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 knew it was a scam from the start. How? No clue. Just knew. Felt it. Knew it. Never feared Covid. Never bought into the over the top fear. Still doubt as many people died from it as claimed. I did fear all the people around me who got all bent out of shape. I felt like the only sane person at times. So glad I never got the shot as I see the excess death rates rise now.
Like – Bird Flu and the ‘prion’ (meat) scare before that.
I didn’t get the shot. My decision was made easier because I’m self employed. To say I was skeptical would be an understatement. I don’t trust ANY federal or state agencies and believe “private” is the new standard for excellence, and “government” indicates the cheap seats. I still don’t understand President Trumps insistence on it as opposed to saying “make your own choice,”
My wife did because VA, but not any boosters. My mom did because she didn’t want to be gossiped about by her church members (such is rural Arkansas), and she declined boosters. My sister did because of her job, her husband didn’t because self employed and both declined boosters. All but mom have had covid, but all with mild symptoms.
Our family had the OG CV1984 in February 2020. We had antibodies and I felt secure that our natural immunity would trump any new “vax”. I also knew that HCQ & Ivermectin were safe and effective against other infectious diseases because I worked in a healthcare setting that prescribed HCQ. Anyone going to work in Ghana (or other places where malaria is endemic) took it 2 weeks before they left, the entire time they were there and 2-4 weeks upon returning stateside. Out of thousands, we had no issues with side effects at all. I also knew that both medications were safe to take through all 3 trimesters of pregnancy. Then I began reading the studies from the research of mRNA jæbs with mice and, after, the HIV trials. I knew what was happening when they just kept lying. That is why my family and I are not “vaxxed”.
I learned a lot about Govt and Pharma when my 18 mo old child contracted polio from the “oral” vaccine in 1998. MD never informed us it was a “live” virus vaccine. Never knew about the Vaccine Compensation Fund. Govt and Pharma KNOW their juices can cause serious problems so the dund wqs set up to financially protect Pharma.
To get this covid killshot, one had to sign away your rights to compensation from the Fund AND agree not to sue Pharma. All as you were being constantly pressured by Democrat shutdowns. Those 3 factors told me ALL I needed to know about the Fauci death plan. So far, I have not been wrong.
No I did not take the jab. I lost everything for simply refusing to wear mask. Lost my job, car, and any chance of supporting myself. It is quite simple… If my God given rights are being forced away from me I have no choice but to stand and fight.
Because critical thinking is your friend!!
I had a revelation as early as April 2020 that Fauci was a total sh@rtwe@sel of a fraud. It happened when the subject of “Hotel Charlie Quinine”* came up
It was reported that a group of some 2000 cases under the supervision of a French virologists were treated with HCQ with dramatic improvements
And Fauci responded that these were merely isolated cases and that there was no control group. Never mind the bogus characterization of these reports; shouldnt these cases have triggered further attention?
And as for a “control group” what about that unofficial control group representing the millions of other COVID cases, none of whom reported ANY sudden improvements whatsoever?
re: “It was reported that a group of some 2000 cases under the supervision of a French virologists were treated with HCQ with dramatic improvements”
Yes Didier Raoult, Dr, Didier Raoult. French virologist. The press and medical community tried to quash him and his efforts too. So, it wasn’t just a US centric ‘thing’ where the censoring took place.
I remember seeing this, covid was a military op.
https://rumble.com/v24zjhm–bombshell-new-foia-documents-reveal-the-covid-pandemic-was-a-dod-operation.html
Well, this was INTERNATIONAL in scope, see, for instance:
https://rumble.com/v1lwiri-the-big-reset-movie-the-uncensored-truth-of-the-pandemic.html
“THE BIG RESET MOVIE [THE UNCENSORED] TRUTH OF THE PANDEMIC”
Long story short….immediate family members and I live only a 15 minute drive from each other, but this short distance spans a wide river that serves as an international border between Canada and the U.S. For me I had to decide whether to take the jab to enter Canada, or not be able to be with and hold and hug my loved ones.
I will not take any boosters and thank God, I’ve had no side effects from the original shot and my health is generally good. Canada has since lifted the jab requirement, but the U.S. is still one of the few western countries that still maintains it. That’s insane. Therefore, one of my unvaxed daughters to this day an cannot enter the U.S. from Canada. It makes no sense and seems to me an act of intentional cruelty.
From what I’ve heard, the guards at the border don’t care about the vax at all, and don’t even ask about it. At least, that’s the case out here at the BC/Washington border crossings. I’ve had several unvaxxed friends cross over and back with no issues. Maybe the situation is different where you live back east.
