Sounds like they mean well but it’s your life and your decision to make. They are more at risk than you are.

“I work at taking care of my health so I don’t get cancer in the first place. It’s not like a lottery. To a large extent, there are causes and effects that determine who gets it and who doesn’t”

I got breast cancer in 2014. Live a healthy life. No history of cancer in my family on either side. I blame it on a few years of incredible stress, and there’s a lot of data connecting stress to weakening the immune system.

I believe that the freak-out fear porn in the spring of 2020 wreaked havoc on people’s immune systems. It would be interesting to know if those who over reacted to the hype were those who eventually came down with Fauci Flu.

There is very credible data out there showing that a lot of cancers are caused by viruses, which would explain why many people taking the Ivermectin and HCQ are having interesting effects on tumors and cancer.

In my family, two of my cousins were diagnosed with juvenile diabetes after they both got a flu that attacked the pancreas. Both of them died from the disease. I fully intend to take IVR any time I am exposed to a flu virus or suspect COVID. Ive already been taking it prophylactically since last December.

“many people taking the Ivermectin and HCQ are having interesting effects on tumors”

I hadn’t heard that. Interesting. Will look into it for sure and do some research. Would prefer to not have another mastectomy. Thanks.

It’s mildly interesting that you apparently have a strong emotional interest in Ivermectin being entirely risk-free.

Naw. Since I’ve quit social media, it was made for FR, though it may get minor edits.

I’ll just drop it here & there from time to time.

Thanks much.

Tell them you’ll think about and consider it and will take what they say into account.

Try to run out the clock.

I’ve been married for over 32 years and that’s what I do with some issues my wife presents.

I tell her “Well, thanks for the info, I give it lots of thought.”

That way, you’re not lying, but you are stalling.

Man, what a tough situation. This entire thing has become a mess because of the lies. My oldest son DEMANDED that I and his mom get the jab. She did. She got sick almost immediately after with Covid. She was pretty sick. I got Covid 5 days after she got the jab. No vaccine for me. Wasn’t that sick. Both of us are fine now. I don’t know what to tell you - everyone from the medical profession to leadership everywhere lies. We can’t get the truth.

There are several around here who have had the vaccine and are superspreaders among their elderly friends and also have gotten COVID after the jab.

I do believe this is happening. The government does too, but they will NOT tell the truth.

I agree on stress messing with the immune system. Avoiding it is one of the strategies I use for staying healthy.

One of my sisters was sure her cancer came from medications her doctor prescribed for something. She asked her doctor about it. He pooh-poohed the idea of course. She then pulled out the warning message for the medication and showed him that that cancer was on the list of possible side effects. Not taking medications is another of my strategies for staying healthy. If I NEED a doctor, I'll go in and see one, but I've found I generally don't see a need for one.

I think that lying is the only answer. I’m serious.

Lying is not the answer. Living by what the Bible teaches even if one has to suffer is the answer.

Having had Covid (back around Easter), I will say this (I’m 62 and in fairly decent health)....for me, it was a 3-star flu. I’m not vaccinated, and this ran through a 10-day period of a manageable fever, some nausea, and a fair amount of bed-rest. After it ended, probably another 10 days of a cough, and low-energy, then I was back to normal. The low-energy business reminded me of having pneumonia as a kid (which I rated twice as bad as this Covid-stuff).

I tested positive for Covid. I don't give my age on here. Was far milder than what you describe.

If you take that shot, do it because you totally want it. Do not take it under pressure from family members , friends or government.

If you choose to take it, make sure you know exactly all the possible known and unknown side effects first.

Do not do this and feel sorry that you did it later.

You know, a lot of you on here have become my family. At least we can talk and discuss matters and not cut each other off on many occasions.

My opinion of doctors went from 100% favorable to 75% favorable after hip replacement surgery a couple years ago. Since WuFlu it’s down to 25%. I avoid whenever possible.

Just try to live the best way you can and see what happens.

My husband had 4 employees with covid a few months back, well, assuming the test is accurate which is a whole other issue. One had stomach issues (vomiting, diarrhea) the first week and respiratory issues started the second. The other three had headache, mild fever, sore throat and sniffles for 3-7 days. All in their thirties, no comorbidities, recovered fine.

A colleague of his had 6 with the same exact symptoms and none tested positive. So honestly, who knows anymore?
