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.

I have had a flu shot. I have no fear of death as a Christian, so the FAUXiFLU never scared me. Simple as that
I have never had a flu shot; pardon the typo above
Trust Meeeeee…….
‘“How I Learned to Love the New World Order”
Article by Sen. Joseph R. Biden, Jr. in The Wall Street Journal (April 1992)
Heh. “… dog-faced pony soldier … “
Neither of us have gotten any of the pseudo-vaccines. At the very beginning of 2020 we were concerned about the early reporting and the chaos resulting. We were located in a rural area where there was an early out break. I should say that we travel full time in the Intermountain West and are most often in rural areas.
I am NOT a lawyer, a scientist, or a medical professional but the Good Lord gave me, like everyone else, the ability to think and reason for myself. I am very good at researching, taking in information and analyzing that info and coming to critically reasoned conclusions. Very often others disagree with my conclusions but far more often than not the conclusions I reach turn out to be correct in the end. God is good to all of us.
Starting with the change in the reporting systems in March 2020 that had been in use for decades I realized that every standard of science and medicine was being revised and/or redefined for the CCP-Virus but not for anything else. Then Fauci lied about Hydroxychloroquine when compared to the 2005 study he funded and reported about. The government, medical and scientific establishment lost all credibility through everything they did and said during the spring and summer of 2020.
In September 2020 the first info regarding the pseudo-vaccines started coming out from Pfizer and other sources. Even as a layman I could read the info provided and see that there were big holes and issues with the data presented and I expected they would never get approval or EUA. The mRNA drugs obviously altered the DNA and the immune system but there were no long term studies on these effects. There were no mortality numbers included with the trial studies. The trial studies were disbanded before they were completed. And on and on with more issues. I was harshly criticized on ‘conservative’ social media for raising objections.
With zero trust or faith in the government, science, and medical institutions and absolutely no belief in either the efficacy or safety of the pseudo-vaccines there was no way I was going to get vaccinated. We live a pretty healthy life style, boosted some immune support supplements, and live a fairly isolated life style mostly in rural areas. So I did not and do not think we were at high risk of exposure never mind serious illness.
There are two points where we may or may not have had the CCP-Virus but we have no idea whether or not that is the case because we have never been “tested”. Due to the areas where we travel I have only worn a mask 3 times since this all began. Twice in the first month and once for a dentist appointment. We did get kicked out of a couple of stores and restaurants that we attempted to give our business to but otherwise have had few issues with our refusal to comply with anyone else’s medical mandates.
As I said God has been good to us. He allows us to travel to smaller rural communities where most people do still believe in individualism, personal responsibility, and letting others live their own lives. He gave us the ability to reason, think, and analyze and we insist on doing so even though every institution insists that we must rely on ‘experts’. He gave me a job working remotely starting 10 years before the CCP-Virus even started.
BTW, not ‘anti-vax’ but certainly a vaccine sceptic. Four kids in my family and we all got mumps, measles, and chicken pox one after another over a period of a few weeks (my parents had taken their 1st long vacation in years and missed much of that). Got the polio vaccine and one other at some point. Only got one flu shot and got the flu right after. The science and evidence seems to indicate that there is some correlation between the modern vaccine schedules and a lot of illnesses and problems. Not likely to take any vaccine for anything again and trying to avoid medications and doctors as much as possible for as long as possible.
God is good to each and everyone of us if we will just take a minute or two from our over busy schedules to think about that and then bless Him for what he has already provided.
Thanks for the testimony. Self reliance, as you indicate, is an invaluable trait. And do your homework instead of reacting in fear. So many failed to do any homework on the shot.
My instinct was, it was rushed and not properly tested. However, my family did against my advice. So far so good, hopefully they did not receive a bad batch.
I interpret the picture that Sundance posted at the end of his article as “The road less traveled”. I took that road, (with regard to the shots) as I often do in life. I have always been someone who questions things and wants to “dig deeper”. I try to avoid medicine & doctors, except when there is no other possible solution. God is my guide in all things. I trust Him for the discernment to know what and when.
I am so thankful that I was online and reading, reading, reading as the whole sordid covid tale unfolded. I concluded right away that it was 99% recoverable and that there were products I could get as preventatives and as treatments.
Most of my family and close friends did not take the shots. The couple that did, have had no boosters and are pretty healthy. Thank you, Lord!
The few friends that took the shots have had mixed results. Some very sick, (including cancer) and some faired ok. We don’t discuss it, but I think they are fully aware now with all of the deaths and terrible things happening to people getting the boosters.