Maybe you could clarify your point because you kind of sound like a jerk.
The narrative seemed like propaganda from the very beginning. Every country in the world announces the same mandates word for word at the same time? Americas Frontline Doctors on the Supreme Court steps confirmed everything I ‘knew.’ The push for masks and lockdowns felt like Communism (we were in Los Angeles) – even hiking trails and beaches were closed!!? The fear-mongering sounded like lies. Fauxi reeked of snake oil. The propaganda came from Public Health officials, conveniently unelected bureaucrats. Judith Miklovitch confirmed my suspicions. I read that it was made in a military weapons lab in China. The inexorable push to get the vaxx confirmed all my suspicions.
I have learned to recognize propaganda whenever it rears its ugly face. I am even more wary of doctors and the medical establishment. The wonderful gain in all of this is the Free Press blogs, where every my suspicion has been researched and proven.
I already commented but here is a story… I was at a dealership and an older gentleman, a dad driving a Subaru that did not match his age, he had a mask around his chin and was struggling with the clutch. Walked over and inquired “ what’s up”. “ I’m here to get my sons car appraised, healthy as a horse 50 years old and dropped over dead, damdest thing”. I stood there and out of my mouth comes “ did he get the shot?” The dad had never connected that thought, it was stunning to watch. I asked for forgiveness, it happened 3 weeks ago and I still feel bad on so many plains.
The truth is going to come out. There are too many deaths now to hide the connection much longer. He would have made that connection sooner or later. Maybe you saved him from getting any more boosters…
I’m a nurse and see so much injury. Sometimes I ask. Sometimes I don’t. I understand the feeling of being the bearer of such devastating news. The truth is a horror but it’s part of life and I believe parents (especially of young folks) are going to be the group that blows this thing up. When they emerge from the fog of grief, there will be hell to pay. What you did possibly added another soldier to the fight.
My wife and I did not and will not take the shots. The visible corruption in treatment and reporting about treatment for COVID-19 were in our faces. Everything was done to boost death and panic. Normally effective widely distributed harmless cheap meds [HCQ, IVERMECTIN, ect] were deliberately removed from availability and repirting on their utility was supressed in favor of deadly drugs and protocols which killed people. Hospitals were and are being paid to use protocols which kill people.
That as before the shots were available.
There were warnings about the “vaccine” technology and people pushing it before release. We decided to be in the control group. Then we got covid—a mild case [for each of us] in November 2020 caught In an early election line—and had natural immunity.
I have friends in healthcare who have reported an unending series of vaccine injuries both among staff and outsiders. Some continue to work because they will not talk about it publicly. Some no longer work because they will not shut up about it publicly—but social media comments on this are still suppressed.
Most of my extended family took the shots. My retired military officer father took the shots and is dead. He was a pretty healthy 90 in a family tree with many centenarians when he died at home [stroke or heart attack] 2 weeks after his 3rd phizer shot. No autopsy–my mom took the same shots and we did not want to frighten her–so we do not know what killed him for sure.
My sister, her physician husband, and their younger adult doctor took the shots. That niece was convulsed for 2 weeks after the second shot [but still says she would take a booster—BRAIN WASHING IS THAT EFFECTIVE].
Their older daughter is married to another man who reads history, and they have avoided vaccination and delivered a little girl in November.
My wife’s family mostly took the shots with no ill effects reported yet. But some of them are worried and most have resolved against boosters.
COVID madness almost kilked my wife Susan. Early on, she got covid symptoms. No physician would see her until she got a test. Most tests then were 2-3 day or longer reporting cycles. We happened to get a 1-2 day test for her. A physician saw her after we had the test results in hand. She told Susan that Susan had a serious urinary tract infection, life threatening but easily treatable. If we had found a test which reported at 72 hrs rather than the 26 hrs we actually exlrienced, then Susan would have been dead from kidney failure.
She probably would have been papered as a covid death by the hospital. With her symptoms and lack of test results, they would have put her in the covid population pending test results, and she would have had it by the time she died.
May you have a blessed year Sundance, and all of us here that read you, and the all of our countrymen that we wish were better informed .
re: “The visible corruption in treatment and reporting about treatment for COVID-19 were in our faces.”
I especially detest the ‘visible corruption in reporting’ part; HOW does anyone make a correct assessment – when the numbers are LIES?
My reasoning why I didn’t fall in line and take the bioweapon is
“common sense”.
