I've made a lot of decisions in my life, some good, some terrible, but refusing to get that covid jab is one of the best I ever made. I don't know why, the Lord must have blessed me with a little common sense at that particular time.
I was guilty, at first, of the fear-mongering going on. We had wipes in our cars, hand sanitizer everywhere, pockets, vehicles, all over the house. Our house was never that clean. When we pumped gas, had a wipe in my hand, though the lock down had us going very few places. Was at Kroger at 6am waiting for 7am open, just to get toilet paper, while we all were standing 6 feet apart, once the doors opened, we all crammed together through the door. haha The wife and I finally stepped back as we both remembered the AIDS scare where you can get it from toilet seats, drinking from someone else's glass, etc. As more and more reporting came out, we saw this was mainly effecting the elderly and people with health conditions.
So all through 2020, putting up with required mask, even going down to visit my Dad, they had a city/area law, no more than two people in a vehicle. The world was going crazy. Then came the vaccine, which we now know it was not a vaccine, The Shot or Jab. We were also memorized with the death counting numbers, we even lost a family member in a hospital at the end of 2020, before The Jab. He made it through the first bout but a week later had problems breathing so went into the hospital and never came out. No one could go see him, so zero contact with him.
Things just were not adding up, the wife and I were blessed in that my wife was on mandatory work from home from her company and I was able to limit my work so we both had very little contact with people. We watched pretty much all our family run to the Shot. Several had to for work. When we shared that we were not going to take the Jab right away, we were, of course, met with opposition. Seemed each family had their own rules, some stricter than others.
If it were not for this Forum and all those doing the research, who knows, we might of ended up with the Shot too. I am glad we hesitated and was in a position of less contact with people.
I don't blame people for getting the Jab, back then, in the beginning, I get it. BUT, when we saw the PUSH to get it, people would lose their jobs, get the Jab and get a free hamburger, the promotions, stupid craziness, HUGE light went off in both of our heads. WHY THE BIG PUSH. By that time we pretty much knew less than one percent was the mortality rate. Why push kids to get the Shot who was the least liking to die?
So the year of the Shot, 2021, at Christmas the wife and I got Covid-19. The wife, zero fever, not even as bad a sinus infections for her, for me 3 days of 102 temps, both of us experienced fatigue for about a week after. Did we have Covid-19 or just the flu? Well did I and the wife mild sinus? Don't know, no one were testing for the flu at that time. By then, we already knew the Shot was not stopping people from getting Covid, pretty much everyone we knew who got the Shot ended up with Covid, and not just once, actually one person we knew, got it 3 times and they had all the available shots.
We all now know Covid cured the Flu since it mysteriously went away during the Pandemic.
@bigredfish, we are very sorry for your loss. I wish my mother were still here too. I do share your anger for what was unleased on the world, whether intentional or not. Looks like Trump is stopping the funding gain-of-function research. But the continuing of mRNA use is really the present/future concern.
