To vax or not to vax - that is the Cult-of-Vid question!

We're Covid-vax decliners but each of us has different reasons.

We get *very* cold receptions from a bunch of our shared friends who are so pro-vax that it's offensive.

But most people are warmed to the idea of a person being able to legally make their own decision about whether or not to accept being vaxed for Covid and the 'you are the enemy' view is pretty much gone away.

I have long observed many times that vaccines do not live up to their billing. A warning was broadcast on the radio a number of years ago. Someone in the grocery store had measles so everyone should avoid the store - unless you had the measles as a kid and were thus immune. My mother in law spent her declining years in a dementia ward. Every year she would get the flu vaccine and every year she would get the flu as would her entire ward in the hospital.

I have a strong belief that the human body knows best how to fight off diseases without our artificial interventions and so I decided the new mRNA vaxes were not for me. Then the people started to get the vax and suffer the consequences. First one to get the vax got shingles. Then others got bells palsy and other neurological illnesses. My brother in law got his and died a few days later from blood clots. The neighbor got his and died in his sleep from cardiac arrest. A young man dropped dead from a heart attack walking across the parking lot. A young woman had her heart stop 3 times in the air ambulance. A middle aged man nearly died from blood clots in his bowel. All for what? A cold. I got delta and never missed a day's work. (I can work from home). Those who tried to encourage me to get the vax and got it themselves have missed work multiple times with covid. One fellow has had it 3 times and each time is worse than the time before.

in my immediate family 3 were vaxed and 3 were unvaxed. Everyone of us got covid. The three that were vaxed also got myocarditis or neuropathy or adenopathy. Fortunately none of the vax injuries in this group were fatal but they were severe enough that they all had to seek medical attention. None of them have fully recovered from the vax injuries.
@hippyjoe1955 I have long observed that certain people here cannot be trusted to be truthful. For example:



Honestly, dude, did you REALLY claim that children couldn't catch Covid??? OMG, you REALLY did!!!