I have never bought into the vaccine “cure all” narrative and I never will.
I can remember a time in my lifetime when there was no such thing as autism.
Take away the poison that they’ve programmed the population to take. Things like autism no longer exist.
Say no to vaccines and stay healthy
More reasons why I didn’t take the mRNA death clot jabs!!!
They’re so SAFE and EFFECTIVE, LOL, LOL, LOL!!!
(said with the UTMOST SARCASM!!!!)
Watch and SPREAD!!!!
Especially fka Serena!
This is happening folks!!!
Wake up any SHEEPLE you know and red pill them ASAP!!!
The Covid scam paved the way for mail-in ballots. And the Soros/Gates/Schwab fantasies of depopulation.
The WHO/WEF plot killed two birds (Trump and fake world overpopulation) with one stone. Pun intended.
I hate shots. Always have, always will. When covid came along I viewed it aas just another flu. Fortunately, I am retired and had more choice in the matter than someone still in the work force.
I have never seen the point of injections because “something might happen”. Since reaching adulthood I have had the flu maybe once. It was rough, but I survived. When I was a manager, all my crew took the free company flu shot every year. And every year all of them got the flu.
Since 2008 the media has tried to gin up a pandemic. With covid they succeeded.
For years I would have chronic sore throats (no flu though!) – up until mid the 1990’s when I found Cayenne Pepper … even just a couple dashes in coffee every couple days was enough to supress the ‘culture’ (as one doctor I talked to put it) that resulted from my post nasal drip (owing to allergies) and where the sore thoat ‘started’ … so, NO flu shots since the Swine flu fiasco in 1976 for me!
I also have never had a flu shot, and before the plandemic had the flu once, bad bout, but my immune system did its job. Everyone I know that has taken a flu shot, gets the flu…every one of them!
https://www.statnews.com/2017/01/10/moderna-trouble-mrna/
This link on the MRNA jab will scare anyone.Pay attention to the date way before the plandemic.
Great find, Mark! I am surprised it is still on the net.
Covid was an experiment to see how easily or difficult it would be to get the great unwashed to OBEY. In my opinion, the WEF One World Government criminals found it easy. Millions upon millions took the jab and followed orders believing they were keeping themselves and their nearest and dearest SAFE. The jab believers turned on the no-jab believers.
Has the covid world exercise proven that governments can do anything with the world populations or have the people woken up to the liars who kill and maim millions upon millions of people to satisfy their lust for power and money?
Let’s hope Trump and Putin win before our western civilizations disappear.
Getting the vaccine never made sense to me, from the very beginning. I work as a clinical social worker, and I ended up quite sick from
Covid after working boots on the ground in CA in an inpatient psychiatric unit, where the entire unit, staff and patients, became sick with Covid; this was at the beginning of the pandemic. Having worked as a medical social worker for many years, and working with so many different diseases over many years, the hype over Covid never made any sense to me. I have a well managed autoimmune condition, and I am always making mindful healthcare decisions due to my autoimmune condition, and a history of adverse reactions to vaccines. So when they started mandating a vaccine for a disease that I have had twice now, it just made no sense. There is no sense or science of taking a vaccine for a disease that we have had. This is when I made the decision that there was a lot more to the vaccine, than they were telling us. I worked boots on the ground with patients in-person for the entire pandemic, and I have been banned from any job in my home state of CA. I cannot apply to any job in my field in CA due to my refusing the Covid vaccine, and all boosters. I lived in Alaska for a while, and I was able to work in Alaska without the jab. I am now living in Texas. It has absolutely changed relationships with many old friends whom I have known since childhood. Many of my friends in CA were 100% buy in to the Covid jab and hysteria. I have been called a conspiracy theorist for advocating for my own health care decisions. In the end it makes no sense to force a vaccine for a disease that 99% of people survive, and most have already had the disease. From the very beginning of the pandemic, there was something that felt very manufactured and fake to
me. I plan to live long term in Texas. I would never consider living in a blue state again due to many reasons, including the freedom to make my own personal healthcare decisions. I was on disability for 5 months in CA many years ago due to a very serious autoimmune flare up that left me completely bed bound, and that is something that I will never forget. I never want to be bed bound, sick, and unable to work again; why I am called a conspiracy theorist for advocating for my own health, is truly baffling to me. In the end, I think it has been one big psyop to create a constant state of fear to gain control, which is heartbreaking, as the damage done has been devastating.
I’m an insomniac. Early in the covid scam, I was reading everything I could find on it.
