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.

Wow so many comments. Here goes mine:
A long time ago, my brother developed Guillain-Barre syndrome after getting a flu shot. No one in my family has ever gotten the flu shot since and that carried over to the Covid jab. Interestingly, whenever the subject for the flu shot came up and doctor or nurse would recommend it I would relay my brother’s story and they would agree “Yes that makes sense not to get it”. Not so with Covid. Very insistent about it. “It’s different, I know, but I’ll pass” was our attitude. My spouse and I both got Covid in August of 2021. I didn’t know I had it, my wife had to go to ER. At the hospital, my wife made the staff stop the Remdesivir, it wasn’t helping. The doctors there had an attitude of contemptuousness towards her because she was unvaccinated. Most of the nurses were more understanding.
I feel for those “heads of households” that had to take the shot to support their family. We have been blessed not to have been forced to make that decision.
You’re very fortunate that the doctors listened to your wife and stopped the murder drug.
I refused the jab because it was suspicious how much the powers that be wanted us to take it. It also seemed unnecessary. I never take flu shots either.
Same here.
Ps. I wouldn’t let my kids get the HPV because it was experimental. My kids always ask where my medical certificate is, haha. yet they always listen whether it makes sense at the time or not
I was 52 years old when the vaccine came available. I urged my elderly parents to get it, and I’ve never changed my mind on that.
But my wife, kids, brother’s family, and myself all tested positive for COVID a month before the vaccine was available. I then asked my physician about getting the vax after having had COVID and she said “what for? You’re immune”
Sealed it for me. Followed the science.
You are lucky! Your doctor was honest enough to point out the truth!
This past Summer, I took my daughter to get her booster MMR at our local health dept.
The Doctor tried to sell me on the Rona Vaxx for my 12 year old.
My response was, “It is not proven. Therefore, I would never do that to my daughter.”
My tone reflected every bit of how appalled I was that she even suggested such a thing, and I told her that she jeopardized any faith that I might have in her as a doctor.
I decided early on that I would not take the shots. First of all, I have never participated in a clinical trial, and I was not interested in participating in this one. I was put off by the full court press that accompanied the shot roll out and the lack of push back from any reliable source (censorship in play). Secondly, I hate needles and eschew shots and needles whenever possible. I was the only person in my family, (husband and four adult children) who refused the shots. Along with that and my extreme skepticism about the entire Covid lockdowns, masking, protocols, I was vilified by one of my four children and banished from seeing my very young grandchildren for two years, going on three years, now. I do no regret my decision one single bit. I did the right thing for my health. The fallout with my family, is on them. My relationships with three of my kids is good, not with the fourth, who is the parent of my grandchildren. I have lost no friends as a result of my actions. The rift in the family still exists.
I’m sorry about the grandkids. I hope your child reflects and relents.
I did not take it, in fact i have been fairly anti vax for over a decade now
and I’m pretty anti big pharma everything… too many class action law suits
for me to trust a thing these days.
that aside, apparently it may not matter if you took the jab in the near future
they are planning to MRNA our food next…
Time to find a trusted, local meat rancher in your area…
https://www.revolver.news/2023/01/dr-malone-shares-dire-warning-mrna-vaccines-are-being-injected-into-our-food-supply/
I’ve been doing my own butchering for years. I haven’t trusted or used big pharma or medical doctors for a long time. Herbs and home remedies, period.
Virology is fake science. Vaccines are poison delivery vehicles. See: SIDS, autism and now cardiac arrest.
Patrick Gunnels makes a compelling argument that virology is junk science
As an RN in the people’s republic of IL, I got the jab. My job and livelihood were threatened.
I would have stayed in FL at the time, where it was not required in my correctional health care gig there at the county jail but I had a very sick dog and needed to get back to my northern home base and veterinarian. Otherwise I would not have been jabbed.
Decided on JNJ as it was the most resembling of a ‘normal’ vaccine. and was a “one and done” type deal. Wanted Sino Vax but it was not yet available in the US>
I however, stand firm and have refused to get boosted. Pritzker can blow it out his AR 15 ban for all I care.
Months ago at the Johnson and Johnson website, they were pushing for a ‘booster’…but they did not seem to have one. They encouraged, if I recall, Pfizer. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Pushing a competitor’s product???
Like any good red blooded American college kid learns early on….”Never mix your drinks”.
So I did not get any booster. I had the ‘Rona about 3 months ago…mild case.
