I worked in Corporate for a Fortune 500 Pharm in 1976. They weren't telling their own employees to get that flu vaccination. In fact the subject was not be to talked about at all!!!!! You were met with blank stares and frowns if you brought up that flu vaccination.

Only in my 20's then but that started me questioning flu shots. Big time Marketing ploy to see how far public would go with it. If it was so critical, why weren't they promoting it to their own employees?

Experience working in the industry doesn't count?

Can’t blame them. Parents first priority is to their kids, even if others don’t understand.
I have auto immune disease developed in childhood after forced vaccinations. I am so ill from it that I am on chemo to keep my immune system shut down because it was killing me. Vaccines can damage the immune system permanently.

I’m sorry. That’s terrible.

I started showing symptoms for my autoimmune disease for the first time not long after my one and only flu shot. I know most would say it’s just coincidence but who knows.

Vaccines are effective and save lives, but I believe in freedom.

Mandatory vaccines will be equally as successful as the anti Right to Bear campaign is.

I am so sorry..... I also have an auto immune disease from vaccines... I am using MMS to try and get rid of the poison..... It looks like its slowly fading,especially the patches on my arms....... But I am running out of the MMS stuff and I dont wanna stop taking it so I will probably order more...... (Big pharma stuff doesnt do anything but mask it,make it go into remission)

I want to get this crap out of my system!!!

Yes I am for vaccines and for mandating them. Injuries related to vaccines (one of the most common criticisms for vaccines) are rather uncommon based on reporting. Only 6,600 claims filed to the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program over two decades with billions upon billion vaccines given. And we aren't talking bruises, in the case of the Tetnis shot a weak arm the next day or getting the virus despite the vaccine but serious reactions such as allergic reactions.

My only caveat is that we have enough vaccines and the vaccines are shown to work. One problem with the flu shot is that the vaccine contains the common flu strains expected that year, this makes it harder to figure out. What is a problem is a case like that of Shingles where the vaccine has a 90% efficacy rate meaning 10% of those vaccinated can get it. We don't know the efficacy of Covid-19 vaccines. Also we have to have a supply that can provide for say 60/70% of the population to mandate them and accessibility to vaccinations. Most can be done in doctor's offices and clinics so it isn’t a problem unless you just don't trust doctors.

What happened to "my body, my choice"?

Maybe it will help the logical and moral inconsistency you're suffering from.
