Thanks for chapter 1 of Turtles. I sent the book to my niece, who is battling her husband’s family on not vaccinating her precious baby girl.

Like you, I had the childhood shots but they were few (I’m 66). I had a couple tetanus shots in my teens as I had horses. I was made to get a rubella shot to get a marriage license (?!). Fast forward to 2020, I refused the C19 jabs but did get the shingles shots.

Bottom line, I was never anti-vax until now. Will never get vaxxed again, nor will my indoor cats! Silver lining of the plandemic is how many are now proud anti-vaxxers!

It’s true isn’t it? 🙌

The plandemic shined a bright light on what kinds of shenanigans they’ve been doing all along. I was sound asleep most of my life 😴 concerning vaxxes. I thought the anti childhood vaxxers were a bit on the extreme side, HOWEVER I never felt bad for their choice not to vax. It was their right. Now I’m very in tune and will proudly defend our right to decline every vax they try to shove down our throats from here on out including and especially kids. 💪🏻

Wow--you speak for me in every one of your words.

This Coffee and Covid space is pretty amazing.

You echo my life pretty closely--but rubella was no requirement in 1972--had not heard of that until your post. We had to show proof of no venereal disease (don't remember which one)

Thinking about this again--what on earth does a rubella shot have to do with marriage license? Crazy.