Fast forward to Sparrowhawks posting a few days ago, the website How bad is my batch.com….that was an eye opener!!! I am lucky, very lucky as my batch was not too bad. No job is worth the risk but we do have to pay the mortgage and buy food.
In my circle, there have been 3-4 unexplained deaths and two cases of unexpected cancers.
56 years old, neither my wife nor I believed in the jab from the beginning. In 2016, despite being thoroughly happy that PDJT had won the election over Clinton, I assumed that the Russian collusion story was likely true. Came to the CTH to see what was being said and read the Rosemary Collier report in its entirety…well, the unredacted parts. Wow, that was just the beginning of a four-year eye-opening/mind-opening process. As you say, “once you see the puppet strings, you can’t not see them.”
Four years later when the “pandemic” hit, I was fully prepared to be properly skeptical at first while seeking knowledgeable, critical analysis. Too many questions from the get-go and the complete suspicion that things were not in reality as they were being reported. The medical establishment has only continued to dig their grave as more and more information undoes the original narrative for both the virus and the shot. Thank you to the CTH (both Sundance and the community in general) for turning me into a much better and more active critical thinker.
The simple fact that Rachel ‘Pat’ Maddow was pushing ‘Russia Russia Russia!’ so hard should have been a clue …
I took the pandemic and virus seriously. Obviously it was a serious virus. Millions died. No one credibly disputes this. Was it 5 million, 1, or just half….in the US…no one will ever know this with precision. But it is important to understand this WAS A ENGINEERED BIOWEAPON.
It was DEVELOPED TO HAVE A LONG INCUBATION, HIGHLY MUTABLE impact that would allow a globalist state to concentrate power.
So there was a political reasons also behind me position.
I decided it would be best to avoid EVERYTHING that was being proposed and mandated to “control” a ENGINEERED BIOWEAPON.
I think my decisions were correct and based on the best information that I could locate…which I had to perform with an extraordinary tax on my time and resources, as I was going thru the aftermath of two category 4/5 hurricanes that devastates my area and my assets and my family and my friends and my community. The virus was particularly hard on this area in 2020, because of many factors, but those two hurricanes and the disaster and lack of good hygiene and general poor mental health AND FAITH that usually is linked, caused many more deaths than would otherwise.
I lost good friends. I miss them.
I do not resent nor am I angry or judgemental toward others who decided to take the jab. That is NOT MY BUSINESS.
freedom is more than just a word. it is a choice.
I made a choice.
my freedom exists because I have this choice.
I respect this definition of freedom also applies to others who do not share my own choices as their own.
God Bless America
Reg. You’re right about most of it but…it wasn’t a serious virus. NOBODY died from it. It’s the flu
Rawkstar,there is a part of me that wants to agree with you. Unfortunately, I’ve discovered that it is very likely that this highly contagious virus was engineered.
Research Ft. Dietrich and then follow the players. They are all connected. It even flows through to Wuhan.
I believe that while engineered, it also misfired, killing far fewer than designers intended.
This explains why TPTB appeared to do everything possible to magnify the effects and refuse alternative treatments in order to pump up the death counts. They even went so far as to falsify death certificates.
Um, no, not really. I never had low blood ox AND pneumonia together, in the summer, in Texas …
I got a deep lung infection in early June 2019 that took me two months, and many bottles of cough medicine, to shake. Of course there was no talk of COVID at the time. In September of that year I began visiting, about every two weeks, my ex-wife, who, about a year earlier, had lost her husband of 25 years. Each visit put me on four different buses, two there and two back. Visits went on for about a year, when we decided to get back together. In that year, and ever since, I haven’t had a respiratory illness, even a cold. I never got tested, but I told my doctor about it and he seemed to agree that I had gotten the virus.
My ex-daughter in law, a self described anarchist and antifa sympathizer was pushing my son, her ex who has full custody of their 12 year old, to get the shot.
My son held firm, told her it was experimental and was not going to take the risk. So, I did the research on the jab and gave it to my son as she was threatening court action.
That’s when I decided my son was right. My ex-daughter-in-law finally gave up the harassment after 6 months, and ironically, her constant nagging was the catalyst that made me do the research and discover the Covid shot is dangerous. So, for myself, I told my doctor, ‘no way.’
