Covid can also cause long-term effects due to damage to lungs, heart, and brain, and could be considered a pre-existing health condition. My friend's uncle died from it, my wife's uncle (very healthy, 48) who served in the military had it for a month, was almost hospitalized, and described it as extremely painful. Covid is not something you want to really risk getting.

Blah blah blah.

No evidence yet that there are any "long" covid symptoms. Just a lot of people trying to get out of work saying every ache and pain is related to covid.

What about all the people who had covid and are just fine?

Lot of those.

Scary? No. Did you even read the link?

1. The incidence is extremely rare and no higher than what would be expected regardless of vaccination status.
2. The article explicitly states that there is NO EVIDENCE that the cases are caused by the vaccine.
3. The group affected is males under 30 primarily (also the group where the highest incidence normally is found)
4. The cases have been mild and temporary.

What IS scary is the ignorant lies and misrepresentations being passed around on the internet. That is potentially keeping people from getting a vaccine that could well save their lives and certainly will help in getting back to normal with this pandemic behind us.

What is scary is the consistent attempt to suppress the truth. Facts aren't something to be afraid of. If people look at the facts of the vaccines and decide to get it... that is their choice. It is my choice to look at all the facts and make a decision, what you want is that I don't get those facts so I will do what you want me to do...disgusting.

The link I shared regarding fertility concerns from Dr. Lindsay’s comments to ACIP? Yes, I read it. Here it is if you’re interested. She is not the only Dr./scientist raising such concerns. https://www.jennifermargulis.net/hal...ist-urges-cdc/

I agree. Since these vaccines are EUA, and are fairly new, two things MUST happen if we are to have an ethical vaccine rollout. We must have freedom from coercion and access to as much information as possible. Otherwise, we are not giving informed consent to this drug. Currently, we have a scenario where people are being forced to take the shot to keep their jobs, or stay in college, and at the same time an insane level of censorship is happening. Stories of adverse events are coming out--and they are being shut down. Doctors are afraid to speak up. This is not how a free society works.

COVID may not be something you want to risk getting and that is certainly understandable. COVID vaccination is something that I do not want to risk getting, as I am a healthy, middle-aged man that has already recovered from a mild COVID infection.