Early on I saw research detailing the DNA string and it’s origins. The only logical conclusion was it was man made. This was later confirmed by Dr David Martin in the rumble video.
I read the real research on masks and realized they too were a scam to force control.
I discussed this with many of the people I worked with. Got labeled a conspiracy nutjob. A year later they were asking me how I knew what I knew back when this all started.
I’ve watched governments become tyrants. I read the Bible and trust GOD. I see this tribulation and wonder if it is the beginning of the great one. I don’t know. All I know for sure is that GOD is the only one we can trust without reservation.
When the vaccines came out, I didn’t get one simply because I knew I didn’t need it. The chances of surviving COVID for my age group (and that of my family) made it a non-issue. I simply didn’t see the need.
Then the pressure came.
My work put out a new policy demanding everyone get the vaccine. A VERY strongly-worded memo came out saying we could be denied our hours or even be terminated. That’s when I dug in my heels, angry that anyone would try and force me to take something I didn’t want or need. Some good friends and long-term employees of the company told me I wasn’t likely to get fired, as that wasn’t the company culture and that it was likely done for PR reasons (sure enough, our woke idiot CEO was on the news soon after telling the world how he’d mandated vaccines for the entire company).
So, simply put: didn’t see the need and dug in my heels when threatened.
Best decision of my life.
I had contracted C19 prior to any vaccine being available so I was initially following the natural immunity idea. As the pandemic proceeded with no acknowledgement of risk/benefit as to the demand of everyone being vaccinated, I concluded that the process was not being driven by objective disinterested analysis. At that moment, the risk exceeded the benefit – I survived it once – and as we proceeded, I became more convinced as to that position (for me).
I supported those that chose vaccination and avoided debate as to should / shouldn’t – I simply declined to have the conversation and that worked well for me.
re: “I had contracted C19 prior to any vaccine being available so I was initially following the natural immunity idea.”
Reading on-line postings in 2020, it appeared to me that many people had been exposed, hence conferring __natural__ immunity! BUT did govt – the CDC, the NIAID (Fauci’s organization) or any other ‘group’ officially recognize this? Absolutely not! There was an agenda behind this … when such blindness is virtually MANDATED at all levels of govt and with and thru the use of a very complicit media …
I lost a job (for saying WuFlu and hurting peoples feelings!), lost many ‘friends’ in that orchestra who were fearful and angry at me for not being so. We moved out of California which had become the worst of the worst – as political refugees. We were shunned as we visited relatives in NJ and not invited to Thanksgiving or Christmas gatherings. I learned so very much in the process, all of which will help me deal with these very unusual times.
First when I heard RNA involved I said nope not messing with that, maybe I’ll wait for a traditional vaxx method. I never really bought into the fear hype so I wasn’t really afraid of getting Covid. As time went on little bit of truth we’re leaking out which helped me solidify my “nope” instinct
Retired 75 y/o RN. Husband and I declined the jab but the rest of our family took all jabs offered. It’s just a subject left unsaid. You ask why? My spider instincts started to tingle when at the beginning of all this, Pelosi sat on the first Trump impeachment for 3 weeks. It made me suspicious that the D’s were waiting for covid to ramp up and take center stage. More research ensued and here we are. I do not trust my MD or gov.now.
60 year old male married 31 years to a 56 year old women. I never got a flu shot, got the flu once. She got flu shots and got the flu from time to time. We were not concerned about catching this flu, as much as we were taking a jab from the government.
I believe I got covid, lost my taste and smell for a week or. WY resident for 30 years, we take care of ourselves, and each other.
I did not take the jab because by nature I am a non-conformist and will only modify that stance once I have had an opportunity to properly evaluate as much information as I can, relevant to the situation. In the case of taking the jab, as well as wearing a mask, there was far too much information being presented that opposed the government narrative. In addition to that, as I am a follower of the way of Jesus Christ, right from the onset of the pandemic, I believe that the Holy Spirit was urging me to walk circumspectly.
Indeed – Matthew 10:16-18 (NIV)
“I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues.”
No one on God’s green Earth can convince me that co-opting my body’s natural processes to produce spike protein is in anyway good medicine, good science, or even good sense.
I am 75 years old and have never been sick. My wife has stage 4 breast cancer. Her oncologist told her if she didn’t get the shot he could not allow her to take her treatments. We left!
