Well, all the people who ARE vaccinated are not in danger then, are they?
So by not getting vaccinated themselves, they are not endangering any other.
Your nanny statism is not very FR worthy.
It’s a bit anecdotal, but I can say from experience, (as many in here could attest), ahead of each deployment, we are given both targeted and placebo “immunizations”.
Without exception, I can say either at the company or battalion level, no one was noticeably sick before the “immunizations”. Also without exception, easily 35-70% percent of Soldiers and Marines were sick, within 2-4 days of immunizations. We have even seen people hospitalized far outside of traditional flu season. And these are people in very good shape, with very stimulated immune systems.
On one of our deployments, we had 3 plain loads of mostly sick soldiers deploying into our target jurisdiction.
Think about that... What could possibly happen from sending a bunch of sick personnel into a foreign population? In several cases, the people administering the injections, did not know all of what we were being given, but were emphatic that it was all correct. In a couple of other instances, when asked why we were being given shots which included things unknown at all where we were going, they would tell us not to be concerned, because the medical authority knew what was best.
While odd (as I am not a doctor), recently I was part of a conversation between a high level imunologist and three doctors.
All were on the same page, that a number of common virus derivatives were adapting, or “evolving” to be much stronger. In these cases, it was not just happening because of anti-biotics, but because of the strengthened antibodies.
The upshot of the conversation was the acceleration of virus adaptation, as they have in some instances already outpaced both our learning curve, and ability to respond.
