I don’t understand ANY of the angst around the vaccines.

Screw Biden
Screw Trump
Screw China
Screw any stupid radio host

The only opinion I consider is my PERSONAL Doctor who knows me, knows my health and understands how the vaccines were developed. I rely on their counsel. NO ONE else’s when it comes to my health.

Who would give a crap what a politician or radio host (whose job it is to stir controversy in order to get ratings) says about anything related to YOUR health?

I’m not a Doctor. But I trust MINE.

I am late 50’s very overweight and pre-diabetic with raging HBP.

I am in the process of losing weight and eating right to change my situation.

My doctor told me if I got covid there was a very great chance it would kill me and strongly advised I get the vaccine which I did.

I’m sure your doctor is just great, but anyone who has had a medical issue outside the realm of what is considered normal day-to-day treatment is well aware of just how dangerous it can be to blindly trust any doctor. I do know there are exceptions and I have met some, but it is truly staggering just how lazy-minded, ignorant, and arrogant many doctors can be.

So, if you have trouble understanding, it’s probably best to just say that we all have different experiences and use those to form our opinions.

I actually have zero angst about the vaccine. I’m simply never going to get it. I don’t need or want it. I’ve had Covid and a simple cost/benefit analysis says that having natural immunity plus taking into consideration my age and physical health, I can say that taking the vaccine offers no upside to me. That said, I do keep therapeutics around just in case. I like to have all my bases covered. Better safe than sorry. That’s where this guy probably went wrong.
