My lungs are so damaged, with scars, RA nodules, I would not survive a round with COVID. I know thousands of people in my RA group on FB. We have all discussed the vaccine, talked with our doctors, and every single person in our group, all of us immuno compromised, were told to get it by our doctors, and all of us did. Again, not a single death, and a sore arm at the worst.
again Angela, I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you and I am truly sorry that you have suffered so very much.
I do not believe COVID deaths were exaggerated. A lady I know in the US just posted her husband died of COVID. I know so many people who have died of it.
well. they have been exaggerated but as with everything else, we all decide what we will believe. It seems you have done what is best for you and I can understand that. I am doing the same and again, I have had the covid discussion with my doctor.
As for lies, it is all vacuous propaganda from the antivaxers. The sources are actually twisted from the original sources. So many more people died of COVID than the vaccine. 610K died of COVID, 7K have died from vaccines in the US. That is so many more dying of the disease than the vaccine. And that was a huge lie told by the OP. Now, I do not believe he intentionally lied. He is not that kind of person. But he was given wrong information, which he he passed on and all the anti-vaxers want to believe, so they believed a lie.
to be sure, there is most likely propaganda on both sides. with the government we currently have down here, you can catch them in lies every day...you don't even have to question others...you hear it with your own ears. Biden is an abject liar...always has been. you might have heard (I am sure you have) that the right is silenced by the left news media and fb is as bad as a commie shill. just yesterday I saw a fb banner over a post from someone I know and they actually had made a true statement but fb said the fact checkers said it was not true. but it was. anyway, that can be debated all day long I guess
The worst lie was people proclaiming anyone who got vaxed would lose their salvation. No, this vaccine is NOT the Mark of the beast, no, all the millions of Christians who got COVID vaccines did not lose their salvation. Dispensationalism itself is a big part of this problem. People interpreting symbols literally, take wild jumps from what is in the Bible, creating false doctrine! More lies.
well that is nonsense and fear motivated. it's always the end of the world for some and the amount of error online spouting from all the fake prophets encourages those so inclined to believe such things.
I don't like the left wing, woke people anymore than anyone else. I think Trudeau and Biden are the worst things to happen to our nations. They are globalists trying to make our countries Communist. In Canada it is point blank obvious. Mainstream conservatives have poor choices for leaders.
But, just because I am against all these left wingers destroying society, like most of the people in this forum, I use my brain, do my own research, and I believe everyone should take the vaccines, because it is the right choice to make.
well, we differ here regarding everyone taking the vaccine...again, it is NOT approved...it is experimental. if the darn thing was an actual vaccine, I might have taken it, but I have already had a bad reaction and 4 years later, still have some side effects and after many blood tests and seeing allergists and dermatologists, they find nothing wrong with me, but cannot explain why I was getting a very itchy rash...kind of like hives but was not hives.
I do my own research as well and have not come to the same conclusion as you. I certainly agree that Trudeau and Biden are matching bookends of disaster. my last patriotic act in Canada was to vote for Harper ... when T ran. I thought Harper was a class act when he walked away. he was too good for the country and people resented his moderate way of spending and dealing with the nation. what a world
I don't think I have much time left to live. I'm weaker than I have ever been. If I caught COVID, my lungs and heart would not survive it. That's not co-morbid, either. I will continue to live until God calls me home. If I catch COVID, it would be certain death, because of COVID. My compromised lungs limp along, and have for over 30 years. But if I died when I got COVID, that would be the cause.
hugs.
we are all on borrowed time down here but most of us don't think about it
As far as it not being a vaccine, it sure has helped bring down the cases in western Canada. A not-a-vaccine would not have helped. Further, those vaccines have been worked on, studied and tested for over 10 years now! It was slow research in case SARS ever came back. COVID is a variation of SARS, which is why the vaccine was developed so quickly.
well this is getting long...but....it really is not a vaccine. research has been ongoing for 10 years into rDNA technology vaccinations but they were not yet ready to put it on the market. with the invention (thank you China) of Covid 19, and Trumps allowing for research to become useable, rather than the definitive and vigorous testing actual vaccines have, we have the resulting injection which I call it, because it is not a vaccine.
it actually being used ONLY under emergency authorization and just that alone should make people cringe when someone mentions mandate. now, they are talking boosters because the original injection does NOT have the effectiveness originally thought
Further, the pharma giants are immune from lawsuits and that was part of the deal to get the drug out there and into people. every single one of these companies have had lawsuits in the past due to side effects, deaths and illness that they 'forgot' ie HID, when whatever it was they were touting started to effect people who trusted that what they were taking was a solid product. Yes, you can find all of this online.
People need to not be scared into believing there is a world wide conspiracy to kill & maim anyone taking the COVID vaccines. The vaccine should be voluntary, and people should get it. Instead we are stuck with a ubiquitous virus, that is going to haunt us for years to come, because propagandists have been telling lies and scaring people to not get the shots. And there will be people who can't take it for medical reasons. Maybe they are allergic to something in the vaccine medium or they have a medical condition that will stop a small number of people from having the vaccine. But that will be a tiny amount compared to the 95% who can have it, providing herd immunity for those who cannot medically get the vaccine.
its really not going to good at this moment with the Delta variant. which of course has led to the talk of booster everyone. again.
the scare tactics to take the vaccine are perhaps just as lurid and since gov wants everyone to take the vaccine saying it is the answer...when quite a few different therapeutics exist.... does make a person question why promote vaccines when you can help yourself without it. I do agree the injection should be VOLUNTARY. we have so much kwrap going on down here, a person has a smorgasbord from which to choose
one more thing though....many of the illegals are covid carriers (along with other diseases North America has not bothered with in many years)....and we are supposed to think any resurgence is all the fault of those who choose not to have the injection
I guess that is what you get when you have pathological liars throughout the government and the granddaddy of the Biden crime family sitting in the WH
please excuse sp mistakes or bad grammar.
