  1. Carol, don’t misunderstand me, I’m not anti-vaccines however neither I’m going to take a hasty decision because there is a mass hysteria. That’s why I said, I’d rather wait first a bit until see what happens. They don’t count on me as a free volunteer to doing of guinea pig.

    • Adrian, I believe and all the science and medicine points to this being an ok vaccine to take. Do not let the hurry up aspect fool you into thinking it is not going to work or is going to harm. The trials had way more then enough people and specifically chose those of the ethnicity and genetics that are being hit hardest. If one contracts COVID-19 there is no guarantee that you will not get a severe case. Going severe usually means you die.

  2. Pfizer former CEO warned about mRNA gene-editing vaccines, according him it is a crime against humanity. German top virologist and Immunologist professor Bhakdi Sucharit said people do not understand the danger of this new unproven gene modification techniques.
    Doctors in US and EU submitted two petition to Halt the use of this crap called vaccine. Scientific details and articles are published at Global research frim some of the top pest experts. There are about 100.000 doctors and health workers in organisations such World doctors alliance DA, ACU who have serious concerns about this unproven, manipulated and fraudulent studies. How can you approve a vaccine after 90 days testing ???
    If people protesting GMO, how can they welcome such technologies inside their cells???? This is a question by greatest German virologist, Sucharit Bhakdi.

    • Cyruss, mRNA was discovered in 1961 and in the 90s began to be used for disease treatments. mRNA is not alien technology nor is it used to harm. Advantages of RNA vaccines are the ability to design and produce them quickly. With thousands of people dying daily, think all over the world, speed in arriving at an efficacious COVID-19 vaccine has been essential. You can choose to not take the vaccine.

    • Gordon say many refusenik and denialists they have been get COVID and die, but he forget are many more which they have had and are survived, around 97 percent everyone who’s ever gotten it had , the high ratio of deaths on US, is not the same in other countries where is at least 10 times less or even lower

    • Cindy Myer, While it looks like Australia has beaten this thing, think again. All it takes is for one person to slip through the cracks and start it up again. I do applaud Australia’s handling of this pandemic. Wish we had done the same here in the U.S.

  4. It seems in three short days since Britain launched its vaccine roll out that those with severe allergies should not take it on advice. As there are 50 millions Americans with allergies where is the line drawn between those who should take it and those who should not. Or does it matter. The logical, rational option at this stage of the ‘game’ is to take Ivermectin among other options. At least it will greatly reduce the fear factor of the unknown. The vaccine anyone can see if they choose to remove the blinkers, is all about the baksheesh and sheeple and chortling eugenicists. “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” I refuse to be nursed on a dry tit.

    • US-First, The severe reactions to the vaccine have been minimal. These reactions were in people who have had past anaphylactic issues. Not sure why you would recommend an antiparasitic drug for a viral infection.Virus/parasite are not the same thing. Ivermectin is not used for viral infections. If you fear the vaccine do not take it.

    • I suggest no jobs with public contact, no travel, cancelled health insurance…all part of that same choice…the price of conspiracy theories…and of course if a refusenik gets COVID…as so many denialists have already…have and died….

    • Adriabn2MiL18, Whether you get the vaccine is your personal choice. We would have far fewer deaths if we had had the vaccine much sooner as well as addressing the pandemic in a responsible, scientific manner. The leadership vacuum along with the craziness tied to the election caused most of our deaths. If those who wanted to really protect themselves could have had the vaccine, we would not be looking at 3,000 dead per day. Not acceptable!

  7. Mike, The vaccine is the ONLY way to get out of this pandemic because of the leadership vacuum we have experienced under Trump. Yes, I will take the vaccine as soon as I qualify to get it.
