Then I'd better live it up - the clock is ticking.

Stop pretending you have friends, lol.
shareIf they're against this one vaccine, then they're not anti-vaxxers. That's like saying I despise prunes, so that means I'm anti-fruit.

Well said, Sam!
😎
hundreds of millions have gotten the vaccine, with only vanishingly small adverse effects which were felt immediately. the vaccine itself is digested in days.
what possible side-effect could there be which is undetected at this point ?
i just cannot fathon the reasoning here, or even if there is any ...
That's a separate argument of what I said. I said that being against one vaccine doesn't make someone an anti-vaxxer. That just makes them against one specific vaccine.

There's almost a dozen vaccines against COVID, you don't have to use necessarily one specific vac. Did they decide to use a different one instead? share
I don't know. But some people don't trust a vaccine that has been around less than a year because they're worried about long term affects.
shareCorona virus vaccines have been in development for a lot longer than “less than a year”.
Also the proven long term effects of death by Covid are more worrying to some people than scaremongering by conspiracy theorists.
Absolutely though people should be free to take their chances either way.
The SARS virus in 2003 helped develop the vaccine for Covid. They are both corona viruses. Researchers have been working on it for years. You must have heard of SARS.

If smallpox came back I would bet the same people who won't get the Covid vaccine would not get the smallpox vaccine. All vaccines are experimental when used initially.
They can believe what they want to believe. If they don't trust it or are even scared to use it or are terrified of needles, who am I to tell them otherwise?
shareMany of these anti-vaxxers seem to be more than willing to take other unproven drugs to treat Covid. There is a disconnect with common sense.
share
Or just maybe they object to an overbearing government FORCING them to get it.
😎
why object now ? shouldn't we have put our foot down against polio innoculations back in the 50s ? where have we been ?
share
Nobody FORCED us to get those back in the day. It was voluntary.
🤨
of course they did. immunizations were a requirement for enrollment in school.
share
No they weren't, Bubba.
🤨
you are full of shit.
