Those of us that have researched vaccines in general for over 25 years, and the COVID vaccine in particular (for the past year+), have reasonable doubts as to its efficacy in all cases. I personally have not had any vaccinations for over 65 years (my entire life, for religious reasons) and have been extraordinarliy healthy, allowing the immune system God gave me to take care of me.

Will I get the vaccine? No.

The portrayal of those who do not get the COVID vaccine (or any vaccine for that matter) are typically treated as conspiracists, deniers or worse. Yet, there is a rational, scientific and resonable argument to be made against getting the vaccine. There is still much information out there, despite the fact Google, FB and others do all they can to remove this opposing viewpoint. For those unaware, the maojr media hs done all it can to squelch any truthful argument (specifically, by two CDC whistleblowers) that the MMR vaccine does in fact have a causal relationship with autism. Yet, anyone that asserts this is labeled a denier, and typically is de-platformed or their rights of free speech are impinged. That might even happen here on Medium. I hope not.

Everyone is entitled to make their own decision, without being made to feel as though they are wrong. An informed individual can typically make their own diecision regarding a vaccine. I am informed, and I do not consent.