My prayers go out to all.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Landslide: your post brought this tune from Laren Alaina to mind: Road Less Traveled
I did not take the shot. I am 81 with several co-morbidities but my decision was an extension of not taking a flu shot or other vaccines since back in mid 90s. I always thought of this covid thing as a hoax and early on let my friends know. I have lost more than 20 friends and we don’t even talk. I lost a friend of more than 40 years last year due to a heart attack? and was not allowed to attend his memorial since I wasn’t vaxxed. My daughter will not let me talk about my positions on the covid thing. I get out once a week with a small group on our main street with placards that say, Do Not Comply, No Mandates, and others. The sign I like says “Live Not By Lies” but was told people driving by probably don’t understand. It is from Solzhenitsyn.
Principles matter. Be well, sir!
I got the J&J vaccine in April of 2021 on pressure from my husband and adult children. One and done. I have avoided the mRNA based vaccine due to lack of long term testing results. No boosters to date.
If you can say you are vaccinated, no one asks if you are boosted. The topic now rarely comes up. Most people realize the vaccine is not effective in stopping transmission or getting the current covid variant. Many people still get the boosters including my husband. Go figure. Each individual must make there own evaluations I avoid the subject if possible.
I live just north of Los Angeles. I work as a consultant for some health care organizations but they have not asked for vaccine proof from consultants only current employees because the state of CA health department requires it.
Hiring and retaining staff in LA (Everywhere) is super challenging. Everyone wants to work from home now.
Don’t assume the J&J is better because it isn’t mRNA. It’s actually a viral vector virus, that does not replicate, but contains the same Spike Protein instructions not in mRNA (single strand), but in DNA (double strand) code. They do this by hijacking a chimpanzee virus for J&J. A great explanation is here: https://nakedemperor.substack.com/p/newly-obtained-astrazeneca-documents
Hi Redwall,
Unfortunately, I also took the J&J. You might see where I wrote about refusing any Covid vax for my kids, but I used the same logic as you when I decided to get the J&J: “one and done”.
You might want to look up your batch at
howbadismybatch.com
Now, I wish that I had not taken the J&J. If I could remove it from my body, I would.
I did not take the jab. The recovery rate for my age group is over 99%. I have never had a flu shot and I didn’t see any reason to start taking a shot for a virus that I thought my body could handle.
I trusted my gut and I read an article early on describing what is now happening. Long story short the shot causes blood clots which in turn stop the flow of blood throughout the body which leads to organ failure. If you have health conditions before they get worse. There will be more people dying suddenly and it breaks my heart. We were lied to about mortality and fear was pushed and look where we are now. Sad state of our country right now.
Good for you – you did your homework. So many didn’t and just reacted out of fear.
I did not get vaxxed. I’m 61, fit, retired, live in very rural area. Got Covid in March 2020 from a farm/ranch hand. Felt like I had cold or allergies.
The risk of a rushed-to-market, untested vaccine never made sense to me. My mother and sister (leftists) harassed me constantly. My reasoning was incomprehensible to them. They went from concerned for my safety, to repeated firm pressure, to hysterically citing false information, to calling me a conspiracy theorist, to telling me I was not welcome home for Christmas.
They have since calmed down, but have neither admitted that they were wrong nor apologized. I went home for Christmas (surprised them). They were happy to see me and never mentioned Covid.
I worked in the nutritional supplement field for years so I treat most things naturally and was already very leary of the FDA and govt organizations seeing what happened behind the scenes in regulating supplements and so forth in my field. Most of my family were dead set against taking the vax, myself included. We are all pretty alternative and not super trusting of people who know what’s best for us, I guess.
My husband and my 94 year old father really wanted to get it but my husband’s doctor did not recommend it and my Dad decided against it. We all got Covid in July including daughter, 2 toddlers, my parents. Very mild and my husband and 94 year old Dad recovered the fastest.
It didn’t really affect friendships. Most people expected us not to get it. I wish we were more outspoken about why we chose not to but we just let others make their own decisions. Now I fear outcomes may be worse than expected.
I haven’t been vaccinated since the year JFK was murdered. I tend to eschew the medical community in general; started in the 60’s by reading the Merck Manual as a young person and went from there. So far, still healthy even after decades in heavy industry. I suspect I’ll die of lead poisoning, if you get my drift.
80 years old…American!!!Love Trump!
Stunned by the lockdowns. Started researching Fauci, need I say more?
Good for you! Homework beats fear response every time.
Never trust the government.!
It’s just about that simple, isn’t it. Until government can demonstrate honesty. . . .
Thats right. And never trust the drug companies etc.
Always get a second or third opinion.
I was an early Covid case (had it when everyone was hoarding toilet paper). The TP frenzy was my first clue that “the masses” may not be the best source for ground truth.
