I am bumping this post to the top of the page and updating because, well, I’ll explain.
First, thank you. Sincere and genuine thankfulness for your fellowship. Visitors to this site continue to prove that our nation is created by, and an assembly of, the most decent, honest, generous and kind-hearted people in the world. The responses to the question of ‘why didn’t you take the covid-19 shot?’ are nothing short of remarkable.
In the bigger picture if you want to fill up your faith cup and recognize the scale of commonsense assembly in our nation, take the time to read through the 2,000+ responses.
The feedback you are providing is exceptional and trust me when I say that far more people are reading these responses than you could fathom. Additionally, the responses have reasserted my belief in the scale of our national assembly. There are far more of us, ordinary, hardworking, commonsense, pragmatic and smart people, than the self-described intellectual elites would ever admit.
In addition to the responses below, there have been hundreds of emails answering the question, which suddenly made me realize that no one has really ever asked this question before in a format that provides ordinary people with the ability to respond.
There is also a yearning to talk about this issue, publicly and with deliberation; massively so. And I am hopeful (insert grin here) this small corner of the internet is about to push this conversation into a much larger national forum. Our nation needs a big conversation about this.
If I had to pick a single phrase to encapsulate the myriad of phenomenal responses to the question I would use the phrase, “intellectual discernment”; which again provides buckets of faith that a large number of people are wide awake, albeit part of what I call a potato revolution growing safely underground.
Also, unbeknownst to front page readers I am stunned at the people in/around operation warp-speed, these are people in government directly attached to the issue, who have contacted CTH on the backside, stepped forward and said they also didn’t take the shot because, well, despite their belief in the purpose and principle at the time, things were just not adding up and ultimately seemed sketchy. They couldn’t talk (so they felt), couldn’t even hint at their concern; but when it came to making the personal decision, they waited.
I also owe it to you to answer the question of my own status, which is a big heck no – I did not take the jab.
Why? Because in the preceding years of all my research into the rapidly exposed corruption of our government, there was just no way in hell I was going to trust that same system. A system that literally was working outside the constitution and legal framework of our nation to destroy a sitting U.S. President is going to suddenly care about my health. Nope, it did not align. I also looked at the datapoint of the U.S.S. Comfort delivered to New York City under the grandest of media proclamations about impending medical doom, only to see the ship sit empty and completely unused despite the scale of the narrative that surround its purpose.
Lastly, and more obliquely, the datapoint of one of my heroes Franklin Graham assembling a NY field hospital to serve over 20,000 patients; another massive endeavor that sat empty and without use. However, prior to the hindsight, it was the in-real-time fight from officials in/around the area who tried to block Samaritans Purse from setting up the facility. If the SARS-CoV-2 issue was as great a threat as declared, then why would anyone fight to keep out a field hospital that could provide such relief. It just didn’t make sense.
Those issues, and others, formed the baseline of my inability to reconcile the key issue of ‘trust’ needed to believe in the vaccine. Additionally, I am healthy and not within any of the risk factors. However, I also feel strongly that each health decision is unique to the individual person, and everyone was making the best decisions for them based on the available information at the time; so, I carry no judgement for those who made a different choice.
As noted, I am bumping this to the top of the site so that our conversation can continue. Normally I would start a new thread, but this one is different. I don’t want to break the continuity and I want to provide everyone the ability to see they are not alone.
Love to all,
Sundance
Reader feedback request.
I was quite shocked to review a poll I took on the Twitter last month showing that 85% of the people who follow the CTH Twitter account [TLR2] did not take the COVID-19 jab.
Without any judgement implied or inferred I am genuinely curious, why not?
With the situation clearly in hindsight, and/or given all the pressure that may have been applied to each individual situation, I am genuinely curious what was it that made you choose not to take the COVID-19 vaccination.
If you are comfortable, and please understand that no pressure is intended in any way whatsoever, could you share why you didn’t take the vaccine and how do you feel about that decision in hindsight?
If you did take the vaccination, there is also no judgement in this question. As I said back in 2021 each individual is unique, each situation is unique, and each person has to make the best decision about what is in their individual best interests. So please, don’t let this issue divide our conversation.
I am genuinely curious as to the reason so many people would withstand the public and perhaps peer pressure to follow the ‘vaccination’ advice. Also, how has that decision impacted your life? Did you lose friends and family over your personal health decision? Did those relationships heal over time? Or anything else you might find pertinent to the general question.

