COV19, shots

[stevekozak]

I honestly and truthfully don't know what to believe anymore! Have heard that some folks who had both shots got covid, wtf?

How is a person supposed to make an informed decision?

I have many reasons to not get the jabs, but if nothing else, the following would inform my decision: The Government wants me to put something in my body. I have discovered over many decades of living, that The Government does NOT have my best interests at heart. I will not put things into my body that The Government wants me to.

No longer possible; 'information' is all over the place.
My way is to follow my gut/instincts.
That way, regardless of outcome, the decision was the right one for me.

First dose felt like I had COV19 again. But not as high a fever, tired and stayed in bed. But it was over quick. Had shot 1245. The next morning a little fuzzy but ok, by 1200 I was not well Spent rest of that day and next pretty much in bed 99 to 101.8 temps. It never effected my taste like having COV19 did. If any headache it was very mild.
0300 in the morning it was over back to normal. I Hope second follows same path. Get it the 11th. The 14th I have to load up bike and get to Murray KY. Failure is not an option.

Good luck. Seems to affect us older white folks more than Asians or younger folk

Hope everything works out fine.

Me? If someone says they jabbed me with that gene therapy treatment (it's not a vaccine), they can say they accomplished something as they look for BandAides and a splint or two.

The fatality numbers have been wildly overblown. From the beginning, the symptoms were exaggerated and the prognosis overhyped to the point that you have to wonder how many people got it and died from fear. I know of one case where that happened.

Why is the word, "ventilator" no longer the every fourth word mentioned on the news, anymore?

Oh, and why have we not seen people dropping dead on the sidewalks like in those Chinese videos? Remember those videos? You know, where the person taking a video just happened to be focused on a seemingly well person face-plants supposedly due to the effects of the virus?

They had been working with that gene therapy treatment for decades and all they managed to do was kill a whole lot of test animals. I'm supposed to believe they mastered it in months? No, I just don't believe it.

I might get the Vid. I might die from it. I'll die with my RNA still the way God designed it.

My grandpa is 98 and pretty damn decent health. We spoke last night and he brought it up, he doesn't quite know what to do. He was offered the shot a little while back and passed. I tried to offer what I have seen and heard both ways. I really wanted to tell him I recommend not taking it at his age but I am not that type of person. I'm personally afraid if he takes it it will kill him. I don't think I was much help but I think I told him a few things he probably hadn't heard.
Smitty, your experience is one I've shared with him. Good luck on the second shot, I hope your motorcycle trip goes off without a hiccup

I am old enough to remember the vaccine in the 1970's for the Swine Flu that EVERYBODY HAD TO GET OR YOU WILL DIE FROM THE SWINE FLU!!!!!11!!!!1 Far more people got sick and died from the vaccine than the Swine Flu.

I think I'll sit this one out.

Except for my head thingy, that was triggered by injury 2yrs ago, I've always been healthy, no docs for me. When I turned 60 5yrs ago, I decided to go to a doctor for a full exam, scans, blood work, etc., incase there was something that could sneak up in my old age...especially since I smoke, drink & carry extra 20lbs, lol. He asked me after results were in how it was that not only were my numbers within each range, but they were on the good end of each range. I told him it was from 40 years of no doctors.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I am convinced whiskey keeps my blood clean and my mind right!!

I'm confused, if you had covid does your body not build anti-bodies to it? Why the need for the vax?

Yes and no. They have no idea how long the protection last. For me it came down to Mother in law. I know she is 90 but we would like to keep her around awhile yet. Amazing person. I have not heard of anyone getting COV19 around here in some time.
Church goes on as always few wear a mask. We opened our local public school has not been a problem . Our Church school has not had to close yet. Breaking the law but Taverns out side of town told governor to pound sand and have been open.
Sheriff went to one with a team some time back decide bad idea and left. Nothing was ever said.

Friend of mine took the vaccine. It almost killed her. She would up in the er and almost stroked out. She has zero health or heart issues. She’s in excellent condition. No thanks.

My wife is heavily researched into vaccines and we won’t take it. And yes she is in the medical field. She knows her shit.