Fast forward, and people were fighting for the shot- I even know a firefighter who was arrested for stealing a vial, and my family members literally lied to get in the front of the line for it. That felt like an extension of the TP frenzy. It really didn’t add up to me. Rational people don’t do that…but frightened people certainly do. I was not frightened because Covid, for me and my family was a flu without the vomit. I was perplexed.
Then I saw a billboard…. “do you part, get vaccinated”, and I KNEW the tone was about to shift. I darn well knew it. (I honestly don’t mind being proven wrong, but my Spidy Senses told me I was sane in a sea of madness). Lo and behold, the tone did shift… save grandma, help get her immunity, etc. But what about me with immunity though my illness? “You can’t ask that.” Wait, what? WHY can’t I ask that very reasonable question?
Months went by, and Google, Twitter, heck, the whole universe was entirely unified. Not a single question was allowed. The only question that was allowed to live online was “where can I get it?”
I hoisted the BS flag then and there. This isn’t the world I know, SOMETHING isn’t correct here. Then, the unprecedented speed with which it received “approval” along with the mandatory waiver that had to be signed to get it…no, I’m out.
It felt too desperate to be something beneficial for me. So desperate that there simply had to be more to the story. I didn’t know what that “more” was, but I’d be damned if I’d put something in me without the information I needed, and without signing a waiver of my rights. I’m pretty sure that’s why I served in the military- to preserve the ideals this nation was founded upon, and I don’t recall manipulation to submit to medical treatments with a waiver of rights to align with those ideals.
Then the MANDATES. That sent my hesitance to a completely different level. F that and the horse it rode in on.
The more I’m forced, the more I clam up. If it was that beneficial, there would have been no need to shift the tone- we’d all still be clamoring for it. Notice how no one is mandating toilet paper purchases….
re: “The TP frenzy was my first clue that “the masses” may not be the best source for ground truth.”
I’ve got pictures of those empty rows in Kroger where TP used to be stacked on the shelves!!!
Amen to that. Mandates?! In America?! F- that.
The pressure coming from everywhere all at once coming from government and corporations, and the over the top bellicose screeching, didn’t match the CDC’s own published survival rates for all age groups of those infected with COVID. It all seemed coordinated and contrary to CDC’s own published survival rates. Unlike the vast majority of people, I did not PRETEND not to see those published CDC survival rates. When I showed CDC survival rates to people who were vaccinated, they became angry and dismissed the published data from the very same agency they were relying on which was bizarre to me.
So many refused to see the data & do homework. Bizarre!
For me,
Based on ridiculous lockdowns, masking , people reporting on others , I was already ticked off.
I am not an early adopter of anything…not TV, cars, phones.
I saw the history of the mRNA and how they had not worked in the past, knew that real vaccines take 5-10 yrs min to test and create and these shots were being pushed in less than a year.
When they started coercing, banning, threatening, I knew I didn’t want what was being sold.
I also followed independent media/people and started hearing about side effects pretty early on.
While I had most family members take at least one, no one asked us or demanded any info. We had our holidays, etc. Still ticked that college age kids took it..they are most at risk from the shot, not cv19.
My dad took it J&J early on and vomited / dehydrated for a week. Home health came to give IV fluids and said this was happening alot.
Most of my family took it because they thought it would help, I wouldn’t call them sheep, necessarily, but they clearly bought into the narrative or fear to some extent..the only one that has had more than one or two shots has had covid 3x in the past 1 1/2 yrs.
My DH wanted to but said he was 60% afraid of me and 40% seeing the crap data…LOL
Luckily had our own business so weren’t forced to take it, didn’t try to travel except in state.
Only problem I had was dentist demanding to know Vax status which I refused to give. Went last week and they are no longer asking,
In mid 2021 primary doc social media acct mentioned the shots maybe 3 times. By 2022, no mention, my guess is they saw the issues with it.
Also, primary care did a flu vs covid recently (differences & meds). Said for cv19 throw anything you can or have at it..thought that was interesting.
Started with the 15 days to stop the spread and the declaring of local businesses as essential or not. Then I wondered who is this little bastard standing up there telling me he’s some sort of expert. I thought an expert on something we’ve not experienced before, who is this jerk? So I dug into his background and decided then to doubt everything he had to say based on his involvement in the AIDS epidemic. Not many who came down with that were happy with him.
That essential piece of the puzzle set me off. That was the start of me planting my feet against the recommendations from the government. That was flat wrong, you protect the vulnerable and let everyone else live their lives maybe with a caution. But you don’t shut down the whole country with who knew who deciding who was essential and who wasn’t.