I’m 66. The wife and I got the bug Thanksgiving 2020. So I trusted having natural immunity after that. Did a lot of reading here and other trustworthy websites about the suppression of treatment. That didn’t set well and for sure helped in my distrust of Fauci and the govt response and mandates. The in-laws mostly got jabbed and pressed my wife to also but she has a pretty good head on her being a nurse and hasn’t got it. One of our three daughters, her husband and son did and that did cause some friction when she tried to convince the rest of us what a good idea it would be. It was subsequently dropped and not brought up again. She claims to have not gotten any boosters. She does work in administration at a university school of nursing so go figure.
I knew that they were lying in March 2020. In my professional capacity, I know that surgical masks are useless against an airborne virus. Everyone knew this. It was common knowledge.
It was also my understanding that you can’t really hide from a respiratory virus once it is running wild in your area. For a lockdown to be effective, you’d have to shut down everything, the grocery stores, hospitals, trash collection, and waste water treatment plants. Nearly every city dweller in America would be dead in a week.
So I knew they were lying from the start.
In January 2020, when the Pfizer shot became available to my age group with no guarantee it would be available after they would soon open it up to people under age 70, I took it while I could, so I thought. I fell for the initial hype. I contracted a mild case of Covid soon afterwards and never took a booster since I believed the original shot was ineffective and I at least acquired natural immunity. A year later I took the Front Line Doctors Ivermectin protocol to rid my body of spike proteins.
My wife being a syringe-a-phobe, deferred until the negative publicity vindicated her procrastination. She contracted Covid in early 2020 and has suffered long Covid symptoms. Her modern regimen is EmergenC.
The jab was reported to have been formulated with human baby parts.
I researched Dr Robert Malone early on.
As a resident of the Rust Belt, I have known my entire life that the parasite overclass hates me and wants me dead. De-industrialization and then opiates made that abundantly clear. When it was obvious that COVID was nowhere near as deadly as they claimed it triggered the “How are they trying to kill us this time?” sensor.
It’s really that simple.
You are correct. As an immigrant to the USA (legal), the most glaringly obvious thing about this country is that it is ruled by an oligarchy drawn mostly from a small ethnic group that hates whites and hates Christians. I have had coworkers from China, India and other countries remark about this group’s overrepresentation and how Americans don’t seem to notice. It’s a taboo to point it out.
They hate the rust belt types and want them to die out, just as Trudeau in Canada wants the original founding stock Canadians to die out.
By early summer of 2020, Dr. Peter McCullough, and the fledgling FLCCC knew that an Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine protocol would prevent 60-80% of our population from having to be hospitalized with this virus. Watching several Dr. Sherri Tenpenny videos further enhanced the evidence that natural immunity and prior mentioned treatments were legit solutions that, had these been recognized by our Federal Health Authorities (/s), would have shut down an Emergency Use Authorization in it’s tracks. Will never forget watching a video (mid-March 2020-now gone) of a younger ER Doctor in New York who cared for 12-13 patients, finally back at his apt. telling the frustration of these intubated patients who simply were not responding to the extra oxygen. He remarked this had to be related to a blood issue. Shortly there after I read an article (Zerohedge?) about how HQC works to prevent Malaria by preventing the hemoglobin portion within the red blood cells from being removed from the cell, allowing red blood cells to carry and transfer the O2 molecules. Enough information for me to be free from the “FEAR” that Gov’t, Media, and Big Pharma were attempting to instill. My wife of almost 40 years, myself, and 3 of our 4 adult children have refused this Gene Therapy. My wife did receive (a year ago) the monoclonal antibody treatment, she uses a CPAP with oxygen nightly, and it worked wonderfully.
For the same reason I am not the first snowmobile out on a frozen lake, I decided to see how the early recipients of the new “vax” fared before considering it.
The MRna I understood to be potentially gene altering which seemed risky to me. While waiting and observing I noticed the inconsistencies with regard to what was actual science and what appeared to be political science.
The more I watched the pervasive attempts to pressure acceptance of it the more skeptical I became.
So, I refused it when offered it. What I have observed since then has done nothing but deepen my distrust of government and also of the medical industry. Have not gone back to a doctor for over 2 years and no plans to do so despite advanced age.
I have 4 adult children. One of them took an initial vax and has since refused and switched to FLCCC recommended meds sourced from Mexico.
My wife, myself and youngest adult child at home all got covid once in Dec 2021 and treated ourselves at home with vitamins D, C, zinc, quercetin and pony paste.
Son recovered in a couple days, wife and I a couple weeks. Wife is 9 years younger but got sicker than me which I attribute to my testing of the paste a couple times on myself prior to anyone else taking it.
