I am in Ky. and refused the Hep, flu, whooping cough and the damn pneumonia vac. The tvs were blaring flu shot and Hep shot because the government said we would probably croak if we didn’t get it. If the government tells me it is for your own good I will pass. Any of the older folks that I know that have taken the pneumonia vac have gotten sick as a result. I smoke too and all the lib “for your own good” crowd can kiss my posterior.
I was never a hippie though I am of that generation. In defense of my generation we did manage to convince young, perky women to burn their bras. As an old man now who mainly looks I think this to be our highest and hopefully most lasting achievement.
“am in Ky. and refused the Hep, flu, whooping cough and the damn pneumonia vac.”
I never took any if those and wouldn’t.
I never even heard of pneumonia vaccine.
