew Cuomo had the gall to suggest that the unvaccinated “could kill their own grandmother.”

Adding to the pile-on, we are now besieged with “incentive” programs offered by public-private partnerships that essentially divide us into the vaxxed and the unvaxxed… and it’s becoming downright creepy.

First, the simple “get jabbed, get a gift” incentives. Following a similar program in Connecticut, New Jersey’s governor launched the “Shot and a Beer” program where those who get vaccinated in May get a free beer at participating breweries upon presentation of a “vaccination card.” He’s also promoting a “Grateful for the Shot” program that whisks churchgoers away from religious services to vaccination sites.

They are that cruel and yes they will deny healthcare to people.

Unintended consequences.

Over 245 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through May 3, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 4,178 reports of death (0.0017%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine. CDC and FDA physicians review each case report of death as soon as notified and CDC requests medical records to further assess reports.

A review of available clinical information, including death certificates, autopsy, and medical records has not established a causal link to COVID-19 vaccines. However, recent reports indicate a plausible causal relationship between the J&J/Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine and a rare and serious adverse event—blood clots with low platelets—which has caused deaths.

Lol, “wide-scale development from many companies for decades”. And to date all previous attempts at mRNA “vaccines” have been absolute failures.
It still comes down to this. What is the bigger threat, adverse reactions from experimental injections or COVID19? It looks like COVID19 has been around now for a year and a half. I can’t believe that I haven’t been exposed to it. It is more likely that by now I am immune to it. And, worst case scenario, 99.7% survivable.
There are too many unknowns with these “vaccines” to make them acceptable.

“Covid is burning itself out. It should have happened a long time ago...except WELL PEOPLE were confined and caused a second wave.”

Agreed. Forced quarantine of the general population was a terrible public policy decision that has prolonged the flu season and herd immunity. But at least the oligarchy succeeded in their 2020 election coup, so it was worth it to them.

Those mRNA “vaxxes” weren’t in use because they ended up killing all the lab critters they were tested on. The lab critters now, is YOU.

Exactly!! It astounds me that so many people ignore or completely misunderstand the word “experimental”.

I was absolutely livid yesterday as I walked into the store and had to wear a damn mask...which does nothing except deny me fresh air.


Serious question, why would you knowingly follow a sign that is not good for your health, and helps to brainwash youngsters? What do you think is going to happen if you don’t wear a mask?

"And to date all previous attempts at mRNA “vaccines” have been absolute failures."

That's just not true. The biggest sticking point until a couple years ago was packaging the mRNA in something that could enter a human cell's cytoplasm and wouldn't be immediately attacked by the immune system. The solution was a lipid shell. Once that problem was solved, the rest fell into place. That's why Pfizer (who has been making different products for a long, long time) felt the mRNA platform was their best bet to win the race to a safe and effective vaccine. What "failures" are you even talking about?

"What is the bigger threat, adverse reactions from experimental injections or COVID19?"

Well, COVID-19 has a 5% chance of putting someone in the hospital if they catch it, a 3% chance of putting them in the ICU, and a 0.65% chance of putting them six feet under. That's for the population as a whole. For the most vulnerable (80+ years old), that risk of death jumps to somewhere around 18%. Assuming about 80% of Americans eventually are exposed, and assuming 0.65% die, that's 1.7 million deaths.

Each new vaccine or medicine that comes on the market is "new". That's why we do clinical trials. The first clinical trial participants for the COVID-19 vaccines got their shots over a year ago (March 16, 2020). They're doing fine. There have been no major incidents, no mass die-offs, not even a single death where a medical investigation has determined that a COVID-19 vaccine caused the death in the US. So if COVID-19 kills 1.7 million and the vaccines kill none while preventing those deaths, that's a pretty good trade.

You want to know what the effects of the vaccine are 10 years from now? I want to know what the effects of all the damage COVID-19 does to the heart, lungs, brain, and blood vessels are 10 years from now. All indications are that the people who take the vaccines enjoy a lot of protection from those effects. In the end, each individual needs to make an informed decision about what's best for their own individual health situation.

Not good for your health? Not this nonsense again.

If the masks are so bad for you, why is it that doctors, nurses, dentists, dental hygienists, lab workers, carpenters, contractors, painters, and others have worn masks every day for work for decades on end with no problems? What is so severely malfunctioning in your body that tens of millions of other people can safely wear a mask for hours every day without any problem, but putting one on for 30 minutes while you shop in Costco is going to kill you?

You have a link to the tests where mRNA vaccines killed a bunch of lab animals?

Yadayadayada. Don’t look to me to get reassurance that you made the smart choice in getting experimental injections.

Not with me at the moment, but YOU are a shill for drug companies so I figure you must know where they hide the truth.

But, what I said was true or these mRNA would not be experimental. They would be in use all the time. But...alas they are not. Hence, the issue many have with this jab.

You do know the “hard sell” only makes people more against the jab. It causes mistrust. Perhaps you should change your tactics when trying to persuade people.

Sometimes self-professed smartest ones have no idea how to deal with people. Wish they had a pill for that.

So you don’t have any links to any studies where lab animals died from mRNA injections. Just some name-calling and more wild unsupported claims.

Got it. Thank you!

That was what I read. Where it does or don’t, I do not know. Nor don’t care. But I am not taking the chance that that it does.

You make the mistake assuming any of this theater is designed to stop a pandemic.

Better do some reading.

Survival rate for people with co-morbidities is much higher. Healthy young people should not be in form of lockdown.