My wife only took it when the clinic told her they would give her Remdesivir if she became an inpatient. So she was already sick for days by the time she decided she wanted it.
Oldest two adult children not living at home also got it about the same point in time. Oldest one took paste, other one took nothing and both recovered in a couple days.
None of us will consider any imposed vaccine for anything at this point.
Don’t know whether the vax scam was for just money, for depopulation or a sick need for absolute control. Or all three…
We used to look for signs of two tracks going ‘onto’ the lake; one track going onto the lake, and the same track pattern ‘track’ coming back off the lake …
Aside from government mandating the jab, I work with entity that approves clinical trials. I see the safety reports, adverse event reports and the toxicology data to support the research….so, absolutely NO jab for me and husband. I live in fear for my daughter who was forced to get it for hospital job.
I have a background in hospital administration, and an Mph in the same. I worked for 15 years in major teaching hospitals in NYC and learned one thing – to do extensive research when it came to any medication, treatment, or surgery prescribed by doctors. That propensity for research and being my own (and family’s) advocate has stood in good stead over the years. When I first read about the development of mrna teachnology, I began to research on Pub.Med and other scientific sites, journals, etc, and learned that the reason mrna “vaccines” had not been introduced decades sooner was that in all cases, the test animals in the trials had died. I kept researching and by the time the shots were made available, there was NO WAY I would take one (or more) nor would I let my immediate family do the same. I tried to warn friends, few of whom heeded my advice. I lost a few of them – but I had to try to enlighten them as to the potential deadly dangers they would be facing. I follow several experts (among them Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Pierre Kory & Dr. Paul Marik) , who had warned about the potential deadly effects such as myocarditis and pericarditis, and that successive shots and boosters are having the effect of progressively damaging the immune system. Early on, the fact that patients who were presenting at hospital ERs were told to go home, take fever reduction OTC meds like Tylenol, and only to return if/when they couldn’t breathe was a travesty. There were and are many medications that have been in existence for some time, which have been found to act to prevent or ameliorate and cure Covid. All of this information was suppressed by an unholy cabal of MSM, government, and social media. This is still in play. Why? Because no EUA could be issued for any new drug/”vaccine” if any other means of treatment was in existence. Countless lives have been lost because of this. And now, with the “new disease of SADS” (sudden adult death syndrome), with countless student and professional athletes dropping dead in plain view of cameras and crowds), it’s getting more and more difficult to put the genie back in the bottle. I feel good about refusing “the jab” – and I would once again try to warn all my family, friends and acquaintances – even if I alienated some of them – because it was and is the right thing to do.
I did not take any of the MRNA baloney. I thought the whole covid thing was a scam from the beginning. I read all I could find about survival rates, saw that the chance of dying from the Chinese bug was fairly low and lived my life normally. And I am still here despite the fact I am over 65 and have a rare lung disease and have been on oxygen 24/7 for over 3 years. I learned a long time ago not to trust the government. Also when the tv started up with commercials about staying home to stop the spread I turned it off. The only folks who got this right from the beginning were Dennis Prager and Rush. I missed the 2020 Christmas with my grandkids because I would not wear a mask. But my daughter in law never asked me about the vax.
I hate adding AGAIN. My sister in law just called me asking how much IVM she should take. Truly, just called. I had the doses, needles, liquid. I drove it over. She took it no question. She knew I was learned about it. She’s twice shotted, twice boosted. Sick again 3x in last year. She is seriously scared. I never voiced to anyone who didn’t want to hear. It’s hard to not to yell to DO NOT TAKE ANOTHER SHOT!!. But I did at this point. Red pill is hard to swallow when you have 4 shots. I will always help if I can.
NO–I didnt take the jab and I didnt mask.I had no problem fending off challenges from the jab enthusiasts.I’ve always had a problem with people trying to push my around.I don’t live in fear, and I have no fear of a herd of sheep . There were ample facts early on from Jon Rappoport’s NoMoreFakeNews blog, Robert Malone ,john Ioannidis,The Great Barrington Declaration,etc,etc. There was too much hype from people who didn’t follow their own rules. What amazed me is that 99% of the people where I live masked up and probably took the shot.My doctor was a big fan of doing jabs.I live near Georgian Bay in Ontario Canada,I’m in my 70’s but of sturdy stock genetically.I was very disappointed that Trump got scammed with the ”2 weeks to flatten the curve ” BS.He got lots of bad advise on that,and to the delight of the deep state blew his own political brains out.He did say at the time when he was sitting with fauci and scarf woman that the cure shouldn’t be worse than the disease.There needs to be a payback.I’m tired of the corrupt and evil people who did everything they felt like to ordinary people just walking. I’ve borrowed a phrase from Cato the Elder ”Carthago delenda est”I substitute the 4th branch of government and its accomplices in the west, which includes Canada which has become a vassal to the USA and an acolyte of the WEF,BBB,green new deal BS.
