Another reason for vaccine hesitancy- it MAY reduce immune response to other viruses.

    I think they have a psychological need to believe the vaccines will save them. There has always been rejection of science/empirical evidence and appeal to authority rampant in this demographic but it seems this goes beyond that. I think it’s a fear defense mechanism. Denial.

    OK where can I find the 24 words? You said the majority of people admitted to some hospital were vaccinated. I asked the reason for their admission. Without knowing that your comment has no meaning. You don't have to answer but suggesting I try harder is pretty silly, wouldn't you agree?

    Just demonstrating how there are so many pro's and con's you or I can't ever know which are fact or fiction.. And to buy in to one or the other outlets is lunacy at best..

    Skepticism is king today any thing else is conditioned to accept disinformation..

    Another reason for vaccine hesitancy. The lies we are told.

    Maddie, 13, volunteered for the Pfizer clinical trials and suffered severe injury. The mother wanted to run this ad but Comcast refused at the last minute.

    It isn't hard to find the current science on the internet. What is hard is separating it from the misinformation that is also readily available. I have been guilty of poorly separating them myself. Skepticism is smart with so many competing interests involved in nearly everything we encounter.

    Let me provide an example. The current misinformation from government is that vaccinating not only protects you but it protects others. That is completely untrue. No vaccine has ever interfered with viral or bacterial transmission. transmission occurs outside the body. The antibodies one might have work to get rid of the infection once it arrives but it is impossible for it to prevent transmission and infection. This isn't new or related only to covid. It is true of all vaccinations. It doesn't even take knowledge of medical science to know that. Common sense is all that is required. There is no such thing as an antibody that can put up an anti viral force field. I bought into that lie before the extensive reading I did about viruses and the diseases they cause.

    To give a proper analysis of the benefits of a vaccine one must also take account of the percentage of the population who are vaccinated eg if 80% of the population are vaccinated then a factor of four should be applied to the stats

    Does anyone put it past China to have already engineered another virus that will cause a terrible reaction to those that took the mrna vaccines? What is stopping another "accident"?