(1) I never took the jab and never even considered it. The “covid vaccine passport” BS was enough for me to know it was a control mechanism scam. Common sense should tell you that. Do you have to show “proof of vaccine” ( or did you ever get one) for a flu shot, tetanus, whooping cough, diphtheria, etc. Why then did people have to show proof of this Covid BS then? 🤔
(2) The political/ media/medical/ Big Pharm industry over hype with the push from that garden gnome Foulchi and Scarf Lady calling for lockdowns was another thing. I always suspected this was a scam for mail in ballots for election fraud to remove President Trump and conservatives in 2020. Nanzi weeks before said don’t worry about what election night results are, Xiden would win after all the “ballots” were counted.
(3) I decided on taking vitamin D, zinc, quercetin, vitamin C, and bought ivermectin at the farm store. Yes the “dreaded” horse paste.
(4) Yes I lost a couple of friends over them scolding and avoiding me because I refused the jab and the face diaper. Sorry…not sorry..no forgiveness. I look at it this way. They were not friends to be trusted when the chips are down anyway so no great loss. However, I had other friends who did not judge me, but had taken the first two jabs. Later, I begged them not to take the “booster”. One who admitted to taking the booster after my warning told me I wished I had listened to you. He ended up with heart trouble and had to have a pacemaker.
(5) In 2022, I finally came down with a weird feeling in mid summer. A friend gave me some home test kits and I tested positive for China Virus. (never reported it to the Gubmit) The symptoms were a slight fever (99.8) that aspirin, ibuprofen, or tylenol would not reduce. Never got any higher or lower, just steady. Felt very fatigued. Had blurred and sometimes double vision in the outside bright sunlight. Had a hive like rash from my ankles to my midsection that itched. Sore throat that kept getting worse. No cough, no stopped up nose or lungs, etc.
(6) After a few days of this especially the worsening sore throat, I decided to measure a 200 lb dose of the “dreaded” horse paste ivermectin in a small cup of apple sauce and ate it. I got the dosage from posted links I saw here on the CTH. Within 12 hours the sore throat was completely gone. Took another same dose the next day, the fever disappeared and my eyesight cleared up. On the third day, I took the final dose and all symptoms were going away including the rash and fatigue. Coincidence? Maybe…..however, I think not.
(7) Maybe? because of the supplements I had been taking for almost 2 years, I had a mild case. Don’t know. The crud lasted for appx. 10 days before I tested negative on the home tests. Speaking from my personal experience only, I would rather have the hyped up China Virus any day, when compared to my past experiences with the flu, rhinovirus, or a bad colds. But that’s just me.
I took D3, Zinc, Vitamin C, and multivitamin. Had the Rona and it was like a slight cold. I am convinced that the D3 supplement improved my immune system. I was D3 deficient until six months prior. I had issues with styes in my eyes, constant colds, and the occasional viral infection. In the past 18 months since the Rona passed, I’ve been very healthy. I’m glad your regimen worked for you.
I didn’t get the vaccine because I think for myself, do research, and have a long-standing, knee-jerk reaction to governmental pressure. I was suspicious from the start, but thought it was primarily fear-mongering. Only later did I come to understand the very real dangers of the jab.
I thank God that my job (as a teacher in a private school) did not require us to be vaccinated. In addition, the administration would not tell parents the vaccination status of teachers, even though some families declined to attend because of that.
I did not lose any friends over my decision–but it generally did not come up in discussion. Most people probably assumed I was vaccinated, as our county had one of the highest rates of vaccination in the U.S…. It was fine with me what they assumed, as it wasn’t any of their business. However, when I started hearing about the serious, negative effects of the shots, I was sorry there hadn’t been more discussion earlier, when it might have made a difference….
I’m another non-liberal from Marin.
Greetings! There ARE a few of us here!
We remain unvaxinated in this home. Why? I was a RN specializing in hematology for decades and understood quite well the long established science of immunity and the various ways it is established in the human body. All of my immediate family had the covid virus in late November/December of 2019. We now know that the virus was circulating in our area at this time (Silicone Valley CA) as there were hundreds if not several thousand software engineers from WuHan China, very ill I might add, here in the county. We were very ill with upper respiratory symptoms but not hospitalized and all recovered w/o any further problems… A company out of Seattle WA called ‘Adaptive Biotechnologies’ (Gates was a part owner) developed a Covid Assay that you could take to see if you had had the Covid virus and thus had developed natural immunity. We paid to take the test in April 2020 and our results came back positive. Why would we take a ‘vaccine’ if we had immunity.. from that point on we have declined anything to do with this and am very glad we choose not to get injection..
My sister, an RN, has become Red-pilled on account of all this, and she remains un-vexxed too. She even bought RFK Jr’s book The Real Anthony Fauci.
