An article I read yesterday said that only about 1% of the US population has received the newest vaccine. There’s no demand since it doesn’t stop you from getting it, spreading it, being hospitalized or dying from Covid. You’d have to be Fetterman’d to believe it protects you.

That in itself is telling. People don't believe the shots help. A far cry from 2 years ago.

My local news radio this morning said that health professionals across the country are urging people to get it and to 'not believe the conspiracy theories out there! '

I could not believe my ears.

Even lying Biden said that he wanted pharmaceutical companies to come up with "a vaccine that works!!

How despicable and greedy can doctors be? We know it is for the money they get.

I have so little respect for them these days. I find them to simply be an unfortunate necessity, but a necessity I have little respect for. I have no tolerance for liars and thieves.

I’ve been fortunate that my primary care doctor has not pushed the vaccine. My pain management doc told me not to get it. She says that a lot of her patients are getting cancers. One of my good friends was told not to get it by her doctor but she did anyways in order to see her grandbabies in California. Before the shot she had Crohn’s disease and diverticulitis. After the shot she now has 7 autoimmune diseases. I couldn’t believe my ears when she said that. I don’t understand why anyone would jump at the chance to take a drug that hasn’t gone through years of testing. Nobody knows the long term effects. Where will be in 5 years? 10 years?

You are fortunate! Such doctors are rare.

Re: your vaccinated and ill friend, I think that fear trumped logic. Not to mention the 'safe and effective ' mantra. 🙄

The highest uptake of the last booster before the "new" jab, I read was only 11-17%. And the uptake of childhood vaccines is down - you can tell by all the commercials pushing parents to Get Your Children Vaccinated! Making progress.👏