Then the talk of a “vaccine” on the horizontal. A vaccine for a virus, I thought not happening. Virus’s mutate so that was a pipe dream to my way of thinking. Those decisions took a toll on my marriage, sparked a huge fallout with my wife, her accusing me of trying to kill my grandkids. Yeah, that broke the camels back for me, my feet were then firmly planted and I started studying on everything covid.
My friends and some neighbors started asking me my stance on all things covid and I shared every one. Held no punches and shared the things I was learning. Broke off with my dentist and dr over their demand for masking. I had studied mask use for decades. One thing I knew, makers of masks say plainly if ya were a beard a mask is probably useless. I wear a beard and have since my early days. I paint and know if ya don’t have a great seal to a mask your nostrils are going to be whatever color you’re spraying. I wasn’t stupid on masks. And these were great masks, not an N95 or worse.
So I didn’t come into the covid scare with no knowledge. It just happened the things they were recommending I had some insight into. Though I’m just a person who studies things I’m involved in. Not a genius, more a cave man. Not to mention I had been studying the recommendations of drugs for various conditions from my dr. for some years. Needless to say I wasn’t on the same page he was. You could guess what drugs he would be in favor of just by watching tv commercials. And he had free samples of most. So I was already skeptical at the beginning, way more so now. If you’re wondering, no, I didn’t get even one shot. Further more my marriage has changed, things aren’t the same as they were before. Though I’m still married. Some friendships got strained but I didn’t lose any over it.
Ya – Fauci and AIDS was a precursor ‘debacle’.
Sorry to hear about the marriage struggles. You’re a good man. The results of the jab will be obvious in the next few years and she’ll come to thank you for standing your ground.
Because I swim against the current; I always have. It has brought me misfortune, grief, fortune and relief.
and freedom and liberty….your reward for simply taking your own choices. Bravo!
For me it was fairly simply…it was a government mandated blanket medical command for all people…what part of that sounds like a good idea?
Therefore I did not take the Vax.
Was that supposed to be “I think, Therefore I did not take the Vax.” ?
I’ve thought about this, quite a bit in the last couple of years.
Its actually a pretty simple answer that Believer’s generally get; non-believers, almost never.
It’s basically Psalm 139. My days were numbered before any of them ever came into being.
However, I must admit a bit of a contradiction: I do take a yearly flu-shot. Of course, my work-place requires it, but I never really had an issue with that.
COVID was different.
I remember reading an article about 5-6 years ago where Bill Gates was predicting “a coming pandemic.”
I thought, “Man, that’s weird? What’s a wealthy computer-guy doing predicting a pandemic?”
But, as the years went by, and I gathered more understanding, it became so obviously apparent, “Oh! Bill Gates wants to rule the world, along with all his Davos buddies.” Huh? How about that? Seems like being super-wealthy would be enough?
But no, it’s same old story of pretty much of all of world history: the super-rich ruling over the peasants.
Anyway, connecting the dots, by the help of “the invisible hand” of The Holy Spirit, I said to myself, “This is weird! I’m not buying it! They’re trying to scare the s—- out of people. This is pure manipulation and deception.”
So, I started reading The Psalms EVERY. DAY! Starting trying to learn what it means to “take refuge in The Lord?”
Basically, gave the big middle-finger to these bunch of God-less, wicked, Satan-serving globalists, and the DC lackies they’ve clearly bought! Clearly!
Thank You Lord God… Maker of Heaven and Earth, for Your guidance and protection!!
I may be in this world, but by God’s mercy, through The Perfect Atonement, I’M NO LONGER OF IT!
Psalm 68:19-20
Wondered what to say and how to say it and how much to say and you just nailed it! I will ditto most of your answer if you don’t mind….it is the pithy thing to do. God gave my husband and I discernment through the Holy Spirit as we researched and we never felt this was the right way to go. We were shunned by several of our friends but what a great way to find out who your friends really are. We are 68 and 71 now….so no pressure to get the jab by work and under no circumstances did we or will we get the jab. Too much govt. propaganda, Fauci fraud, Birx BS but there was always dissenting voices albeit few at first like Dr. Atlas and Frontline doctors that supported our initial research….thx George…you said it perfectly!
I am the worst Christian in the world but everything you all are saying is spot on. I’ve posted previously that my soon to be 102 grandmom, my 6 mo old grandson, my seriously obese stepdad ALL had it. None of us ever had flu shots. Just practiced common sense. I love this thread. We are not alone in our thinking.
I am immune compromised and was told by an MD that the mrna vaccine would cause every cell in my body to become an immune cell priming the body for an immune system overload. This was early. Subsequently I heard other sources highlighting the danger of mrna tech including cytokine storm and other issues.
