500000+ have died of Covid in this country alone. How many long haulers, who knows.

So far no deaths have been attributed to the vaccine in the US.

Some people are higher risk from Covid and others are lower risk. Some of those deaths were “with covid, not from covid”. I even saw a collage of faces on the National news the other day showing all of the victims and recognized one face as someone who’s death was falsely attributed to covid. It was eerie.

There have been deaths post vaccine, no one is going admit that it had anything to do with the vaccine, even if it did have to do with the vaccine. The Miami doctor, have we heard any follow up? The California healthcare worker? Anything?

People naturally trust what they see on the news, even though the news just repeats drug industry press releases.

Unless you have serious risk factors, your chance of getting a serious case of covid is very small. The same person who isn't afraid to go out driving on the freeway is afraid of a virus that is harmless for most people.

We will be forced to get a vaccine, when they become more available. There will be social pressure, pressure from businesses, and possibly government mandates. It's just a pretense that there will be free choice.

The only hope is that the give us a choice of which type of vaccine to get.

Right. And why are people being told there have been NO deaths from the vaccines? And why do they trust whoever is telling them that?

1. No, as indicated by number of excess deaths.

2. As I said absolutely no connection has been established so far. And no excess deaths in large clinical trials. Almost all people who ever died have drunk water at least once. Did water kill them?

I’m already seeing the social pressure. It’s really concerning. I don't want it and I don’t want my kids to have too have it in order to access school, college, employment, etc.

I have no idea why people believe that. It’s pretty obvious that it has happened.

I've gotten the first vaccine and had a sore arm. I'm getting the second one next week and have no qualms.
