A discussion came up with several collegues a few nights ago about the Covid vaccine. Opinions varied greatly. What are some of your views?

Didn’t bother with it. Why? Because I’m not old and I’m not in a high risk category when it comes to COVID. Generally I don’t like to put substances into my body unless absolutely necessary. No regrets.

I didn't take the vaccine. I was pregnant twice during the pandemic and the first go around my doctor that I trust advised me against it. I am also young (21 currently) and very fit. My doctor then told me that I could take the vaccine at a later date, but I was more worried at that point about vaccine side effects than covid. I like to keep my body pure and natural...I eat freakishly healthy.

Back in June I got Covid and I felt bad for 1 day and was 100% fine after that, which leads me to believe that I might have natural immunity. I still tested positive for Covid for over a week though, but I was doing aerobics, peloton, etc in my house. It is easy to isolate as I am a stay at home mom.

My then boyfriend, now husband, and I, likely got it in January 2020 as we were sick for awhile fairly bad.

I tested positive for COVID in December 2020. My doctor prescribed ivermectin (I-Mask+) and subsequently recommended against COVID vaccination as the previous infection was expected to provide adequate protection against reinfection.

Two years later, the three of us that experienced Alpha COVID infections and were not vaccinated have not experienced reinfections.

I'm a little older, in a higher risk group, and my wife is an RN that occasionally has to work in a Covid ward. I didn't really want to take the boosters but she kind of insisted that I do. I know that none of it prevents Covid, but if it lessens the severity than I guess it's worth it.

i didn’t care if i got the vaccine or not because i am not in a high risk group and the data showed me that i would probably not die from covid. there were people waiting in queue for shots and i was not about to partake in that nonsense.

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.

The vaccine gave my previously healthy 30-year-old son a myocarditis heart attack so I would advise against it for anyone that is not in a high-risk category if they got covid. I got covid twice and it was no worse than a cold for me. Wife got covid twice with no vaccine and she had a worse time than me from it but she's fine now.
