We will see who lives. All of the best!
The vaccine developers were actually concerned about this, which is why they studied it, which is why they know that so far there has been zero indication of disease enhancement due to pathogenic priming in Covid 19.
Truth matters. Reality is real. Making stuff up is bad. Lying about it is bad.19 -

yes that is true.
But also some substances sting more than others, regardless of technique of giver.
and sometimes you just hit a sensitive spot and sometimes you dont - Ive given exactly the same things to the same person using the same technique - and sometimes it just stings more than others.

Those aren't bad odds.
Bad odds? Are you kidding me? I'll entertain your 99.98% survival rate. Out of the survival rate, we still don't know the long term impact of COVID-19. My coworker that "survived" is basically disabled at the moment. Brain swelling, heart swelling, she still has trouble breathing. She MIGHT be able to come back to work in a few weeks with restrictions if the new glasses she got for the double/blurry/prism vision helps and she's not exhausted all the time.
But yes, keep spouting that 99.98% "survive".
Same thing happens to many people from contracting respiratory illnesses EVERY year.
Long term health effects are actually very common. Propaganda parroting is something you are good at.
I have never the same since getting pneumonia over a decade ago for one. I know many more.
Global Frontline Nurses, look em up.
am not following what point you are making.
Far less people die of pneumonia - but we do have a vaccine for it and , depending what country you are in, it is funded for at risk people.
It isnt some sort of act about Covid whilst ignoring pneumonia scenario
and of course pre Covid, if you have any sort of respiratory infection you should avoid being near other people - that is nothing new, just the word for it 'social distancing' is

I think this is true. I get the flu shot every year and some I barely even feel while others are much more painful (still relatively low on the pain scale, but not at all pleasant). Same with blood donation and other types of needle sticks. Some people just seem much more skilled than others.3 -

This is why I love the “I don’t live my life in fear...” defense. Half the time any “evidence” is provided it is a BS Facebook fear mongering meme! You’d think these vaccines were made by meth heads in a van behind a planned parenthood where they are collecting aborted babies that are just tossed in a dumpster in the alleyway. They were already cooking with half the product needed and had a lab setup. Oh, they also got microchips from the government to include in each vaccine! Watch out!!!
These people wreak of fear!!! 😒16 -

My husband has had his first dose for almost a month now. He hasn't had any communication from the mothership nor is my 5G signal boosted at home. He also didn't turn into a zombie. I really thought something cool would happen.12 -

Dang! Sorry about your luck! You’re scheduled for yours soon... maybe your dose will come with signal boost or new hunger for brains! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you! Keep an eye out over the next couple months, with no long term studies it could take up to 6 months for either of you to sprout a new baby arm at injection site! Keep us posted!3 -

At this point, I expect to be catapulted directly into the Matrix universe as soon as I get my vaccine, anything else will be a huge disappointment.7 -

Prepare yourself for the disappointment... My wife and daughter have been vaccinated for 2 months now (they both work in a hospital so were first on the list) and I got my first dose last week and none of us have experienced anything from the vaccines - heck, my arm was sorer from the flu jab last fall than from this one.
I had kinda hoped for an extra arm or eye (or heck, even a boost in the WIFI signal would have been nice), but nothing.7 -

That's just what they want you to think!11 -
Well thanks for the input everyone! It’s settled... I’m not getting vaccinated! As a mother of 3 little ones, I was only doing it in hopes I’d grow an additional set of arms! Now that you have all enlightened me to your (and family members, friends, and acquaintances) lack of such side effects, I am no longer interested. I’m so tired and outnumbered, I’ll just surrender and put my fate in the hands of covid!

yeah I had a welt/lump for a week with the flu shot last fall, but the years before that I had nothing. I did not feel them much. Now the shingles vaccine literally BURNED going in both times so I knew that one was a doozy no matter who did it.
The first Pfizer stick I got was absolutely painless. I did have a sore arm from the actual dose I think for a few days but other than that the stick was easy. I expect the second will be also.
I get stuck annually for blood and sometimes it's just random but I have learned that when they don't hit it right NOT to let them dig around but tell them just to get a new needle and stick again.
I also have given sticks to my cats in the past for fluids and you it's definitely easier on them with very sharp needles like Tesuma (sp) and thinner walled ones. There is a whole industry behind needles... LOL.0 -

That's just because the government hasn't activated the chips yet. Wait for it.
My husband got Moderna and I got Pfizer, so there's going to be REAL trouble when our chips are activated.*

Since I got the microchip with my COVID vaccination I've been able to cancel my Strava subscription and rely on "Big Brother" tracking my bike rides instead.
Bill Gates is apparently fascinated by my average speed and mileage data.

So, guys, I signed up for that CDC v-safe thing to track any side effects...
The day after I got the vaccine, I had not yet received a text from them to complete the survey. I said OUT LOUD to my husband..."It's 5:30 already...is the CDC going to send me this thing?"
LITERALLY, 30 seconds later, my phone dinged with the text message from them.
MAYBE MY CHIP IS ALREADY ACTIVATED!!20 -

Global Frontline Nurses, look em up.
I have looked them up, starting back when a social associate of mine started posting pandemic/vaccine articles and memes on Facebook that differed from my views I generally like to look into things that counter my world-view, so that I'm reconsidering whether my view is incorrect. It quickly became obvious that "Global Frontline Nurses" (the organization) was a small group of conspiracy theorists who happen to be nurses (some of whom have since been fired by their employers, quite probably for reasons related to their activities related to this organization, given the timing).
They (and some supporters) do claim to be speaking out for thousands of other nurses who know "the truth", but are afraid to speak up.
At the same time, many individual nurses (and nurses/doctors/epidemiologists I know personally, so can judge their integrity) have said completely opposite things, and mainstream nursing organizations (representing actual thousands of nurses) and nursing colleges (representing extra-knowledgeable academics/researchers in the profession), are also saying things completely at odds with "Global Frontline Nurses" pronouncements.
Admittedly, I've now stopped looking into things that the person I mention posts, because time after time, there were posts that exhibited a bad grasp of statistics via things like misunderstanding and misrepresenting how percentages work, a bad grasp of science via things like arguing that flu virus research of all sorts always and inherently could be applied to Coronaviruses, and worse, sillier stuff that I won't even discuss here. She's wasted my time, time after time. Yes, if she ever says anything accurate, I'll miss out . . . but given the history, I'll take that risk.
She believes the vaccine I got contains a microchip, and that it may "take away specific emotions". I'll be getting the 2nd dose on Thursday.14
