Its an individual choice. Make a decision that you can live with and don't dwell on it.

Define "individual."

No, it's ALL about control...

It's not about control. It's about medical science.

I've got a flu shot every year for as long as I can remember.

Covid vax is a joke. Can't believe organizations are still requiring it.

I remember years ago I deployed to the Middle East. I rolled but my sleeves, crossed my arms and walked the gauntlet.

I got three shots in each arm with a gun. I told them I was up to date. They said "tough keep walking".

Define "individual."



It's not about control. It's about medical science.

According to Merriam-Webster, an individual is a single, particular being or thing, especially a human being contrasted with a social group, or a single organism in contrast to a larger group. As a noun, it refers to a single person or thing, and as an adjective, it describes something belonging to or for a single person or entity, like "individual opinions".
As a noun

• A single human being:This is the most common usage, referring to a person apart from a larger community or institution.

Define "science"...My good friend is a medical doctor and allergist since 1972. He advises ALL of his patients to avoid mRNA vaccines. Is he "science", or does it have to be another science?

Therefore, the choice to Vax is not individual. It directly impacts the social group.

I had a girlfriend who was into astrology. She kept insisting that the charts said I would be unfaithful to her. What's your point? Are we going to argue anecdotes and exceptions?

I'm sorry to hear that.

As you know, there are a lot of factors involved and no vaccine works 100%. I do believe the different vaccines did protect a lot of people at that time. Not that it makes it any easier in this case. It was a terrible thing across the board.

Personally, I'm done with COVID vaccinations as the threat level has dramatically changed for most of us. As for Pneumonia and Shingles, I'm right there with the OP and got mine, too.
