Covid-19 vacs

Who isn't tired with the Covid topic...

I do feel like getting the vaccine helps to some degree as far as possibly not getting it to getting a mild case of Covid. And yes, I know there still has been a few Covid deaths after having been vaccinated, but there has been a lot more deaths with people not having received the vaccine. I work in the e.r. and I have seen a lot of patients coming in who have not been vaccinated that have tested positive for Covid, and with some of these patients, they are sent back home after being treated, but are told to quarantine themselves for fourteen days since the symptoms are mild. We do have a lot of patients that have been admitted from Covid that had refused to get vaccinated. My opinion on that is it's on them that they haven't been vaccinated.

Now, I don't believe in mandates, it should be left to the person to decide if they want the vaccine or not. As I stated, I do believe the vaccine helps to some degree.

I had my first Covid vaccine back on Dec. 22, 2020, and my second one on Jan. 18, 2021. Right now my place of work is now offering a vaccine booster, and it's not mandatory. Right now I'm leaning against getting the booster for myself. I have been very fortunate to not having gotten Covid all this time in the e.r., but I do believe there are other factors in me having not gotten it, such as my blood type (O positive), taking precautions with what we're suppose to do, and being in good physical health.

My girlfriend (type A positive blood) had been vaccinated twice, but she still ended up getting Covid back in early August. I di believe since she received her vaccines, the symptoms were mild, and she quickly bounced back from it. Her having some underlying health issues, Covid would have been much worse on her had she not received her shots.

Right now, Covid cases are starting to drop at my work place, and hopefully we can get past all of this.

If people don't get vaccinated and don't want it, that's their right. They shouldn't be made into a villain. But at the same time, people who choose to get the vaccine shouldn't be called sheeps for it. It should be free will, not force mandated!

Well written, I'm with you on all you said.

I'd take a booster anyday. Had my last mid june.
Think it wears of after say 6 months or so, but that's a guess ofcourse.

There was a time when people believed in the motto. "You eat a peck of dirt before you die", that was the natural immune system talking, now, too many pecks of dirt in waiting. professor
To believe that pharmacy wants healthy people is the same as believing that the military industry wants world peace
I don't care what pharma wants Dedo.
You say they did this on purpose to earn money?
(plus the advantage of reducing world populus.. ok).
My answer: let them earn, for now.
Atleast we now know what to look out for:
pandemics that come out of a laboratorium, or close to one.
After getting to work yesterday I was debating whether or not to get it. after about an hour in a half in, I decided to go ahead and get the booster (Moderna since my first two were back in Dec,. last year and in Jan.). My arm isn't sore at at considering my arm was sore a little both times with the first two. If anything, I figured it would help more than not. My decision, the way it should be. These shots should never be forced upon anyone (mandated).
Agreed. I've had the mild symptoms of Covid. I have not been tested.
I am waiting to see results and then decide. Even my phsician said wait. He advised me to get a flu shot which I have never had. Considering my overall good health, I'll wait, but I will never be shamed, or goaded into compliance with a mandate.

cool