I know of only one link to the movie that’s still good, and here it is:

In 2001 I was diagnosed with Hep C. From my liver biopsy it was determined that I had probably had it for 20+ years. I got busy and learned EVERYTHING I could and finally got myself enrolled in a 48 week triple therapy drug trial. I cleared the virus in 12 weeks. It was brutal and I went the full 48 weeks. It very likely saved my life, but it almost killed me. I was a lab rat.
When I first heard about the commie virus on Warroom I was worried. My gut told me this was a man made virus. I started reading everything I could find as it spread around the world. I came across articles and presentations written by doctors from India and other countries. I guess these were later scrubbed from the internet, but I saw where the virus had the characteristics of malaria and AIDS. I learned why hydroxychloroqine worked. I also read theories about certain blood types being more susceptible.
I had a routine doctors appointment scheduled. My doctor NEVER required a mask in his office if you weren’t sick. I asked him at the time what was the protocol if I or my husband got the commie virus. He said “nothing, you will ride it out at home”. He also said it would be like a really bad case of bronchitis. I said what about hydroxychloroquine? He said “no, it won’t help and it causes heart problems”. I told him that wasn’t true and there was research coming out of India that says it works. He still denied that. I knew it was true and continued to argue for hydroxy to no avail.
Then I realized that the local hospital parking lot wasn’t running over, the pharmacy wasn’t running over, and doctors offices weren’t running over, but grocery stores and Lowes were. There were no dead bodies or people dieing in the aisles of the grocery store or Lowes. I also knew that a piece of cloth couldn’t possibly stop something as small as a virus. I knew that you needed a full hazmat self contained breathing apparatus suit to stop a virus. Since it was a novel virus I knew at some point we’d all be exposed. Nothing was adding up, and then along came the claim that we could have it and not know it. That was weird because it was supposedly a respiratory virus. I kept researching and settled on treating it like any other respiratory virus if we did catch it.
Then the local news started really pushing getting tested. Cars were lined up like crazy in all the surrounding areas showing
every one getting tested. I certainly wasn’t going to do that because me, being a tinfoil hat wearer, figured they were taking DNA samples….nope, not happening. Then they miraculously had a cure, an experimental “vaccine”. Oh hell NO, that is “I’m from the government, and I’m here to help”. They were out right lying, I just knew it. Why weren’t the employees at the grocery stores and Lowes dropping like flies? I knew the virus was real but it seemed that the whole thing was a psy op, and it was being used to see how the people would react, like one big experiment, and a way to collect millions of peoples DNA.
Because of my experience with 48 weeks of giving myself an injection for Hep C, the fact that absolutely NOTHING made sense with any of this, and my complete distrust of the government, there was no way I was taking their shot. My husband felt the same way.
I have been a regular reader of CTH for years. This posting encouraged me to become a poster. Here is my story why I did not take the vaxx.
In December 2020 we had dinner with a friend who was enamored with the concept of MRNA. So he was one of the first to get a Moderna jab in January 2021. Within a week after getting the jab, he was in the hospital with some sort of pneumonia. He recovered from the pneumonia and in March 2021 he takes the second jab of Moderna.
The results were not good. He is back in the hospital with heart issues. Got the stent and a defibrillator belt to wear for about 8 months. Then in late 2021 he gets a defibrillator implanted in his chest.
In late 2022 we were with him and noticed he now has tremors in his arms that look like Parkinsons.
So our observation of what happened to a friend is why the wife and I did not take the covid vaxx.
In May 2022 the wife and I tested positive for covid and used ivermectin and Dr Zelensky’s Z Stack as our therapeutic. While it was the worse flu we ever experienced, the symptoms lasted only a week. Whether the therapeutics made a difference, I will never know. But now we have natural immunity and intend to stay that way.
My critical thinking skills kicked in. When they approved the polio vaccine they tested us for years before rolling it out to the general public. This drug was not like the polio vaccine it was more like a flue shot. Matter of fact nothing about that shot was proven. I cannot hurt myself on purpose. Sorry I cant hurt myself even if it is the LAW.
My reasoning was put into a letter that I made available to everyone in my congregation.
To whom it may concern,
Mesquite Worship Center is an Evangelical Bible-based church. As such, we place a strong emphasis on the teaching of the Bible. We encourage our members to read and live by the Bible’s teachings.
