Default Will You And Your Family Get The Vaccine?

How many of you and your family will be getting the vaccine for C-19?

I will make sure it is well researched before I take. Otherwise why not, I take the flu vaccine for the past 4 yrs, no problem.

Nope. I won’t be taking the first vaccine that is available. I don’t buy the 1st version of any product so I won’t be putting something that isn’t proven into my body.

Nope, I don’t plan to. Most vaccines need years and years of trials. They’re ram tossing this thing through and I fear the cure will end up being worse than the illness to start. Given some time I probably still won’t get it but I’d the option i there for folks and it’s properly vetted.

Eventually, but definitely not as soon as it’s available.

As soon as it's gone through all the proper phases of testing I will. I wouldn't touch a vaccine that had been fast tracked for political purposes, as have been happening in a few countries.

I likely will eventually.
I’ll wait to make sure those with other health issues and folks at greater risk get it first.

The hard part might be when your told you can’t do something because you don’t have the shot.

That’s a good point. The way our society lined up for toilet paper and hand sanitizer, maybe the healthy and uncompromised should let the others get first crack. Of course you can’t “panic buy” a vaccine but allowing the elderly and compromised to have it first would be a good thing.

It's going to be a long time before it gets here, lots of people will get it before I roll up my sleeve. I do have faith in modern medicine the flu shots have been working for me with no ill effects.

Agreed, they aren’t the most trustworthy.

Right??
Cause everything else that comes from China is top quality goods, eh?

If I wait long enough and the covid is extinct, then why do I need a shot?

I’ll hold off as long as possible...and then I’ll hold off a little bit more...this communist country can shove mandatory Chinese vaccines up their rear end...this virus isn’t the Black Plague and I’ll take my chances with it..

I won’t take the vaccine. I would really like to see the chemical makeup of it though. In laymen’s terms.

I will probably go get the vaccine, the same day as I voluntarily go drop off my military style assault AR-15 at the local detachment for destruction without compensation. It's for the safety of the public. That way I won't have to go out twice, and I can reduce my carbon footprint.

No and I am immune compromised. I also don't get the other flu shots.

On a side note all of us gin owners say we won't give up our guns. Yet here we are and a lot are saying they will get the vaccine. This vaccine is for public saftey and our protection. The same garbage they tell us about gun control. have any of you yes men thought about this. It is the same people telling you both lines of garbage. Maybe we need to think brfore we follow along.

Default RNA vs Traditional

Depends what vaccine, I'm usually all for new technology but I don't feel comfortable taking an RNA vaccine that directly codes for the production of proteins to destroy pathogens. I blame Prions like CWD or CJD for my paranoia, misfolded proteins are nasty.

I think I'll choose a traditional vaccine that contains an inactivated form of COVID and let my own immune system build the needed antigen proteins.

Maybe I'm crazy but these are things I think about.