I did take the 1st 2 shots due to the belief at that time that anyone that has orbited the Sun 70 or more times should definitely take the shot. I also had a history of lung infections in my youth and early adulthood.
But I never had a booster shot despite the many official phone calls and e-mails telling me it is time. The truth had drifted in by then.
I have an autoimmune disease and had a severe reaction to the 2nd Shingrix vaccine. Showed me that I would have a problem with 2 shots close together so initially that is why I didn’t take it. Then I watched Robert Kennedy Jr. discuss his concerns in the summer of 2021. Did as much research as I could and became more and more convinced I wouldn’t touch it. My husband is a veteran and has had cancer and other health problems. He took first 2 because they scared the witts out of him. Summer of 2021 I told about everything I had found out, we watched different interviews and he did get any boosters. I am just praying he will be ok. Neither of us has had covid.
I never trusted the government, and if they tell me to do something I won’t, had covid, now immune, lived my life without fear, and have no regrets
I remember clearly hearing Lou Dobbs declaring adamantly in Early FEB 2020 that the govt needed to get a vaccine approved ASAP. My immediate response was no way in hell I’m taking a man made vaccine for a man made virus.
Even if the origins of the China Virus weren’t so suspicious, I would not have taken another vaccine of any kind because I’ve already had an adverse reaction to the tetanus shot several years ago. Heart inflammation, exercise intolerance, tachycardia, etc for the rest of my life. Very sad to see all the heart problems with this vax.
No one in my family got the shot. Almost all my friends and neighbors did. I couldn’t believe the fog people and doctors were in- and how most doctors were not doing early treatments of any kind.
Lou Dobbs drove me crazy in early 2020 with his constant calls for it to be called a Pandemic, so I made my husband turn him off.
Dobbs was the only thing my husband watched on TV & I didn’t watch anything.
We gave our TV away in 2020 & do not own one.
It makes it crazier when the people (like Lou) that you listen too so quickly go all in without ANY critical thoughts or discussion. Ughhh.
Good for you on TV. We’ve been without any cable service since early 2020 as well. Sure don’t need to pay for the propaganda!
I did not take the shots and neither did my husband or son who is 34. We are 74.
My husband says his reason is 8Kun where he surfs the internet daily.
I am a lifelong contrarian who never got out of the stage of endlessly asking “why?” As a trial lawyer I’ve took thousands of depositions where I asked, “what do you base that opinion on?” The hard sell made me more skeptical. There were never any answers that made sense.
The lockdowns, masks and social distancing seemed wrong and silly to me with no basis in biological science. I refused to wear a mask and by the time the vaccines came along I was convinced that these people did not know what they were doing and decided not for me.
My son claims his refusal is unrelated to ours. He did his own research on line and decided “no”.
I’ve been vehemently anti-vax for over 30 years
I think vaccines are satanic poison
For me, I believed from the beginning that it was too rushed – EUA; research on what is called to deep state now, my reading on the Illuminati over the years, the timing with the election and the theories being posed on this site and others. Watching people have weird reactions at the onset; me getting it bad subsequently reading early on that survivors had the best ‘natural’ immunity of all.
In an earlier, longer post I mention I had it in Aug-Sept 2020, and have had NOTHING, no ‘repeats’, no take-twos or anything like the one single bout of Covid-19 … and I had the full set of symptoms in AUg 2020 as well, low blood ox, gulping for air under exertion and mild pneumonia … I would say natural immunity WORKS, as we should well know.
Population control maniacs were pushing a ” Solution ”
“”This is a terrible thing to say. In order to stabilize world population, we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. It is a horrible thing to say, but it’s just as bad not to say it.””Jacques Cousteau in an interview with the UNESCO Courier for November 1991
I remember that – it was like finding out the Santa was a serial rapist.
It sounded fishy from the get go, I don’t trust the medical profession when all they want to do is fix it with a pill or jab. I’m a firm believer that our God given bodies are truly gifts from God (the great physician) and we are responsible to take care of them and what you put in them.
Since I’m a healthy person and they weren’t offering the safety risk there was no way that it made any since to take the jab. I always ask my doctor for the safety risks on any everything. 9 times out of 10 I find a healthy way to solve an issue.
The big red flag was that they kept saying it was safe and it didn’t matter if you had a side affect because it was worth it. Hmmm but where were the safety studies and why were they giving out incentives if you agreed to get jab, why were they discriminating against the unvaxxed, why did the unvaxxed have to wear masks and they didn’t? So many ridicules rules for me and all divisive.
sounded like it was all from the pit to me and I’m not having anything to do with it. God is good and He did not give us the spirit of fear. The fear tactics were blatant and I wasn’t falling for them. Amen and thank you Jesus
If from its discovery/patenting an average drug takes ten years or more to get brought to market, then the first mRNA vaccine developed within a few months and brought to market makes no sense, especially after all previous vaccination against coronaviruses had failed. I am old enough to remember the tragedy that Thalidomide caused.