As such we believe that abortion breaks the 6th commandment of Moses. (Ex. 20:13) We believe that life begins at conception. (Psalm 139:13) We believe that it is wrong to profit off of another’s misfortune. (Luke 6:31) We also believe that it is reprehensible that any corporation or individual would profit financially off of the death of a human being. (Mark 8:36)
Since all 3 corporations that are producing the Covid-19 vaccine and its derivatives either used fetal stem cells in its research or production, we support the right of our members, who out of religious convictions, choose not to partake in its use.
Sincerely,
Rev. Duke G. Taber
Senior Pastor
Thank you, Reverend. It is good to know such a church exists and, I hope, thrives in the world today. Where are you, I would visit if I passed your way in my travels. Your message is as clear as a Burning Bush. I live that.
God bless you and your congregation!
Mesquite NV. You would be more than welcome.
I found you online, I just this last year left Winnemucca and McDermitt behind, but I travel there often still.
When Operation Warp Speed was announced, and the operating mechanism of the MRNA shots was trumpeted across the fruited plain, I immediately thought something was wrong: Why did we need something injected that would (1) turn our tissues and cells into spike protein factories and (2) prime our immune systems to fight a virus that was already mutating? I’m no molecular biologist. But it just seemed nonsensical to me on both counts.
In addition, as an autoimmune patient (and autoimmunity has nearly killed me many times over), there was no way I was going to let a “vaccine” hijack my already-dysfunctional immune system.
The passage of time only confirmed my misgivings. The absolute toxicity of the spike protein, ADE, original antigenic sin and other emerging problems have shown OWS and the mRNA misadventure to be possibly the worst medical disaster in the history of the world.
I am one of the 27% who has personally lost someone to these shots.
No vaccine. In mid February of 2020, when covid mania was massive, I read some statistics. Despite all the hype, I read that the survival rate was greater than 98% (and has since increased). That raised some red flags. Then, after reading the CDC website’s page saying it did not recommend masking because of its ineffectiveness and then seeing that recommendation changed for no stated reason, I was really suspicious. Combine that with the fact that the last time I had the flu, around 7 years ago, was also the list time I got the flu shot, I trusted no one. Then seeing how the “pandemic” was being justified for altering election laws, I knew the fix was in. Finally, after the myocarditis risk was known, we solicited a doctor’s advice on getting the vaccine for a family member with minor hear issues and the answer was “yes, *for the benefit of society*”. I knew we were in the midst of mass hysteria the likes of which I have never seen.
Two in my family have tested positive for covid, but none of us have had anything more than what would be considered a typical cold in the past three years. Though this has all been very disturbing, I don’t resent the vaccine makers that much. For all we know, they made an honest attempt at helping society. I do however, have seething hatred for anyone imposing a vaccine or mask mandate and I want them to be punished *severely*.
The law governing medications requires a risk/reward explanation. All promotion must detail possible side effects as well as possible benefits. Every medication carries some degree of risk. I made the decision not to consider the vaccine until a clear advantage over possible risk became clear. It never came.
I never believed that supposed pandemic was as bad as the powers that be made it out to be. I relied on my own immune system to protect me. I was already on a strong vitamin protocol, and it turns out it already had all of the aspects of the Zelenko protocol. In my over 55 development, I’m the only person I know of that hasn’t had the jab, and I haven’t been sick. As more information has come out, I’m glad I followed my intuition. I’m an avid reader of CTH, and I watch Warroom regularly.
I absolutely refused the clot shots ~ it was clear to me early on that something was terribly wrong. Thanks to Alex Jones (who is rarely wrong), his guest Dr. Francis Boyle concerning the gain of function research evident in SARS COV2, and Dr. Chris Martenson who did an excellent series of weekly videos concerning the ‘pandemic’ and then the ‘vaccines’, we were saved from this disaster. My oldest, sadly, was not saved, as the Univ. of Texas system required the shot in their return to campus initiative. My University also required it for faculty and researchers, but thanks be to God, I happened to be out on disability for 6 months recovering from surgery and so was not forced into it. Had it been a ‘normal’ time for me, I probably would have either quit or negotiated a work from home only position which, they would probably have acquiesced to or face returning quite a lot of grant money. This is too much detail, really, but share it to convey my determination to avoid their poison shots.
Over all, it was a close call for 3 of us, and the bastards may yet claim my oldest. If this proves out, my bucket list will sadly include revenge ~ time will tell.
BTW, I had a dear friend who was a cancer survivor and faculty at Arkansas State that died from an aggressive return of his cancer… I am reasonably certain that because the University encouraged the vaccine, he took it, and the shot reduced his immune system resulting in his death.
I do not trust one single thing the gov told us about covid.
