Nope. Negatory.

I'm not a guinea pig. And I'm especially not a guinea pig when the experimenters insist that I have absolutely no legal recourse should the experiment go south.

In a world where you can sue McDonalds because you spilled coffee on your lap and it was too hot, and you CAN'T sue a pharmaceutical if they inject you with a substance that causes severe medical problems or even death... there is something definitely WRONG with that picture.

I got 2 Vaccines and 1 Booster.

My wife got 2 Vaccines and 2 Boosters.

My son got 2 Vaccines, not sure on the Boosters.

My daughter-in-law got 2 Vaccines, not sure on the Boosters.

Not one of us ever got the virus and we are all doing just fine.

I took the vaccine and 1 booster. I caught covid and barely noticed I had it. I have since followed with a second booster.

Science, and vaccines, are wonderful things if you have the capacity to understand them.

I got the vaccine and several boosters, approximately every six months. I’ve had no side effects from the vaccine. I’ve never had Covid-19. I know I could still get it, but am confident that it would be mild because of my vaccinations. I know people who weren’t vaccinated and nearly died.

I had the first two Pfizer doses and then one Moderna booster. A couple of weeks ago, both my wife and I somehow contracted Covid - really no idea how. It was relatively mild though, not as bad as a cold that has your sinuses all stopped up. I felt bad one day, had about a half a degree of fever one day. My wife never had fever at all. I was nauseous for a couple of weeks, but admittedly, some of that may have been psychosomatic.

Since I had Covid, I can't get the next booster for about 3 months and I intend to get it. I feel that it makes the disease much milder. During the first doses, my wife's reaction was much worse than mine; she was really tired and felt awful. I essentially had no reaction at all. So - I'm thinking her "vaccine" was more effective than mine since she had fewer issues with the disease than I did, but all in all, it was quite mild for both of us.

I think the shots are worth it. I'm 75 and have several negative factors - heart disease (had triple bypass) and I used to smoke. So it could have been bad.

Did not, nor will I ever take the wuflu experimental gene therapy inoculations. Got the Omicron for a week, lost 30 lbs (which i needed to lose)and went back to work the next week. I trust in God that he has built my immune system up to par and will carry me on.

then one day i was at a supermarket and they said they had a vaccine slot ready with no waiting. so i got the moderna shot 1 and 2. then Omnicron came around and the boosters. no way in hell am i getting any of that junk.
Due to the controversy over safety, I have chosen to wait.

As soon as the shot is available at my local Taco Bell, I’ll feel better about it.

I took the vaccines, two plus booster, partly because my wife considered herself high risk, so for her... also for work. It wasn't like "No jab no job", but having the shots gave me more options so I could participate at work.

Now, wasn't the vaccine Trump's vaccine? Didn't Kamala say she would not take it because it was his?

So this being so, all the anti-vaxxers are anti-Trump, right?

I'm pro-Trump, so thusly pro-vaccine I guess.

But I'm vaccinated enough. I've not got the Rona and haven't been sick since about February of 2020.

I apologize to the antiVaxxers who want me to snuff or grow a second head or whatnot.

I keep pointing this out when polls like this come up.

The originator should make sure the respondents are identified. It seems like some people do a little sock puppetry in their responses.

Anyway, you did not include the next obvious question: "I did not take the vaccine and regret it", not sure why you left it out.
