Dear Sister Angela, may i encourage you to seek out the doctors, scientists and those who are walking in truth because they still have a conscience.
We are living in the most deceptive times in world history - never before such collaborative deception - never before.
Only one time was there such great evil as we now see us in = the days of Noah.
Anti vaxxers on the internet? That's your idea of walking in the truth?
Give me many, large scale double blind, peer reviewed studies, and that is what I choose, every time! Anyone that picks anecdotal reports, which could easily be Placebo Effect, is not a scientist at all.
I am seriously ill, plus on multiple Autoimmine suppressors. It's that, or not be able to get out of bed, organs being attacked & pain and deformities. I need real science, not antivax outright lies, wishful thinking, or a wing & a prayer.
I made my peace 20 years ago about being on these meds, and have never regretted it. The 4 years before I was diagnosed and The meds and the med failures I have had, convince me I need meds to function.
I have to be very careful about even catching a cold. And that started 10 years before RA, when my 4th pregnancy triggered allergies & asthma. ( Good news is, after 30 years I am mostly over allergies and asthma!) so long before I went on these very strong meds.
Many people might want to play around without vaccines. That is their choice. I know too many people who have died of COVID, including a seminary professor. One fellow student got COVID along with his wife and children. The wife and children got mild cases, recovered quickly. He, young and healthy in his 30's, ended up in the ICU. He was going to be put on a vent, and he cried out to God. No one was in his hospital room, but he felt a warm hand on. his back. The warm feeling spread all over his body. In a few hours, he was breathing better. The doctors held the vent. He continued to improve, I know God healed him. He was Baptist, not a big proponent of healing. But even the doctors called it a miracle.
I know this young man is called to do much for God. He is a missionary in Mexico to a tribe of natives, who don't even speak Spanish, they are so remote. His desire is to go back, when he is better. God did choose him to be healed.
I know God can heal, but I am not going to tempt God. The more I follow health recommendations, the better I feel. Besides the fact that having no respiratory infections because of my carbon filtered mask has improved my lungs so much. That's my miracle. God instructed me to obey the laws of my country. I am against vaccine mandates, but we technically don't have them in Canada, nor should we. Hopefully enough people have volunteered for the vax, the virus numbers will decrease.
Please learn about science. It does not consist of lone wolf doctors and scientists putting out false evidence to confirm your opinion. It consists of large scale trials that are repeatable & verifiable. There is a whole field of science and math, called statistics. It is very rigorous. It helps uncover biases, and determine which things work. (But never 100%, because we are all unique human beings!)
Take a course in the scientific method. I have, and it works. I will never trust antivaxers. I know too much about science & have referenced the false claims of antivaxers, and found them to be misinformation at best, an outright lies or hoaxes at worst!