I have to add one more thing. Early on, my wife and I really tried to convince close friends and family not to take the jabs. They were all scared NOT TO TAKE THE JAB. The government had a full-court press of panic propaganda going.
Now, even though we have lost several close friends to sudden deaths, we carry no guilt because we really tried to warn people. We are humans…not God. If people have no discernment thru faith in the Almighty, there is a limit to what we can influence others to do.
Those who shunned friends and family who chose not to be stampeded into the jabs should be ashamed of themselves and deserve not to have a connection with those of us who wisely refused.
I could not agree with you more!
I did not believe the virus was that serious, I am healthy, and I am also normally skeptical of govt. To me, the pandemic felt like a way to bring down the President, like him or not. So, I was skeptical. It all seemed so coordinated and scripted; the media, narrative, dissing other medical options, the takedown of the President. Once they started talking about mandates, then I knew that I was not going to get it.
Then, my 38yr old sister-in-law got the vax and had a pulmonary embolism later that same day and died alone in her house.
I could never overcome the severe case of cognitive dissonance I had when, on the one hand, we were told that we absolutely, positively, for the good of all mankind had to get the shot, but on the other hand, our borders were wide open and no one seemed to care that the thousands of illegal immigrants coming across weren’t vaccinated. It seemed like an obvious con job to me.
re: “I could never overcome the severe case of cognitive dissonance”
Their arguments fell apart for me when the criuse ship Diamond Princess didn’t have the HIGH predicted ‘casualty’ number that the experts expected …
And when Neil Ferguson had to admit he snuck out during lockdowns to see his mistress.🙄Oh, and Fauci said if you really couldn’t refrain from hooking up with someone, go ahead but just be careful.🙄🙄 They obviously didn’t believe their own dire predictions.
I didn’t take it because they told me I had to.
My husband and I both took the first shot offered by our county. I felt awful that night and for two weeks afterward. His symptoms were mild, as always. I never went back for part two. He did not either after seeing what I was going through. I am so sad that just after my first shot that we pressure our adult son to get his first shot. He was at that time the father of two preschool children and we believe the stories. Never again! No shots of any kind. We’ll deal with the aftermath and take preventative supplements and exercise. Shout out to Dr Malone. Hope this helps with your research.
First reason….the vaccine was tested with aborted fetal tissue by all the companies and used in the vaccine by some of them. So faith based beliefs would not allow myself to be injected with those horrific ingredients!
2nd reason….most vaccines are tested for 20 or more years before release so I did not want to be a guinea pig!
Ended up getting covid and got monoclonal antibodies from donated blood injected under my skin and got better. Now I have natural antibodies as well. When I had a blood test to check my antibodies a year later, the scale was between 100 and 700 to be considered safe…I was 1700!!! Now people are dropping dead from heart problems (which was symptom of the vaccine) and I worry for all my family that chose to get it. To each his/her own, but don’t force people.
For future reference, Karen, it is my understanding that the monoclonals are compromised with fetal cells, too, particularly (and maybe only) those that end in “ab.” Obviously, verify it independently in case I misunderstood or am misremembering.
Never taken a flu shot…58 MikieWifey no, 87 year old Mom no…basically when the government is promoting (pushing) something we go the opposite way. We eat right, exercise, sleep well, etc. (Mom smokes)…no shots. Both my wife and I had jobs that did not require us to receive a shot for employment…. Son and daughter and law, one shot taken, due to employment…
I was in Hong Kong in 2003 when another Chinese virus was all the rage…fellow employees rushed home I stayed and enjoyed myself….
I did not get the covid shot, and neither did anyone in my immediate family. It made no rational sense to get an experimental injection to any of us. Many of my close friends and relatives did get the vaccine. One cousin faced being terminated from her job of 17 years if she did not get the injections. Another loved one in his 70’s died of a massive heart attack a few days after he received a covid booster and flu shot on the same day in the Fall of 2021. Heartbreaking.
Not Vaxed. I have followed George Webb for some time and he talked about the virus leaks in Oct. 2019 at the world military games in Aug.- Sept. 2019. Many of the military got sick at the games and went back to their countries. Our gov’t said, the virus came from a market. (That didn’t make sense. ) Then there was the BSers talking masks to stop it, which were proven not to work in 1918. To0 many things didn’t follow common sense. “They stated the vax was experimental !!!!! Why would I take that. How many times has the gov’t experimented on people, too many times.