I worked as an environmental engineer and realized that new chemicals or new enviromental stresses were the major cause of our new health problems. It takes time for our bodies to know how to defend against these new enviromental stresses. The MRNA injection was a new item and untested. Just as new electric cars are due to their EMF. Romans loved their lead dinner plates just as most love the injection and electric cars. I keep telling my friends not to drive their kids in the electric cars. So for me and my family no injection and no electric cars.
I didn’t take the shot because it was too fast. The rollout was similar to the swine flu vaccine that led to someone dying. Vaccines need to be tested in large populations for a few years before they are truly considered safe. I was not going to sway from this choice, regardless of the pressure.
I am an exterminator… that was considered “essential” work in Massachusetts to the government overlords. I hated the masks immediately…worked around people everyday before the vax and never got sick… figured that by being exposed to so many pathogens and viruses in my line of work is why I was good. Nobody gave
Damm if I got sick and died to service their homes while they hid out… when
The vax came out I simply knew we didnt need it. I Never brought the sickness home to the family for the whole “unknown period”.
It wasn’t until April 2022 that the kids got a cold from it and my wife and I were sick for a day. BTW… Ivermectin I got from our Mexico trip in February helped too.. When the pressure was on to get jabbed I basically said get fuc##d!! I worked among all you people the entire time and im good… i dont need the vax. All of us are still pure bloods, healthy and fine.
I did not take the jab!! I am 78 years old and have had 3 heart attacks. There was no way that I would let them put that poison into my body. I do not take any of the flu or pneumonia shots either. I thought all along that this was indeed a china-virus. My children took the jabs and have had the virus!! My grand daughter is like me and would not let them put this poison into her body. My husband would have taken the jab but he was worried that he would get sick and pass it on to me. That was the only reason he didn’t get it. Now he is happy he didn’t get it. I have my own business and was able to work the whole time while others were sick and dying. Remember – NEVER, NEVER TRUST the government or any damocrats!!!!
Science background. Everything was strange about the “pandemic “, so I took a wait and see approach. Positive positions seem to come only from government or pharma, meanwhile medical professionals in the field reported negative observations. Everything I continue to learn does not support taking the vax. 73 y. o. , no adverse health predispositions, wife same as me. Son and daughter avid vaxx, shut out any challenging info. I’m the weirdo.
Beautiful to see, isn’t it!
My hairdressers moms good friend took the shot and died soon after of the blood clot issue. Her Dr told the family it was the cv shot, but nobody will ever admit it.
Everyone that we know, that’s had the shot, has gotten cv19 at least once.
Me and DH have had no shots and no cv19..
very disappointed my daughter gave them to her kids so they could go on a cruise last year. They all cv19 when they got back..
No vax for me, my elderly mother and my sister’s family. Reasons varied. Mom: highly allergic reactions history to drugs. Dr. Told her not to take it. Sister’s family: Didn’t feel it was necessary (younger and all healthy).
Me: I know vaccines take years to properly develop. Instead I researched ways to boost immune system. I have auto immune issue and history of DVT (blood clots). Plus I’m a vaccination procrastinator usually.
Early Jan 2020 I listened daily to War Room podcast for news of the Chinese pandemic. One of the first guests, Dr. Hatfield described what was happening, what will happen and how vaccines can’t be an option during a pandemic; that no human sars/covid vax ever successful. Past attempts resulted in serious injury and/or death.
My diligent immunological research in the first few months of pandemic resulted in discovering many Drs and various protocols. Dr. Marik’s EVMS Covid Protocol was what I had my whole family using. This protocol eventually led to creation of the FLCCC Alliance, which became our go-to resource. Dr. Marik, Dr. Kory are my heroes for their diligent and compassionate work treating patients, developing preventative protocols at the cost of their professional careers (both fired by their hospitals for prescribing ivermectin).
When the vax did launch I again researched diligently but never dreamed vaccines would become mandated. It was disturbing to witness in real time how fanatically rabid and authoritarian the shut downs, then vaccines made family, friends, neighbors and customers. It was truly scary how fast and irrational some people became.
Sadly, my husband rushed out to get first shot when Calif. tried to push workplace masking mandates. Despite my findings on how dangerous these vaccines were…he got it because he didn’t want to wear a mask. I was very upset that he didn’t listen to my concerns about the shot. Once he realized just how bad, how compromised and how these experimental shots were being politically manipulated….he refused to get second shot.
