To jab?...or not to jab?...that is the question

Okay, the horse is dead. We've beaten the stuffing out of it until there is nothing left to beat.

Yesterday, the edict came down from the Ministry of Truth; THOU SHALT VAX. There is no choice; thou shalt do it, or else thou shalt be gone. Period.

So, I have a couple questions for the great members here. Not looking for any editorials, there's plenty of those elsewhere here (probably what killed the horse we've been relentlessly beating by choking it to death on them). Just two simple questions. 'Yes' and 'No' are perfectly acceptable answers to both.

1. Did YOU get the vax?

2. Did YOU have any lasting or serious side effects from getting the vax?

All of us, myself included, have a story about someone we know, or someone's brother who had a friend who knew a guy, ad nauseum. These questions aren't about them. These two simple questions are about YOU, and only YOU.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, got the Moderna vaccine the first day it was available.

No side effects except 1 day of muscle soreness at the injection site and an inability of beautiful women to keep their hands off me. That last side effect has declined quite a bit in six months so I’m looking to get a booster shot.

Thanks!

I am amazed on how many members are being so compliant
with this "vaccine" jab. You can mark me as being non-compliant.

Thanks!

I have no choice in the matter. Well, I do have a choice I suppose; I could refuse and wind up surrendering my credentials and walk away from a 35 year career 5 years shy of retirement.

That's a pretty heavy decision! Not one I take lightly. Hence the OP.

You call it compliant I call it being safe. To each their own.

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

Can I ask what you do?

a reply to: mamabeth

It’s a no brainer to me. I image COVID patients in virtual autopsies and work with all the strains in the lab. From my point of view it would be selfish for me not to get the vaccine and expose my family to the virus from the lab or a patient. My wife is a behavioral health provider so she is required because of patient contact which is mostly children. It would be just as selfish for her not to get it and potentially increase the chances of exposure that way.

Science can be scary and foreign I guess.

1. Yes, AZ
2. No - Mild tiredness and muscle stiffness for a couple of days after the first jab as if I was coming down with a mild cold - absolutely nothing after the second jab, did a 30 mile hike up 7 moutains with a bergen full of sandbags to cure 'lockdown legs'.

I'm very well paid and not giving up my career.

Yeah right,just how safe are you with an experimental vaccine
against a virus that always mutates? They are now talking about
getting booster shots multiple times a year to fight this plandemic.

There, you have their reason for requiring it. I’ve seen many large corporations do this.

Few years off from pensions and boom — you’re gone. Saves boat loads of money for them.

I knew a high level exec. for Snapon. 30+ years working for the company (they supposedly loved him). 1 year before retirement and pension - canned.

In answer to your questions:

1. No and never will
2. N/A

Well, but here's the thing...

I've already had covid. I had it in early December 2020.

Thanks!

Thanks!

1. Yes.
2. Yes and no. Hopefully the reduction in likelihood of severe Covid illness or death is somewhat lasting.
No. The muscle soreness only lasted 2 days. I felt like I had a fever once but thermometer said no.

a reply to: JohnnyCanuck

the ache was not at the injection site

For me it was about two inches below the injection site.

I am retired and have made plans just in case they threaten
to take my social security if I don't comply.
