webmd.com ^ | July 16, 2021 | Dennis Thompson

Public health officials and government workers are trying everything they can to promote COVID-19 vaccination — advertisements, news releases, cash lotteries, and even incentives like free beer, joints or doughnuts in some places.

But nothing sways a vaccine-hesitant person more than a word with a family member, friend or their own doctor, a new Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) poll reveals.

I spoke with two doctors and my family but I wasn't opposed to getting the shots.

What a shame that our government under Democrats and its sycophantic media have so badly damaged their own credibility.

The medical and legal professions, by virtue of their esoteric econony of words and ideas, are above common citizen oversight and they know it.

Just what is going on here ?

My doc got the shot...had a conversation with him a few months ago...told him I was waiting...He seemed convinced the mRna was next best thing...even as a MD who also has a master’s in Epidemiology . And, NO ONE in my family would try and convince me to get the shot...they know better.

Just yesterday, the wife and I visited a married couple with whom we are friends and whom we hadn't seen for a few months.

I usually refrain from making comments about a person's appearance, but couldn't help blurting out to the man, "Don't you feel well? You look tired!"

He explained that he had gotten his second shot just two days ago, and was still feeling under the weather.

Again and again, I've heard from work colleagues who have gotten vaccinated and then felt like crap for a couple of days afterwards.

I know that this is anecdotal, but my real-world experience is that my bout of COVID was less traumatic than the "vaccines" are.

Regards,

Sanctioned Manipulation

Imagine knowing that you convinced a loved one to take the JAB, and they later died or became maimed from it.

Prepare to be assimilated.
We will use your own family to pressure you to have a toxic ‘vaccine’ in order to fit in.
We will show them you are selfish and cruel, and teach them to cry until you give in.
All Your Body R belong to us!

They try that with me, and they will turn my “no” into a “go #~(|< yourself”.

Wouldn’t be the first family members and friends thrown to the wayside for political or social idiocy.
