I received one of the first series of Hepatitis B Vaccinations when I was practicing medicine in Alaska during the mid-1980’s. Hep B is endemic in Alaska. About 2015 I had moved to Idaho and my antibody level was tested when applying for a new job. I did not have any antibodies. I had ANOTHER series of 3 injections (initial 30 days, and 6 months). I was tested afterwards and did not have any antibodies. In the medical parlance, I did not “sero-convert”. I have not allowed a 3rd series and was told that I “didn’t really need it.” Of course, that is when medicine still believed in science... IOW, diminishing antibody levels are not unique to the Covid vaccine. I have had two injections of the Pfizer vaccine. I’m done.

I’ve had the latest shingles vax (SHINGRIX) the 2nd shot is not a booster..its just a series of 2 shots ONE month apart. Please see below from the medicine.net website:

“The effects of the Shingrix vaccine last for at least four years in most people and may last even longer in some. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), you do not need a booster dose after getting the two doses of Shingrix.”

BTW after getting shingles prior to getting the vaccine I would recommend Shingrix vaccine to anyone. It is 97% effective for 4 years...I wouldn’t wish shingles on anyone. Took me from around thanksgiving to the next February to shake it completely.....bad juju.

I personally know of 2 kids it messed up, like $15K in Hospital scans later we can’t explain why your Athletic 19 year old SMU honor student can’t form words anymore, but thank god she got her vaccine two days ago.

Don’t plan on the media contacting you about this.

Today hit a milestone: More people I personally know have been Hospitalized for bad reactions to the vaccine than people I personally know that were hospitalized for Covid.

The vaccine requirement for healthy kids is borderline criminal.

Dumbest “pandemic” ever.

My mother and father took the first Moderna vaccine shot about six weeks ago. Within a week my mother went from a very active person in her mid 80s to an invalid unable to make it from the bed to the bathroom. She has progressively gotten worse to the point that she now looks like a little death camp survivor. We and her doctors expect her to die soon. It wasn’t an allergic reaction. So your explanation fails miserably, but I am sure you can come up with something better to push these experimental vaccines on those of us who are skeptical.

I spent years working as a Hazmat Officer in charge of a Hazmat team. It was my responsibility to make risk assessments for bio and chemical hazards. I probably have had ten times as many vaccinations as most people. It is amazing to me how many of my former subordinates have refused to take these vaccines at the risk of losing their positions. The risk involved in taking an experimental vaccine should be left up to the individual and their doctor not the all knowing government, big tech and the corporate media.

I worked as a Hazmat Officer for ten years in charge of a big city Hazmat Team. I have had ten times as many vaccines as most people in my life and never had any complications and very few times when even my arm got sore. A week after my mother got the first Moderna shot she went from very active and going to the YMCA every day to an invalid who can’t make it from her bed to the bathroom without assistance. She has lost so much weight that she looks like a little death camp survivor and she cries and says that she is in so much pain that she just wants to die. These shots are not safe for everyone, and in many cases are most likely much worse for some individuals than getting Covid itself.

A friend of mine passed last week from Covid. He was 77 and he had the jab.

I just had a friend die 24 hours after getting the vaccine. A 52 year old male with no health issues. His death certificate says he died of cardiac arrest, which is the typical “Heart Stopped” report when no other condition can be found. There will be no VAERS report. He is not the first to die suddenly after the jab without a VAERS report.

Too late for me. Got my 2nd shot monday and let me tell you, it definitely effed me up. My legs feel weak as hell and I’m out of breath going up just a flight of stairs. Oh yeah and another thing: My right eye has a “flash blindness” that won’t go away. You know when someone shines something bright in your eye like a flash bulb and it makes your eyes see white? That’s what I’m getting on the bottom of my right eye. I have no idea if this is all from the vaccine but I didn’t have these crazy issues before.

2 family members got the shingles after the Pfizer shot within a week. Looked it up and there are articles that state it’s a possible side effect. Another family friend reacted horribly to the second moderne shot. I’ve seen countless posts of side effects that last a couple of days, but the above are the worst outside of non family and friends that I’ve heard.

It is irresponsible to vaccinate children who do not die from the disease and very rarely spread it.

I took the shot because I live with an at risk person. It was a mistake. I have had autoimmune issues since. Mostly dermatitis and arthritis that started almost immediately and are both still bothering me 2 months later.

I feel like the shot took years off my life.

I can tell you this: My mother is dead, soon after her 2nd Pfizer dose. Cause of death: a stroke, caused by a blood clot in the back of her brain. We have a very large extended family. This is the first stroke I’ve heard of within my family. Take it fwiw, but I know it was from the jab.

“I don’t know anyone who got sick from a vaccine jab…either 1st or 2nd.”

I know a bunch. One of the guys I work with went from a strong supporter to a “I will never take another flu shot ever” because he got so sick.

No question in my mind - killed my aunt.

A friend’s husband has that autoimmune skin problem which developed right after the shot.

Another person I know has convulsions.

I’ve been thrown out of all my social/interest groups due to unvaxx status. Meanwhile the only people I know who have covid now, have been vaccinated.

My right eye has a “flash blindness” that won’t go away.

Coincidentaly I had my second Moderna 6 months ago. Monday I had the flash effect followed by blurred vision and by dizzyness. Put me in the ER as I thought I had had a stroke. Everything checked out fine. Cannot wait for the bill though.

On release, I was given a Rx for Invermectin due to time in ER.

I’ve known a few who took a couple days to feel normal. I took a few hours but it wasn’t bad. I know a twenty year old who was sick after shot one. Most of the ones I knew who were sick after got J&J.

Tetanus - booster every 10 years, 5 in some circumstances. Shingles requires two doses 6 months apart. Hepatitis B is a series of 3 shots.

I work as a defense contractor.

The Moderna second shot made me sick enough to lose three days of work.

It was one day, in each of the three weeks after.