Drew Mariano on Relevant radio had an immunology doctor on his show where the jab was discussed, heavily.
The short-brief take aways are:
If you have symptoms (chest pain and or can’t breathe) and end up in the ER, demand a D-Dimer test…its a lab test that is specific for micro clots that usually show up in the lungs…and guides the treatment.
And the dangerous times are generally within a week of the jab, then 5-8 months after which is another danger period.
Again, seek medical attention if symptomatic.
It’s hard to relive my emotions on this topic and I’m still bitter. Early on in 2020 when the discussion of a vaccine coming to market was making the news, I jokingly said to my husband, “Heck no we aren’t taking it first – I’m not growing an extra arm or ear. Let’s wait and see how this plays out.”
I’ve always trusted my instincts and am thankful God gave me a backbone of steel. My employer mandated the vax and denied my request for religious exemption. I held firm, was prepared to be fired, I said my goodbyes, HR told me how my PTO would be paid out, then OSHA bailed them out eight days before my set termination date. This was late November 2021. I never doubted my decision and still have zero regrets. I was raised to stand up for my beliefs no matter the cost, and while that may sound cliche, it’s part of who I am. Top 5 best decisions of my lifetime.
1) The tsunami of lies that inundated us regarding the flu and the shots
2) The psychological terror op that it all was
3) Likely connection to aborted babies
I didn’t take the mRNA for 3 reasons: 1) I had the virus early on and believe in natural immunity, 2) I have read about many problems with the mRNA technology and thought it had been inadequately tested, and 3) It felt wrong. The street disinfecting in China seemed wrong, and spraying individuals with disinfectants for a respiratory infection seemed more MGM than CDC. I also did not like the assaults on men like Didier Rauolt, men with long careers in disease control and treatment, who were being slammed for dissent. The more extreme the fear spectacle, the more certain I was that it was “off”.
It was the same feeling I got about the 2020 election and the total lack of surprise by the GOP, and its failure to mention any details. Sometime things are wrong and you can’t exactly pin down why. The total negation of natural immunity was probably the yugest red flag.
Neither my husband, two adult kids nor I got the vax. I got a list of the ingredients early on of the Moderna vax. I researched every ingredient and learned of the delivery system, the mRNA. Because it was different from all previous vax ( not weakened or dead virus), I decided on a wait and see attitude. No one I knew got covid as months passed…..and I maintained my stance. When months passed and no treatments were forthcoming, I got suspicious. Then drs. getting punished for their stances. I knew something was wrong. Soon it became obvious—it was all about the $$$$.
I’m not a guinea pig. They wouldn’t say what was in it. The gubmint gave the pushers immunity, but it was never shown that the jab would give us any immunity. It was admitted that the jab wasn’t a vaccine at all, but gene therapy. With the gubmint constantly lying their ashes off it was obvious they couldn’t be trusted with anything anymore. I was born at night, but not last night.
In Jan 2020 I found information on the mRNA shots available at alternative news sites and GAB.
Pfizer’s studies clearly showed they did not test for whether it stops transmission or infection. The data on reducing symptoms was massaged.
Others said this is not the tech for mass vaccination but only for specialty mRNA shots for rare cancers etc.
I was openly afraid of the shots, I saw data on the horrible side effects.
The use of mass propaganda and all the people who bought into it shocked me and still does.
I will not take any mRNA shots. They intrude into the body’s cells and use the rhibosomes to produce and unnatural protein. A synthetic spike protein, or just blood clotting gunk if the mRNA is damaged.
Your blood is filled with billions of spike proteins that cause damage body wide.
Discernment.
It killed all the ferrets!
not kidding MRNA in trials always killed the animals!
If it made my body make the toxic spike what would my body STOP making the spike!
No vax for me & my family. First of all i am a firm believer in natural healing. God designed our body to self heal & he is my Great Physician. I never take a flu shot much less that jab.
