No need to wait! Your Dear Leader said you can just swallow Clorox, and shine a laser up your butt!

Oh, BTW. 66 ain't old. Just sayin'

And also I could die in a month from covid, dunno.
No offense, but your comments make exactly zero sense.

If you're at all interested in the ins and outs of how this vaccine was able to be developed I recommend...the story of biochemist Jennifer Doudna The Code Breaker by Walter Isaacson (the author of the Jobs biography and many others). It's actually about the development of the Crispr/CAS9 gene editing technology that is a tool for the splicing of genetic matierial that allows for the development of mRNA vaccines like the Pfizer-BionTech and Moderna Covid-19 vaccines, (without fucking microchips). This is miraculous work done by Doudna and her team, that allows for us to be vaccinated against the Covid without having dead, or almost dead virus injected into us. Although viruses are not actually living things so they cannot be dead or almost dead things either. The technology involved is remarkable and no matter what our alt-right idiot countrymen have to say...is probably the safest of anti-viral vaccines yet developed.

But here's the deal. The more people who are infected with Covid-19, the more variants we will have to deal with down the line. The fewer people infected, the fewer variants. That alone is reason for everybody to be innoculated. Another reason, the fewer people walking around with the virus, the fewer other people will be infected, including grandma and grandpa who have a considerably more diffcult time fighting it off.

Just do it.

If you're not a doctor or a scientist, why do you think you know enough to question a vaccine that has been approved by the doctors and scientists at the FDA and has shown a remarkable efficacy in the real world.

Your actions represent nothing other than ignorance and selfishness. Period.

I've decided there are three primary reasons why we hear the nonsense we hear coming out of conservatives and Republicans on Covid-19, the election results, Biden's intellectual capacity, and pretty much everything else coming out of the right in this country...

They're stupid enough to believe it
They're crazy enough to believe it
They don't believe it but they're sociopathic enough to say it anyway if they think it will get them what they want.

You are very likely to get COVID sooner or later. Then you may die, or be sick for the rest of your life, or feel horrid for a period of time, or maybe have a mild case. Regardless of how it goes, you are very likely to give it to anyone you live with.

Maybe you'll see some motivation to get vaccinated in all that, or maybe you won't.

She is suffering from Addison desease and has to be hospitalized about one or two times yearly in a life threatening situtation. This is my uneasy situation.

So my innermost wish is that any of the Corona virus/vaccination deniers may GO TO HELL as soon as possible. That said, I will be amongst the first to be ready ( and my mother as well) to be vaccinated.

Please tell me a serious reason why you do not accept a vaccination. No esoteric or else bullshit, please.

Thanks for your reply.
I told my doctor when she gets the vaccine, I'll have her administer it to me. I'll PAY for it, and pay her to shoot me with it. I no more trust government free stuff hacks with needles than I would trust Bill Clinton in a battered woman's shelter.

You show your ignorance with every post to this board. Your doctor will get the vaccine from the exact same source as Walgreens, CVS or your local gov't-sponsored pop-up.