Our teenage son was successfully brainwashed by his school and peers. I refused to let him get the vaccine. Once he turned 18 he secretly went out and got the shot, saying that he had to get it to enroll in college. I was so deeply disappointed he wouldn’t even ask me why I am against the vax….he (as most teens do) felt he knew best. Peer pressure also was a factor but the draconian mandates made it impossible for me, as a parent to keep him safe from these mRNA shots.
A month after his first vax he had a horrible “leg cramp” which I think was a potential blood clot. Each time after a booster, he has a reaction or slight cold. I live in fear he will drop dead like so many young people are as a result of these experimental shots. He is now at college and predictably keeps getting colds/flu due to his mRNA immune.
The FLCCC newest protocols address how the vaccinated can mitigate damages. In their experience it seems if a person gets 5-6 months beyond a shot with no adverse reactions…they’re probably ok and hopefully not one of the unfortunate who experience adverse reactions or death.
I spent months in 2021 finding Drs. via telemed who prescribed ivermectin. I built up my Covid 1st Aid Kit (as suggested by FLCCC). I ordered up enough supplies to get my whole family through any bouts of covid. At first sign of infection I had family members on the protocol and ivermectin. Most of us have had omicron and did fine. My elderly father wanted the vax. His bout of covid was by far the worse. He ended up in hospital as a result….despite being vaccinated, so we couldn’t treat him with ivermectin. But my mother did and her case wasn’t as bad.
Daily I hear my customers relay stories of sudden, unexplained pulmonary embolisms, heart issues, new chronic health problems, sudden deaths etc…. 99% are vaccinated….and so many don’t acknowledge how the vax changed things.
I’ve always identified with the Greek myth of Cassandra, and that’s been theme in my life. The past few years I definitely feel this even more as I watched the world turned upside down. I’m just grateful my research led me to voices like the FLCCC, Dr. McCoullogh, Dr. Malone, Naomi Wolf, Alex Berenson, Steve Kitchener, Dr. Geert van den Bosch, Del Bigtree & the Highwire, and so many other brave souls who refused to drink the kool aid.
Thank you CTH and Sundance for being such a great resource too!
I got the two Moderna jabs, under job and travel pressures. California put up lots of roadblocks to assure conformity.
I did it reluctantly, but did it.
In hindsight, I would have figured out ways around the obstacles.
Nothing about the pandemic scenario as presented ever made very much sense. We started with very little trust, and it diminished rapidly from there. Masks, social distancing, and lockdowns weren’t just pointless in hindsight. They were ridiculous on their face. The behavior of doctors and hospitals through 2020 wasn’t merely incompetent. It was cartoon villain worthy.
When the pressure for the jab was ramped up to include losing employment and exclusion from society, it was pretty clear that there was no medical justification for the jab If the experimental therapy had been “safe and effective” then threats and punitive measures would have been unnecessary. It would have been adopted gladly.
A large part of the reason for the cross country move my family undertook was to escape mandate-nazi central.
I was never going to take the covid vaxx voluntarily, due to the alarming information about its dangerous and untested consequences that had been published in 3rd and 4th quarters of 2020 via several alternative media blogs and conservative social media, not to mention comments and links provided here in CTH.
I never bought into the virus’ real danger either – the deaths attributed to covid had obviously been caused much more by deliberately poor and inadequate treatment from doctors, eldercare centers and hospitals.
God told me not to.
I’ve always felt that string of divinity from me to God, so I just didn’t do it. Though, to be fair, I didn’t vaccinate my kids at all, and they are amazingly healthy, intelligent and successful.
Only God tells me what to do, and he’s always correct.
Early in the Covid chain of events, public information became available that indicated the very low rate of life threatening illness for people in general good health. At barely 60, I was still in excellent general heath and quite good physical condition, so I did not consider myself at mortal risk. Further, my life is self isolating to a large degree, and I stay out of crowds because I don’t like them.
Early on, when President Trump was so viciously savaged, particularly by his own government, for the perfectly reasonable encouragement of early treatment with widely available medicines, I saw information, I can’t remember where but there were several sources, that ivermectin and HCQ were known treatments for this branch of illness. I saw an interview with one of the physicians declared a heritic, Dr. Zelenko, who was claiming treatment success of hundreds of patients with the Vitiman C, D, zinc, HCQ, and Ivermectin protocol without any deaths.
This claim would be easily debunked by his own patient records if false, but none of the medical establishment was inclined to pursue validation of his methods or to protect the public by raiding his records and showing his claims fraudulent. Thus, Dr. Zelenko had my attention and trust.
