I say: “If you are healthy, why take a chance of illness from possible unknown side-effects of vaccines - old and new?”
I used to get the annual flu shots. But since CDC says the shots “flu vaccination reduces the risk of flu illness by between 40% and 60% among the overall population”, is that worth the risk of getting the vaccine, after realizing its design is based on theories, guesses, and not knowing the probability of severe side effects?
I stopped getting the annual flu shot over 20 years ago; I got the flu only once in 68 years. And I got the shot that year.
gleeaikin :" ..More and large research studies need to be done on exactly how, and how much these vaccines affect the various portions of our immune system.
We must demand such studies be started immediately.
No more Fauci type pandering to the big drug companies and their bottom line "
" Several valuable studies, often in countries not controlled by our big money drug companies have proven that simple low cost items like zinc, Vitamins D4 and C,
as well as low cost widely used medicines like HCQ and Ivermectin when used together
can greatly improve the likelihood of surviving Covid and generally enhancing our immune system strength to fight not only Covid but other ills like Cancer and Diabetes."
(From the article):”Despite health authorities' continued push for people to stay up to date on boosters, public interest appears to be waning. A recent study reveals why...
”Most Americans eligible for a COVID-19 bivalent booster chose not to get it, and researchers say they now know why.
Previous research found that over 80 percent of Americans eligible for the booster decided against it...”
Those who shied away from the shot reported doing so for five main reasons.
Nearly 40 percent said they had already been infected with the COVID-19 virus.
Over 30 percent were concerned about vaccine side effects,
and 28.6 percent felt the bivalent booster would not provide more protection than the doses they had already received.
About 23 percent were either concerned about vaccine safety or believed the extra dose would not protect against a COVID-19 infection.
Twelve percent said they didn't think the booster would protect them against severe disease or death. “
(My Opinion) : "You can fool some of the people some of the time .. "
The naturally occurring human immune system isn't worth tinkering with, .. especially when you don't know the long-term consequence.
You have the legal (Nuremberg Code) and god-given rite to be fully informed, prior to taking any biologic injection
I’ve been anti-vax (ALL vaxes) since I was 22. I see no reason to change. Last vax I had was at age 10 when my family was going to stay in another country for a year. I’ve studied them up years ago and that merely cemented my objection to them. ALL of them.
