  1. 1. What is your status on the Covid - 19 vaccination?

    • I am fully vaccinated ( either 1 or 2 doses depending on vaccine )
    • I have received first shot of a two shot vaccine.
    • I have not been vaccinated, but plan to be when it is available for me.
    • I am not planning on being vaccinated.

My wife got it because she was basically forced to. Got pressured into it. All but one pharmacist did not want to, but they all did. The owner smoked his whole life and is petrified of covid. 
 

so one person abuses his body his whole life then expects others to take basically an experimental vaccine so he can feel safe. What a country.

 

I know an OB who would not have taken the vaccine unless forced to by his employer. My brother who is a doctor same story. My dentist brother same story.

 

it’s a political issue imo. I don’t understand how the left thinks and you don’t understand me. Nothing new. Wash rinse repeat 

LOL, I don't believe you. 

Planning is an exercise of power, and in a modern state much real power is suffused with boredom. The agents of planning are usually boring; the planning process is boring; the implementation of plans is always boring. In a democracy boredom works for bureaucracies and corporations as smell works for skunk. It keeps danger away. Power does not have to be exercised behind the scenes. It can be open. The audience is asleep. The modern world is forged amidst our inattention.

All those diseases affected children and working age people. Covid wipes out old and weak almost exclusively. Huge difference

Those diseases impacted the weakest of the children and working age people. Interesting... once we started vaxing for polio, smallpox and measles and such, our country started getting weaker and older and more foreign and more decadent and more socialist. If it weren't for those vax's, we wouldn't have all these weak, sick people hanging around and taking stuff from the strong, healthy white people. 

You know, you might be on to something here with the Anti-Vax thing.

He may well be lying, but it is plausible. There is still a sizable contingent (30%) of healthcare workers that are resistant to being vaccinated.

Oh, yes I'm aware of that. I just think he is making up anecdotal examples of those because he has a rhetorical interest in it.

Actually, in modification of my earlier comment about Bob, college educated soccer moms, and Alex Jones types, the rejection in the medical professional community is the real head scratcher.  

I just got Pfizer stabbed, 5 minutes to go on my mandatory observation.  CVS was full, I went to CA State / Stanislaus County website, scheduled first appointment two days out.  Only minor criticism, it took 30 minutes to get in, it turns out it didn't matter if you had an appointment.  First come, first served.  I'm Retired, so it doesn't matter, but if I was working or other time crunch, it would have been more fair to process appointments first.  However, the more vaccinated, the better, so best not to complain.

(Edit) 47 minutes after my appointment time, as I left, there was only two people in line. Anyone else thinking about getting there early to avoid lines they want to reconsider, it may be quicker to just pick a mid-morning appointment.

Got 2nd dose of Pfizer last Tuesday as a National Defense worker. Kicked my ass for 48 hours but I feel fine now. Everyone I know who’s getting it who’s under 60 years old is feeling the 2nd dose pretty hard. Everyone I know who’s over 60 has said it was nothing.

That’s consistent with my parents, both in their 80s. They had both doses of the Moderna vaccine, no side effects at all. I have my second dose coming up on April 5th.

I’m curious what the future MIL’s second shot will be like (she’s 75).  She started off with a shot of Moderna, 3 martinis after the drive home and then a bottle of red wine night cap.

Younger folks have stronger immune systems and therefore have a bigger reaction to the booster. I am dreading the second shot.

@Bob's take isn't unreasonable.  Pfizer disclosure: "the United States FDA has made Pfizer-bioNTech covid-19 vaccine available under an emergency access mechanism called EUA" (emergency use authorization). "VACCINE HAS NOT UNDERGONE THE SAME TYPE OF REVIEW AS AN FDA-APPROVED OR CLEARED PRODUCT". Those of us getting vaccine are 2nd phase guinea pigs.  I am okay with that, the risks of the vaccine are infinitesible compared to the risks of me getting covid, so I'm okay with taking the vaccine risk.

I'm not an anti vaxxer. vaccines are good. However, more important than vaccines in reducing the prevalence of those diseases was advancement in sanitary conditions.

I'm not an antivaxer I just bitch about vaccines and won't get one and parrot anti-vaxxer talking points

dude... come on

Remember that every argument you have with someone on MWCboard is actually the continuation of a different argument they had with someone else also on MWCboard.

Reduction in smallpox, polio, and measels was 100% vaccine

Yeah, reduction of deaths from dental procedures is largely due to better sanitation and antibiotics.  

Smallpox is due to the disease being eradicated thanks to vaccines.

I am fully vaccinated and so are my children. Fool

lots of anti vaxxers are fully vaccinated! they have to be to participate in civil society. 

That doesn't make you claim you're not an anti vaxxer WHILE LITERALLY COMPLAINING ABOUT VACCINATIONS AND QUESTIONING THEIR EFFECTIVENESS

Remember that every argument you have with someone on MWCboard is actually the continuation of a different argument they had with someone else also on MWCboard.

Reduction in these diseases just happens to correlate perfectly with advancement in sanitary conditions. OK

Smallpox was ravaging the world still in the 1960's dude.  It was the deployment of vaccines in South America, Asia and Africa that eradicated it.
