I had side effects from the over-65 pneumonia shot.

Vision problems for 18 months.

Balance problems that still remain...although less severe.

Beware! Any over-65 vaccines are 2-3 times stronger than the regular shots.

Not only shots but anesthesia, way too strong for older people. I personally know of friends and family messed up by anesthesia.

I was tired for a week after anesthesia from a colonoscopy. You are correct.

My MIL has been dealing with balance issues! I’m going to ask her if she received this. She got 2 C shots and now thinks they are problematic, she asked me about the rsv because her Dr recommend it. 🙄

Let me know what she said.

The shot was the only thing that changed in my life. No new meds...

My good friends, 68 and 69, Requested the Stronger Flu Shot because they are older! I did not know that was even a thing. OmG. What on earth?

The person who is administering the shots won't warn people how much stronger the shots are for older people.

wow. Talk about Daily Signal not doing the research or being captured or both.

BTW, Daily Signal is no longer associated with Heritage Foundation. See their "Our History" section:

"Our roots date to 2008 when The Heritage Foundation first introduced the Morning Bell email newsletter and The Foundry blog. Upon launching The Daily Signal on June 3, 2014, we expanded our reach to serve millions of Americans who seek a truthful source of news and commentary about the political and policy issues facing America.

"Today, The Daily Signal is an independent organization—legally separate from Heritage—with its own board of directors and leadership team. Our affiliate, The Daily Signal Institute, is financially supported through donations from our audience and generous grants from philanthropic organizations committed to quality journalism.."

Didn’t any reference to Heritage Foundation in this article. please enlighten me if I missed that reference. The Daily Signal is not affiliated with or directed by Heritage. Your comment is quite an effective smear on the conservative think tank. Were you aware the Daily Signal editorial staff is not connected to Heritage and may have been captured by Soros money?.

It was founded by Heritage, I just learned it became independent this past June. That's the first I heard about their separating. I've subscribed to it for years when it was Heritage.

My opinion only, but I think we should reserve “jabs” for the Covid shots since we cannot and should not refer to them as vaccines. IMHO, there is zero ground to compare mRNA shots to real vaccines where the benefit may actually outweigh the risk.

That said, I’m not lining up anytime soon, but for those with neurologic diseases (ineffective cough) or lung disease, pneumococcal vaccines should remain an option.

It depends on the risk / benefit assessment. How effective are the different shots? (There are four types.) What possible adverse effects can occur? You seem much more willing than I am to accept allopathic corporate recommendations in an era of blatant profit-driven "care."

Of course, risk/benefit should always be the bottom line. In the inevitable swing to the other extreme, brought on by the C horrors, we need to remind ourselves to be vigilant, but to not throw the baby out with the bath water. Recently lost two cousins to breast cancer, both diagnosed in the surgically curable stage, but elected zero treatment. (That was their right, of course.)

That's how immense the power of Pfizer's money is. It's everywhere.

Pfizer must be completely ended as a company, its corporate charter annulled and all of its shareholders bankrupted.