Also, Dr. Robert Malone, who was instrumental in the creation of mRNA technology, pointed out that the Zelenko protocol was based on an NIH study a few years earlier. So, I found the study on the NIH website and verified the truth of the claim myself. Dr. Zelenko was indeed using an NIH protocol. Dr. Zelenko also did interviews where he pointed out that Covid appeared to be created by the North Carolina scientist who patented the vaccine in 2015 or 16. In an interview, he described going back to the NIH database for information to refine his protocol and discovering to his shock that the protocol was created by the same North Carolina scientist. He was stunned that he missed that.
So, we have the government actively destroying the credibility of credentialed medical experts for promoting a treatment protocol in the public records of the NIH. The bans on prescribing the protocol, in whole or in part, were not only in contradiction with both the law and the public interest, but were actively causing widespread death.
When the HCQ trials were administered in the hospital setting, the situation became far darker. The test was only given to patients who were likely too far gone to survive. The purpose of the HCQ was only as a carrier for zinc, as zinc would readily kill the virus, but needs HCQ as a carrier to reach the virus. But the trials left out the Zinc and administered a dangerously high dose of HCQ. To patients already near death. Let this sink in. Reread this paragraph.
Dr. Zelenko, The Frontline Doctors, and the President were all advocating treatment at home, and very early in the illness. Also, preventative use of the protocol was advised by those having success treating the illness.
Thus, I reached the point of believing that the US government, The Media Industrial Complex, and the medical industry at large were knowingly managing the Covid outbreak to maximize death. Considering the US based research to develop the virus, the deliberate efforts to make it more lethal after contraction, and the viscous attacks on those trying to save lives, it becomes unreasonable to argue that the Covid 19 situation was not a result of a US govt operation.
And you want me to take that Vax?
I am primary caretaker of an 85 year old mother and a 30 yr old son lives in the house part time. None vaxed. in March 21, he caught covid during an outbreak at his office. He was the only unvaxxed person to get it. He’s to stubborn to do the prevention protocol. He was at the house, so I isolated Mom best I could and loaded up on Vitamin World ingredients. There is a weaker natural supplement substitution for HCQ and Ivermectin that I bought. Find the protocol online and print it. The 85 yr old and I never had a sniffle.
The only reason there have not already been trials for crimes against humanity is that the govt has already fallen. Escape plans are in order. If you don’t see the connection in C19 and the 2020 election fiasco, you are too stupid for me to help.
Right there with you for your whole story. . . .
But your last paragraph is a killer. Right on target!
First my husband and I believe in the mercy of God. He is the only one that knows the time we will go to meet him.
After seeing all the corruption of the government in the creation of the china flu, we were skeptics about everything the news or politicians were telling us.
One real simple reason: genetic therapy doesn’t sound safe and effective.
Then we research and the animals in the studies died very soon after the shots. I read the lungs and the hearts had white material all over (could be the rubbery stuff they are finding in humans too).
Then I started to listen to the testimony of Dr Kory and the flccc doctors on how Ivermectin was working in saving people from getting too sick.
After that I invested my time and resources in getting Ivermectin and all the vitamins.
My brothers got the shot and are boosted. We had many arguments because my mom didn’t take it and they were blaming her future death on me. Finally my mom put and end to the fighting saying she was an adult and it was her body. She was not taking the poison. She never got covid to this day. And no vax. The only bad thing is that I haven’t been able to see her because she can’t travel to the US 🙁
Yes, she can! Come in at the Southern border. No Covid restrictions there.
She sounds like a perfect candidate for asylum.
I didn’t take the experimental jab primarily because I didn’t trust the incomplete, one-dimensional “science” and media blitz. Early into the pandemic I learned firsthand from my doctor about other doctors being censured and harassed by state bureaucrats for offering opinions which differed from the “science”. After having learned as an adult that it is ALWAYS prudent to seek a second or even third medical opinion, suddenly that practice was not only imprudent, but socially unacceptable / politically incorrect / or “misinformation”. Additionally, I knew of natural immunity from the basic science classes taught in primary school. Just as suddenly that topic was censored until April 2022. Lastly, the tons of money being shoveled into the medical establishment and states seemed more like bribes and hush money than anything else. Rather than take the jab, I bought ivermectin – legally of course – using the FLCCC system.
I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever about not taking the experimental jab. But I’m saddened by the apparent link between the mRNA products and SADS (Adult or Adolescent) numbers. I think the same people who carry on about smoking and vaping had better focus their attention on mRNA shots.
58, male, healthy. I was employed at a hospital and deadlines were approaching. Then I caught the C bug and lived ! Since I had an eighth grade education, I knew I had acquired immunity so why would I need a jab now ? I reluctantly attained a medical exemption from my Dr but the hospital administration denied and we separated. Wrongful termination as I see it.