My husband is a Pulmonary Doc. He took care of people, who were very sick with covid during the whole thing. He followed South Korea’s treatment (they were infected ahead of the US ) that used Hydroxychloroquine with success. Then “they” told hospitals they had to use remdesivir. He was so upset, said it didn’t work. He went back to hydroxychloroquine and the hospital pharm. started refusing his orders. He had a to fight with pharmacy for the hydrox- and they gave in. That was a BIG RED flag. We saw that India was using hydrox- with success. ( Gates had given them vaccines before and many died, so they said, no thanks) Then “THEY” started saying people who got infected wouldn’t have natural immunity. That made NO SENSE ! We did not and do not trust “Them”.
I am unjabbed. I got covid when it first arrived couple yrs ago. After I got over it I thought well I have natural immunity for x period of time and will use this time to observe and learn. I was not anti vac, quite agnostic really First thing I observed was nat’l immunity was never brought up. It disappeared from data. Over time I read more and started to turn against it all Im 67 and only one in family unvacced despite all the pressure People waking up now to biggest medical crime in history.
because the science is NOT settled.
Saw the data coming out showing death rate sub 1%. Affected mostly elderly and sick. Always follow the precautionary principle.
Early on they were lying about Covid. When Gov. idiot from NY wanted 45 K vents and the Javis center and hospital ship were not used and Dr Flemming came out with his stuff, I said no way. Dr Kory convince me it was a no go and with my dad recovering from Covid in Nov. 2020, I knew it was a mess. Staying informed was key.
MSM then – ‘ There is NO link between AUTISM and vaxxines ‘
MSM now – ‘ Welllll ….. there might be a link ‘
but you’re still a conspiracy theorist if you try to think for yourself …
Easy decision
1st Trust in God. If it was my time to be judged He would take me in what way He chose
2nd I followed the science. Since when is altering one God’s given DNA better then what those people cooked up in the kitchen in 3 months
Let it be known I am not anti-vax.
I do believe you should be able to make your own choice regarding the “medi cations” you take let alone being forced to take.
Had it, it sucked, glad I had it, and moved on.
I did not take the jab. The entire story of Wuhan, the lockdowns and mask mandates were just a little too hinky. I watched neighbors and some family living in absolute fear. They couldn’t get their shots fast enough. Some are no longer with us and others have had serious health issues. I would not recommend any vaccines and would certainly discourage taking any unnecessary pharmaceuticals. I highly recommend fresh air and sunshine.
I did not get the shot. I did not trust it, and since I was being told I had to get it by the government, media, and my place of work, I would not comply. I lied and said I got it.
During the annual “flu season”, my wife usually gets a flu shot. Me, on the other hand… nope. No particular reason, except that I very rarely get the flu, and oh yeah… I hate needles! 😉 But did I have any reason to suspect the flu shot was a bad thing, or that the people behind it were offering it for nefarious reasons? NO.
But this COVID “vaccine” feels very, very different. Not only did I obviously not get it, but neither did my wife. And I didn’t even need to try to convince her. She was just as loudly opposed to it as I was. Her doctor even asked her if she was gonna get the shot, and when we both said no she asked my wife in particular, “But I know you get the flu shot most years, what’s the difference?” We both explained that the difference is THIS one is being pushed by evil people, the same ones who have destroyed so many lives by pushing the lockdowns and restrictions. Surprisingly she didn’t even argue with us, just kind of said “Oh, I see, okay.” Not sure if she just didn’t want to argue, had been ordered not to push it, or maybe (hopefully) she even had her own doubts.
So anyway I guess that answers the question of WHY we didn’t take it. It wasn’t so much the concern over health risks. Because after all, if the Wu Flu was as deadly as some made it out to be, an experimental vaccine might be worth the risk. But since we did not, and do not believe 95% of what the scumbags have been telling us — including the total number of deaths attributed to COVID, we think that’s VASTLY inflated — we most certainly do NOT trust them and their cute little “vaccine”. (And no, I’m not particularly happy Trump endorsed it either, though at least he adamantly opposed FORCING people to get it.)
Several reasons, really. But the biggest one is my inherent distrust of pharmaceutical/chemical companies. My husband of 25 years died of leukemia that was chemically-caused (not genetic) after using Roundup, on the job, for 12 years. I was present when the rep told us “This stuff is so safe you could practically drink it”. Of course, he didn’t demonstrate its safety. lol Combined with the lack of testing on what is new technology and the immunity from lawsuits given to the companies producing the jab, well, it was a hard NO from me. I was ostracized from groups I had been a part of for several years, at first, since they seemed to think I must automatically have Covid, being unvaccinated. It never made sense to me, but…
Now, I’m considered a part of those groups once again, with the members treating me like nothing happened. It’s been very difficult to forget and forgive, but I’m trying.