I believe C 19 is biological weapon probably originating in China. It has killed many people & many of those deaths could have been prevented if they were not denied proper treatments at hospitals under orders from our Govt.
Do you really believe the govt that helped design biological weapon would develop a preventative vax? I say No Way!
I have not had Covid. I had a nasty flu lasting 3 wks. I did not go to Dr & recovered just fine after it ran its course.
It is very sad hearing of all these healthy athletes keeling over from heart attacks & blood clots.
I say don’t let any Govt force you to kill off your own immune system. Just my opinion, you asked for it.
I won’t take any drug that hasn’t been out for at least several years. Side effects often turn up much later, and I didn’t think the vaccine was ready. Also, I was suspicious of the new methods. I believe I had a pretty bad case of Covid back in February 2020, although at the time I didn’t know what it was. Much later, I had a mild case of Covid that tested as Covid. I’m not going to take the vax, and I hope they don’t switch the flu vaccine to MRNA, because I do want the flu shots. I have asthma, and it’s important to me.
They are working on dozens of new mRNA “solutions” as it’s worked out so well so far . . .
This is only the beginning.
I didn’t take the shot because I was concerned about it working and I read about the predecessor for SARS-COVID and the ferrets. I prayed about it and God told me not to get the shot. Since then we have learned about 1,255 severe adverse effects. I also say how hard the government pushed the shots and I knew something was wrong. The crushing of any opposing view points about its effectiveness and the trickling admissions of the adverse reactions that have happened. The collusion of the manufacturers and the FDA and CDC to hide the studies for 75 years also told me that I heard right from God.
I refused the vax because mRNA was too new and experimental. I also questioned early on the changing messages from the so called experts.
It was just basically common sense. It also bothered me how medical doctors offering other therapeutic options were shut down. Especially when the Great Barringtin Declaration came out.
Unfortunately the behavior of the government towards covid and the vax now has me distrusting institutions like the CDC, FDA, NHI, etc.
My husband (defense contracter) held off (religious exemption request filed)….but, it came close to where he was almost forced (to keep his job). The mandate is not forced now.
No relationship damage ever even with family that took the vax shot. The relative who most supported the vax now regrets it the most as news of vax injuries and sudden deaths has been coming out.
My wife and a I are both well into the age group that is supposedly most at risk. Initially we waited because the shot is experimental gene therapy, not a true vaccine. As more data became available we obtained ivermectin from a courageous out of state doctor and mail order pharmacy, storing the drug until we might need it. Last fall we were both exposed by an employee and showed some of the symptoms, mainly systemic body aches and fatigue. TWO doses of ivermectin and in 36 hours we were both feeling much better and able to work normally at home. 48 hours and we were over it completely except for a slight loss of sense of taste for a few weeks. A POX on the medical bureaucracy that quashed data about ivermectin and hydroxy that I firmly believe could have saved thousands, maybe millions of lives.
As I commented here previously, I took 2 EUA shots during the Gulf War.
I have regretted every day since.
The excuses offered throughout the years by government health bureaucrats were many, and certainly a preview of what we see now.
These clowns need to understand the damage they have done will never be forgiven without serious accountability.
Did not get. Encouraged by employer to do so but mildly. Have had 2 variants Delta and later Omicron. Both went down to horse paste and vitamins. Generally speaking health has been better since out of Army. 20 yes annual flu shot with flu on average every 3yrs. Retired no more shots and no more flu. Don’t ever intend to get another shot
Not big on shots and fortunately have had a cold once in the last 20 years. Never had a flu or shingles shot and just wasn’t thoroughly convinced I need a Covid shot.
As time went on my belief became stronger that it was worth the risk of taking the “vaccine” . It was pushed so hard and I don’t get doubtful when being pushed too hard. Fortunately , neither my wife or I have had Covid or have taken the shot.
Living in fl. and not having a job that required the vaccine also made the choice of no “vaccine “ an easier decision. I am grateful that thru Gods grace and guidance I have been fortunate to have not suffered severe consequences.
