Those of us who are anti vax

Wishing harm on and hoping that the worst of the vaccination side effects take effect in those that have taken the vaccines just so you can be proven right, is just as bad as the vaxxers who think you shouldn't be afforded health care if you refuse to be vaccinated.

Never lose your humanity.

[b]Personally[/b], I don’t wish harm on [b]anyone[/b]. Last month I buried a family member who somehow was less afraid of the Covid virus than the vaccine. Since he refused to be vaccinated, guess which one killed him ? 😞

But yeah, it’s about choice. I’m a [b]retiree[/b], so I can choose to avoid the unvaccinated or those who refuse to wear masks, etc. I’m not afraid of vaccines because I grew up in the wake of polio, and had classmates who had survived the disease. I had three friends in particular, in wheelchairs—none ultimately have lived to be my age. I’m grateful my parents had me vaccinated; polio is not something I would’ve wanted to deal with.

I don’t know how this pandemic is going to play out. I hope people will stop dying, stop getting sick. And that’s the difference between most of us and the so-called “anti-vaxxers”. It’s not a “freedom” issue but simply a “health” one.

@bijouxbroussard Its a health issue for everyone. The only reason why the issue of freedom is thrust into the matter is because those who are pro believe those who're anti ought to be coerced or forced into it.

I mean the current stance now is to threaten us with death by hunger and ostracization (if thats a word) since Covid isn't a big enough boogyman .

@SW-User Not really. The vaccines were sought with the hope of slowing the spread of the disease. That’s why they were fighting so hard last year to develop them. The idea was to develop an immunity that might protect those who [b]can’t[/b] be vaccinated; small children, or those with severely compromised immune systems.

So, we’ll see.