Yes….in March of 2021, I got the 2 Phizer shots. At the time, that seemed a prudent thing to do.
Since then, both I and everyone else have learned a lot. #1 fact is that the jab DOES NOT prevent infection or transmission. #2 is the fact that the jab has lots of potential and nasty side effects, to include fatal. #3 is that, to date — while the “experts” claim that the jab DOES lessen the impact of COVID, there are still no evidence based SCIENTIFIC data to support this claim.
No way no how will I ever willingly get a booster.
Thanks for asking… we drank the koolaid for two weeks and I have cursed my poor judgement ever since. We did not take the shots, my wife and I, but some of our kids and spouses have, so we have a mixed family that still can gather for a meal and kibbitz, we are blessed. I read, pondered, consulted and checked in with people connected to the medical field, surgeons, couple PA’s and GP’s. Our decision was the shots were BS, it appears we were accurate. I’m self employed but my wife was nearly terminated. We will never know why she was not. I have never been tested nor do I know if I have had The Chinese Flu.
over the years I saw what big pharma did to my mother. Had her addicted to every prescription drug on the market and NEVER healed a thing. I’ve also seen what the government has done to our country over the years and did not trust either one from the start. I am for a limited government that works for the people and NOT in coohoots with big pharma to mandate anything for us. No thanks today and tomorrow. I had to fight and sign a religious exemption form but had already done that several times when they wanted to jab my daughters with everything that came up once they hit middle school. No thanks,
I don’t get the flu shot and I certainly wasn’t going to get the Covid jab. I supplemented with elderberry, zinc, extra C and D3, K, etc. I did get Covid but it was mild. My cousin didn’t get it either nor did her supervisor. She was one of 4 at her place of employment, along with the supervisor, who got Covid. The two who had the jab were much more sick than my cousin and her supervisor. Coincidental maybe but maybe not.
I was never that worried about getting covid. Then after I got covid (right around the time the mRNA vaccine first became available) there was no need to get the vaccine because I understand natural immunity.
First, since I knew it was rushed and didn’t follow the normal 2 to 3 year testing phase, I took a wait-and-see stance. Then I started doing lots of research and was appalled to discover how many aborted babies were used to get tissue to use in the formulation of the so-called you-know-what. Then I found out the tissue was living tissue. So I had a religious objection early on. Then I grew very suspicious that dissenting Dr voices and scientist were being suppressed. Why? I always ask, “Why?” Then normal citizens who questioned the drug were being censored. Then I got a very pushy letter from my employer insinuating that anyone who didn’t take the shot was not thinking clearly and urging us all to be injected. We did not receive a mandate, however, for which I was grateful. I got real pressure from my daughter, her husband, and the extended family. While I love to please my daughter, I told her emphatically, “No.” She was furious. Every member of my extended family ended up getting the shot. However, after a year, I didn’t hear a peep out of any family member by way of pressure. Daughter nor her family have mentioned it again. Nor has my company.
PS. Then I started reading the VAERS report. Precious Lord! Grateful I didn’t get it.
I did not get the shot, not enough information and felt it was hastily rushed to market.
I never get the flu shot either.
Neither seem to work or provide any protection but just my opinion
With a low risk from covid, it was an easy decision for me. Got an exemption from employer who really pushed it.
But, I respect others decisons.
The still small voice told me not to
God bless you, Icarus. Stay low, my friend!
Amen!
I am soon to be 79. In 2020 my friends began to get Covid, at which time they told me that the doctors just told them to start taking multiple vitamins and minerals and stay home. After consulting with my doctor about the quantities, I started taking those in June of 2020 and only wore masks where I was told I had to wear them. Our little town never really got into the masks much. Like others, I did not like being forced to take the shot. To my knowledge I have never had Covid even yet today and I am very glad I did not get the shot. My friends and family did not, and do not today, discuss whether anyone did or did not get the shot. To each his/her own.
Why I didn’t take the jab.
1 autoimmune thrombocytopenia since childhood.
2 Pfizer is the most Criminal Corp estate the Mex Cartels, La Cosa Nostra, or the 1939 Nazi Party. They have been cited over 80 time in 20 years ( every 3 months) for nearly $11 Billion.
Their biggest fine was for Bextra, $2.3 billion total, $1.3 Billion CRIMINAL fines.
3 plenty of data out there on VEARS Database, lots of European, Asian, and African research that wasn’t censored on Adverse effects and lack of real testing.
4 EAU meant no liability if it kills me
5 this is the killer.
The HEK283 cell sample used for creating the Pfizer lab is Human Embriotic Kidney Culture no. 283.
The 283rd culture.
