Why I'm Not Vaccinated
Newsweek ^ | 11/15/21 | Lisa Boothe

Posted on 11/16/2021 2:02:19 PM PST by george76

I am not vaccinated. In a sane society, a personal decision like this would not warrant a column, or even an explanation. But we do not live in a sane society. As a healthy 36-year-old woman, COVID-19 does not pose a statistically meaningful threat to my life. I have a 99.97 percent chance of survival... when there is an element of risk from the vaccines

...

Biden White House recently broke its previous promise and issued federal mandates

...

what exactly is the point of mandating vaccines that have .. failed to stop the spread? ... the vaccinated are also still spreading COVID.. And why is natural immunity being completely ignored and denied any relevance whatsoever when over 100 research studies have affirmed its effectiveness? .

...

an outbreak that began on July 3 in Provincetown, Massachusetts, involving 469 cases. Seventy-five percent of the cases in that outbreak occurred in fully vaccinated people, and there was no significant difference found in viral loads between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. .. Lancet Infectious Diseases journal came to a similar conclusion, finding that vaccinated people are just as likely to spread the Delta variant as unvaccinated

...

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson .. the vaccine "doesn't protect you against catching the disease and it doesn't protect you against passing it on."

..

Americans have also witnessed an ever-growing list of high-profile fully vaccinated people who have contracted COVID—... Jen Psaki being one of them. In the Senate alone, fully vaccinated Senators Lindsey Graham, John Hickenlooper, Angus King and Roger Wicker all have contracted COVID. .. breakthrough cases.

...

Vaccine mandates do not make sense. But most importantly, they are immoral. The government does not own us. I reject mandates because I believe in freedom.

1. I don’t get the flu.
2. Last time I had a flu shot, I got it.
3. I did NOT like the FLU!
4. When I got the flu shot, I had to sign a release holding NO one responsible for any problems with it.
5. ERGO - I sure as heck ain’t gonna get no Corona Virus 19 shot!
6. If I kill you because of my lack of concern for your safety and health, then YOU should have protected YOURSELF better!!!

If the covid shot were advertised like the ‘medicines’ are after the evening news...

we’d all need glasses to read all the fine print!

I might have to handcuff her to the headboard for her own protection.

TV ditz.

You'd likely never get any nest. I mean rest.

Here's why:


"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."
--Mark Twain


And, after they finally realize they've been fooled; it sure as heck is VERY hard for them to ADMIT IT!

I don’t get flu shots either, and I haven’t had the flu since 1986.

Some pro vaxx types have become brainwashed cultists.

Their beliefs are non-falsifiable by any evidence or other information, and anyone who does not agree with them 100% is evil.

They need to be professionally deprogrammed, just like cult members.

Otherwise they are mentally gone for good.
