That's just it; I did that. And you, and others, keep finding fault with that, and lecturing me about it. It is the height of arrogance. You made your choice; I made mine. I don't bother you about yours; why do you bother me about mine?

@Unfettered ~ I asked in post #89 and was ignored, so I'll ask again.

When you decided you were not getting vaccinated, was there any consideration for the well-being of others in your decision?

I just don't know where you're going with this...

You may choose to do whatever tou want, i don't really care so long as you don't infect anyone else should you be unlucky enough to succumb to a stronger strain of the virus.

I'm not going anywhere, just providing some personal knowledge

I'm not lecturing anyone, your life is yours to so what you will, i don't care. Why are tou getting so uppity about it?

I have had, so far, 6 COVID vaccinations. As a person of some age (76 on April 1), the medical profession considers that to be appropriate for me, as at my age a COVID infection could have very serious consequences, and that doesn't sound like a lot of fun to me.

And when the medical professions deems it wise for me to have another, I will promptly go and get it.

Only 6?
Hah!
I have 8!

BTW, that's not 8 factorial.

And I know people who did get vaccinated and died. What's your point?
The vaccine still works. With the original strain it worked very well. But life, as you know, is the product of evolution and that is what happened. The virus evolved and was able to find a work around. The vaccine still gave some protection from getting it. And it provided even more protection from dying from it. This version of Covid attacks the old far more than anyone else so you are probably safe for a while. But if a better vaccine is not found it may kill you some day. The unvaccinated die at a far higher rate than the vaccinated. It is not perfect. Nothing rarely is.

I didn't receive the "abominable filth" vaccine. There are other options available by Pfizer, Moderna, etc.
He has of yet to say why it is "abominable filth". A lot of people are confused and think that there are fetal tissues in vaccines There are not. There are no tissues in the vaccines, but they are usually tested early on in fetal cell lines. Tested on does not mean that it contains any. In fact even the very anti abortion Catholic Church has no problem with the vaccines.

Boss and I each had Covid about 2 months ago, after 6 vaccinations, the last being in October. It was still nasty - sore throat, brain fog, and more. There is a fairly good chance I wouldn't be typing this today had it not been for the scientific process of finding vaccines.

It is barely believable that alphabetized people in 2024 can believe vaccines to be not worth the trouble.

What is next? Believing that cars are moved by supernatural forces?

I'm not sure. I never got an answer to my question though I asked twice.

Apologies. Many responses were in front of me all at once, including several from you. I confused your post with that of someone else, who had already found fault with my decision making. I didn't think I needed to be belted over and over.
