Enough, already. So you don’t want to get the shot, that’s your business. But the incessantly ridiculous posts (not just yours, ALL of the antivax crap coming from loony tune sources) are ruining FR.

Couldn’t agree more.
I got the vax, and had mixed feelings about it, but ultimately decided given my age and the work everyone in my family does (healthcare with direct patient care), that it was the lesser of two evils.
I don’t think anyone should be forced to get the vax, though possibly I am OK with requiring it of healthcare works - but I could be persuaded on that one; seems heavy handed to me.
Perfectly willing to read credible information of problems the vax is causing - and I don’t doubt there are some - in fact I would welcome some actual ‘real’ debate on the issue, especially if the country starts going to down the road of mandates.
But completely silly reports, like those posted by the OP, with zero evidence and *wild* extrapolation of numbers in order to try and make a point, makes people like me - those with an open mind and who *could* be convinced either way - that perhaps the anti-vax crowd is constantly reporting just plain silly information, makes you think they do that because they can’t find any real information to backup their case.
SO for me, it’s no different than people making up hate crimes and report them to the police to prove how much hate crimes there are - why would the facts or hatecrimes need to be made up, if there are so many real facts/real hatecrimes to use instead?
So color me skeptical of outlandish claims like this.
Like I said, I got the vax, everyone should choose what is right for them and get it or not - but these constant fake reports don’t really help the debate, and I believe is actually making *more* people get the vax when they see how desperate the anti-vax crowd has become that they need to make things up to prove some point.
Get your papers in order, hide under your bed and always obey your betters.
We may need FRee Republic and Vaccine republic.
No one is ruining FR.