There were 282 before it and no telling how many after.
These were not abortions.
The children were supposed to be aborted, but their parents were convinced to give them up, they were usually taken by C-section, and the tissues desired were harvested from the live baby via vivisection. Catholic Lay media investigative reporters found this. The parents of HEK283 are still alive in Denmark. She was a baby girl, abortionsts convinced the parents to allow a near term c-Section and cut her up for the tissue samples.
I’ll ever take a CV19 vaccine or any other drug derived from such monstrous activities, reminiscent of Nazi medical experiments.
Sundance, what a grand shaking of the Tree you did here – I think you flushed out all the lurkers, I see so many names and comments that I have not seen before. Thank you for asking!
Really!!! I’ve been glued to the chair going through a huge list of pending comments. 🙂
you will be working overtime tonite for sure! God bless, Ad Rem
Blessings in return Jeff!
I didn’t take it because I have a genetic rare disease and I felt the risk of taking an experimental shot with no historical outcome was too risky. Nobody knew what this therapy would do 8 or 10 years down the road and I didn’t want to be a guinea pig as I already have enough health issues without voluntarily adding more.
We are in Texas. My spouse is in the medical field, who also has multiple scientific research papers published. And is way smarter than I am, and also was on an organ transplant list, and was failing. There was no “you will get the shot or won’t get an organ” but it was implied. Spouse is employed by the federal government, didn’t really have a choice. also got Covid from me in between shots. My children, myself, and my ancient mother in law, have all decided not to get the shot, which my spouse supports.
As panic was gripping the country and world, my spouse kept reading and researching. Made the choice to roll the dice in the hopes an organ would come through, and there’d be treatments/therapeutics to reverse shot damage.
Spouse now takes a whole bunch of supplements daily, and ivermectin weekly. Along with immunosuppressants for organ transplant that happened. Of all of us, I took 6 weeks to get over Covid, mother in law had a cough, children were fine. I worry about my spouse, who continues to research studies and publications for things that may help improve his life and longevity. I loathe those who mandated shots for anyone. I pray for forgiveness, but there is nothing good in them. My spouse’s lot: one of the highest death and adverse reactions reported. There will be accountability.
Live Free or Die
This may sound flippant , but it is meant in all truth …… the MOVIES said the scam was coming.
They TELL you in advance.
Outbreak
28 Days Later
Contagion
12 Monkeys
you get the idea ….. ask yourself what the ” current ” movies tell us ?
Yes, but not just the movies.
People have very short memories. Rewatch the London 2012 Olympics ceremony and all the occult symbolism. Then watch the Swiss train tunnel opening ceremony again.
In March/2020 I was looking to see how far out a vaccine was, I was looking around in the Event 201 website and found this, second page last two paragraphs. https://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/our-work/exercises/event201/event201-resources/mcm-fact-sheet-191009.pdf What I found alarmed me, so I haven’t taken it because of information off the Event 201 website. Take a look for yourself and see
I am now 87, probably 85 at the time. I took 2 Moderna dots when they were first available. My daughter is in healthcare on the executive side. She lined me up when the first shots came out. I got Covid and ended up in the hospital with double pneumonia very seriously ill. After reading lots of opinions, I decided natural immunity was strong. I was exposed to Covid by my granddaughter and taking care of my son for three weeks in my home with Covid and did not get Covid again. I have been urged by my daughter and others to get a booster but have refused.
I resent that my government
telling I must take something in my body.
I am 76 and got covid last December and was in intensive care for a week, very ill. After consulting with my specialist I did not take the Shot…he said I would get covid whether I took the shot or not and he would rather I did not have all the “unknown garbage” that’s in the “experimental gene therapy”. My only health concern is cardiomyopathy of my heart…it did attack my heart but I made it through and I am doing fine. I have a gene mutation and have always reacted poorly to any type of shot, which was another consideration. I used natural essential oils and homeopathic remedies to recover…did not have long covid. I knew that there was something wrong because they were intimidating people to get the shot through fear….every govt was doing that. Now, the news is full of young healthy people dropping dead…unknown death syndrone…yeah, sure.
Your physician is a gem.
I worked for a large consumer goods company and was familiar with the safety testing required for minor formula changes to regulated products. In my judgment there was not sufficient testing completed for me to consider taking the vaccine early on (was too experimental). Then the government started pushing it not only on at risk populations but across the board. That coupled with the silencing of voices arguing for preventative therapies and my suspicions began to run high. Never took it and don’t intend to. Instead my husband & I began a preventative therapy – one that is a broad-based anti-viral that we continue to take weekly.
