    So you’ve never been truly sick is all that means. Just means you’ll die when you have a truly dangerous sickness and don’t take any precautions for it.

      Sure. I haven’t been truly sick. I would probably take anything if the decease was painful enough. But that’s not what we are talking about here with vaccines, specially vaccines against the flu or something that isnt dangerous to most people to get.

        Pretty sure most people think of Covid, the thing a lot of people did die to, or Polio, the returning sickness that we literally had a president who couldn’t walk because of.

        Fun part being we’re having life-debilitating diseases (again, polio) come back from the results of the anti-vax rhetoric.

          Yeah covid was worth vaccinating against if you were above 50 or had other deceases since before, or were overweight and so on.

          There was a lot of interesting info in the statistics over deaths. I went over it a lot during covid.

          Basically just followed the numbers and made decisions based on that.

            Imagine this: You get covid because you weren’t vaccinated, but you recover with no lasting side effects. While you had it though, you unknowingly transmitted it to someone who was immunocompromised and couldn’t get vaccinated or just elderly and more vulnerable, that person dies. Did you make the right choice to not get vaccinated? Had you been vaccinated there’s a good chance you never would have had covid and gotten that person sick. That’s the risk you’re taking

            All that research and none of it towards how much the vaccine wouldn’t have affected you huh? Well just don’t pass it off to the next generation you POS.

            It was also worth vaccinating against if you were none of these things to ensure that people who couldn’t take the vaccine would benefit from herd immunity.
