This includes giving them a glass of water.

I'm 74, drink plenty of water, never get vaccinated, and am not afraid of an imaginary virus.

Correlation = causation?

That needs to be proven.

Anything you ingest can kill you. While I was in high school, an alumnus died during a frat hazing ritual because he drank too much water. I couldn’t conclude that drinking water in and of itself was a hazard, obviously.

My wife’s cousin was murdered almost exactly 5 years ago. If I wanted to, I could probably work back a day or a week from that moment and correlate almost anything to her death.

Be a little bit more realistically skeptical beyond just hearing an anecdote here and there and assuming they are related.

Undoubtedly there will be attributable deaths to the vaccine. So far, even if I assume all of the deaths which correlate to the vaccine equal causation, it looks less harmful than the disease we are trying to prevent. I don’t know of any drug which doesn’t cause some death, anything from caffeine to cocaine.

You are absolutely correct. Let us not dismiss any of them.

My mailman so worried about Covid finally received his vaccination.
I asked him one simple question. I asked him if he ever received a flu shot ?
He said " No" . I asked him " with over 2 million dead since the influenza stepped
foot on American soil and hundreds of thousands dying world wide since then
why not get the flu shot? " He said " I don't trust the flu shot. "

I responded " with over 100 years of scientific study you don't trust the flu shot but
given a novel virus and a few months of study followed by nation wide worry ,government
sponsored and media driven hysteria, you chose vaccination without the same consideration ?

You should go home and think about that. "


I told him there is no wrong or right answer.
I opined the following..........

"Don't let any outside force sway or opinion."

" Data speaks volumes not opinion including mine."

I use Facebook for family and hobbies for which it excels, not news which it is less than useless for. Fox and CNN lie they just lie by ignoring the other side.

Back in 2007 a radio station in California held a contest for a Wii and a women died from water intoxication!

Yeah, but intentionally misusing it starting from the first post of the thread pretty much torpedoed you before you got out of the harbor.

Which leads me to my next question.

Will his cause of death be a result of underlying problems or COVID ?

I say what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

What say you?
Guy was in his 70’s. Preexisting conditions are unknown at this time. He did not demonstrate any adverse reaction or distress during the 15 minute observation period following the injection.

Situation is being investigated.

Deaths are expected during trials, especially, when the inoculated are older with other health conditions.

Some who receive the placebo also die.