Just like in the movie “Somebody up there likes me”. Pray and help others
Not taking the vaccine
1. I was not in a high-risk group, so decided to let others go first.
2. Then I started seeing problems, and the started SELLING ME – I’ve never been sold a vaxx before.
3. Alternate media and voices started relaying problems.
4. It was quickly very political.
Didn’t take it because the whole damn thing seemed a little suspicious to me – the whole lockdown/flatten the curve/mask thing, I perceived it from the get-go as bravo-sierra. Then when the govt. began paying for it and “requiring” everyone to take it that was an absolute “no-go” for me. Furthermore, I was curious why it was the “only” remedy being promoted – all of the efficacious treatments were banned – that raised a BIG red flag. And I was listening to people like Dr. Malone and Dr. McCoullough who were very skeptical about the whole matter and the suppression of proven effective treatments. Finally, I never take any of the “recommended” shots anyway (pneumonia, shingles, hepB, flu, etc.), so I was already a skeptic – and well, what do you know?
I hate needles, so hell no. And I felt OK with it anyway, as I have posted before here, I pretty much knew I had it right after all of the Canadians were hauling ass back to Canada from Florida, when I was down in the Port St. Lucie area. I figured I had a chance at immunity at that time. After the Govt. started pushing the “Jab” I KNEW I had immunity (albeit I did get, and still have) “Long Covid ” aftereffects. And I never looked back. Totally healthy, just still occasionally hit the Symbicort and/ or Albuterol puffer as needed. I will say though, Covid totally screwed up my singing voice! But I can LIVE with that! 😉
Had to get it as a requirement for work. All other hospitals in my area required it. Had a choice between unemployment and not being able to get another healthcare job or taking it. Very much pissed that I was coerced into getting it.
As an old forensic Histotial analyst, military trained, have seen too many governmental and other manipulations. My two daughters, and families did not either. Was aware of Gates issues in Africa.
At first it was because I have so many allergies to prescription meds. My doctor and his nurse practitioner wife did felt that the COVID experimental vaccine was too dangerous for me. .Final words were “We don’t want to do CPR on Elaine in our lobby” to which we all kind of giggled. I know they were trying to make me feel more at ease at the since I was friends with whole family for many years. .. Yes they did use the word “experimental”
That was December 2020, within weeks I was so grateful for my numerous allergies.
Now there is no way I’d ever take it after what I’ve seen and heard. At 74 I don’t need to take a chance on some experiment drug that has literally become THE Biggest Killer in America & even the world.
Due to the vaccine, I’m actually now fearful of any shot from a doctor or hospital.

In the words of Cat in the Hat—“NO!!”
When I first heard about the vax in Jan 2021 I went on the Moderna website, the Pfizer website, and the CDC website and read the descriptions of this so-called vaccine and began writing about it. I tried to convince my friends (and my wife) not to take it, without success. I discovered that without exception, the people who wanted to take the vax did not do their due diligence. I can only hope that nothing happens to them in the coming years, which will essentially be the completion of a worldwide clinical trial. Now I am concerned because some researchers say that mRNA can be transferred from the vaxxed to the unvaxed. I am proud to be part of the 20% of Americans with enough self awareness to avoid this poison. I feel truly sorry for those who were forced to take it because of a job mandate.
Fortunately the dam is breaking on the medical corruption. I hope that in 2023 the truth will come out, and the criminals responsible will face justice.
Started reading about the mRNA therapy early on. By the time we were eligible for the shots we were convinced they were just too dangerous. Kept reading and watching. Now we are certain we made the right decision. Dead and nearly dead relatives and neighbors. No thanks.
Finally contracted COVID. Took Ivermectin. Quick improvement. No problems. The experience merely confirmed that we have been lied to from the start. So many lies. Not enough answers.
By the time the shots rolled around, the deep state had been lying non-stop about lockdowns, testing, and masks. I knew the jabs would be more of the same.
The nail in the coffin was when I was overseas around May 2020 and a friend had CNN International on the TV. Christiane Amanpour was interviewing WEF people about the Great Reset, while the accompanying graphics were all fear porn. It was clear what was going on.
Felt early on that it was wrong. Just didn’t want to do it and had read enough online to know it was dangerous. Tried to tell my family and was excluded from family dinners for a while, but that was OK. We kept our church open and went about doing God’s business too.
Early in the process, it was clear that logic was not being employed and the virus was a pretext for control. In response we researched older virology papers to understand how they worked, because at the time it seemed to really be something deadly. We settled on taking zinc, quercetin, Vitamins C & D, and getting plenty of rest. We havent been sick in the 2 years since, so it was a success for us.
By the time the ‘vaccine’ came out, our trust in the medical profession was destroyed. And then came the VAERS reports. We committed to refuse the jab at any cost, even if it meant our careers. You only get one life.