None of our children and grandchildren took the shot. My oldest granddaughter left college in her sophomore year and took a full time job in the insurance industry. She’s getting real world experience without taking on debt while continuing her education online. My youngest granddaughter waited to attend college until the college she attends dropped their shot requirement. My grandson, a junior in high school, opened a Charles Schwab account and made more money in the stock market than his high school teachers.
The Bible says The Meek Will Inherit the Earth. After the Covid-19 apostasy, I believe it needs to be revised to…The Meek and the Unvaccinated Will Inherit the Earth?
In concluding, If you got the shot…buy your plot!
This was an easy decision for me to make. The fact that the government was pushing so hard for people to get this shot, even to the point of threatening us, made it even easier to see that their intents were not honorable or looking out for our health. There is no way these shots were tested properly, and the fact that covid is basically a bad cold for most people, made it a simple choice to not play into the hands of idiot politicians and their greedy, pathetic Big Pharma puppet masters. It’s beyond obvious that none of these clowns have anyone’s best interest at heart, and to be pushed into getting some shot that we have no real understanding of the long term effects on the human body, using fear tactics just angered me to no end. I don’t know anyone personally that died from covid, and half my family works in the medical profession, mostly as nurses. They all fell, hook, line and sinker for the shots, mainly, I believe, out of their unwillingness to admit that the health care industry is completely compromised, or at least the upper echelons of it are. They do whatever they are told to do in order to keep their jobs, and the consequences be damned. Lo and behold, they all have health issues themselves that are constantly flaring up, and they have no idea what is causing them. Flu shots, covid shots, shots here, shots there, shots everywhere, no questions asked. That’s not science or health, that’s playing Russian roulette with your own health.
I spent 40 years in healthcare as an administrator. Informed consent was one of the most important forms to have signed by a patient and was not available for this jab. I’m not an antivaxxer but after receiving a Flu shot in 1992 and becoming sick for two weeks and then developed an autoimmune disorder I’m very careful about any Pharma going into my body let alone one with no informed consent. Then I contracted C19 and was hospitalized for 18 days. Even my own children hardly talk to me anymore and I see my grandchildren about once a month under supervision. I ordered Ivermectin from AFLDS upon my diagnosis but the meds did not come until I was admitted to the hospital and they refused to allow me to have it brought to the hospital, instead they pumped me with Remdesivir. I have absolutely no regrets and pray that all the injured will receive help from the many Doctors out there speaking the truth and all the people that lost loved ones from the bioweapon C19 and the bioweapon jab will find comfort in the Lord. Man always disappoints God is always true. When the truth prevails families will come together once again but we must have justice for the evils!
First off, I had already been on a path of researching everything. The jab was no different. Did a lot of research. But there were some things that sent up some red flags. The fact that they said it was experimental. The way they tried to bribe people to get you to take it.
That was probably the thing that blew the whistle for me. If you have to bribe people to take it, something is not right here. And of course all of the lying and censoring added to the scheme. Wasn’t buying it from early on. Every other single person in my family got jabbed, and all my friends except for one. So I was an odd man out. I even butted head at work for refusing the jab and the masks. It later caused me to walk and retire early.
I waited as long as I could, but I did get the first jab and the second. Then, the “coincidental” problems started getting publicized. After researching, I started a “cocktail” of immune system supplements that I am still taking. Since then, I have had what I call colds that have affected only my upper respiratory tract with coughing and lots of phlegm. I had a slight fever for about 8 hours of the first one but none the second. They were no different than sicknesses I have experienced since a kid. I have no other conditions except being in my 70’s and a bit overweight but not morbidly obese. When I had the slight fever, my wife asked if I should get tested. To what end? If I started getting worse, I might consider it, but with all of the conflicting news about people being positive without symptoms and those being negative with many symptoms, I don’t trust a test either. I have refused any “boosters” even though my doc inquired about it in my last visit. He didn’t push; he dropped it totally. And, no matter what, I won’t ever get another mRNA shot.
When the lockdowns started I was amazed the American people rolled over and allowed such egregious overreach by the federal govt. I was deemed a necessary employee so just went on with my life. The lies from a govt I already didn’t trust increased exponentially, ivermectin and hydrocloriquine had been proven to aid in viral disease treatment but we’re suddenly all but banned by the govt. My natural distrust of the govt grew with each passing lie.
There is something more to the vaccine, some sinister built in effect, I don’t know what but I will not take it.
I will not be vaxxed.
I won’t eat the bugs.
I won’t surrender my freedom.
“Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teachings of righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.” Hebrews 5:13-14
“Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.” Ephesians 4:14
I chose not to take the experimental vaccine because I did not believe the hype…everything (cough, sneeze, headache, nausea, fatigue, etc. etc.) to nothing was a symptom…absolutely no guidance on improving or boosting your natural immunity was heralded by the mainstream media…isolation, masks, social distancing, and lockdowns were the screeched solutions. Fear was weaponized. The science was more political in nature than evidence based…
The timing was suspiciously synched with the start of the 2020 election cycle. The origin of the virus had tentacles that reached into our university systems, (both UNC and Harvard) with the exchange of grant monies and research connections.
There were sane voices from virologists and medical professionals that were being censored and dismissed without open and honest debate. The fix was in…
As a Truth seeker, I just couldn’t allow myself to be seduced or motivated by fear. I buckled up with the belt of truth and armored up with the shield of faith. My trust is in our Creator God. Careful reading of Scripture calls us to have eyes to see and ears to hear…
“For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible.
I highly recommend everyone read the entire book of Ephesians…”Be very careful, then, how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.” Ephesians 5:15-16
As Sundance has counseled us…”Live your best life“
My wife and I do not like to take medications. I am considered “elderly” in Florida. I am on zinc, d-3 and vitamin c. “Knock on wood”, I have not been sick since 2018 when I started to take them. We also live in a rural area with a low population.
I am a Physician.
I cared for patients throughout the pandemic offering the most compassionate, supportive care I could muster. During the early days of 2020, my partners and I scoured the literature looking for any data showing effective treatments. There were lone voices in the wilderness, Robert Malone, Peter McCullough, Paul Marik, Geert Vanden Bossche. For the first time in my professional career, voices and information that ran counter to the desired narrative were censored and suppressed.
I myself contracted Covid in October of 2020, before vaccines were available. There was already discussion about how the vaccines were “leaky” and would lead to new variants and that the inflammatory nature of the Spike protein was potentially harmful leading to ADE (antibody dependent enhancement). Even though the vaccine was being pushed on all medical personnel, I decided that, having natural immunity from the previous infection, the benefit was nil and risk of harm was NOT zero.
All of my extended family, being desperate, took the vaccine and all the boosters. My sister who had previously had lung cancer and had this successfully resected, experienced an aggressive recurrence during late 2021. She died in early 2022. I am convinced that the vaccine caused damage to her immune system and allowed this runaway disease. I was denied the right to visit my sister in her last days over my non-vaccinated status by my own family. Ironically, all my family has contracted Covid despite the boosters, including my dying sister, despite being “shielded” by her family.
I’m so sorry for your loss. Heartbreaking.
Forgot to mention: my final decision to refuse the vax came after reading Sundance’s analysis of it. God bless, Sundance, and thank you!
Natural immunity.
Why didn’t I take it?
First, all the people who I hate in the world, and I do hate them, and hate me in return pushed fascist mandates regarding the fake vax.
Look who pushed vax mandates. People who want to destroy my way of life for the greed of theirs.
Second, Packers QB Aaron Rodgers said this which just threw a brick through the window:
-When Trump was President all the Dems were screaming how unsafe the vax was. But then when the Communist Dems won the election they ALL pushed vax mandates. Suddenly it was “safe and effective.”
I work in a small office and haven’t had a problem. I almost had to take a test for a trade show in the God awful dump called Shitcago but at the last minute the trade show dropped all mandates.
I still hate Shitcago, though, because their mayor Lori Lightfoot is originally from my Ohio hometown and, true to Communist form, has spread multiple lies about our hometown in order to curry favor from the ignorant Shitcago press and Communist voters.
Also, word to the wise, Mount Carmel Health in Ohio is still requiring masks citing the CDC (Pfizer) as the reason. I did not comply.

The main thing that set me off was how ridiculously hard the government and media pushed the shots. That by itself was enough to make me never want them.
I remember seeing the lockdowns coming and the dread I felt. I knew they wouldn’t work or be limited to two weeks.
I remember thinking how ridiculous the mask thing was. I looked up studies on the topic that confirmed my suspicions…they were deleted or wouldn’t come up in search results only weeks later.
Every step of the way, truth was denied or covered up, and it continues to this day.
I mentally reached out to God and had the distinct sense that the vaccine was not for me. I might as well add here that when the whole covid thing began I likewise reached out and what came to me was John 3:16, which is familiar to many. It then occurred to me that God, so loving the world that He sent his Son into the world…that is ALL he sent. He did not send covid. So what could it be except that we humans believe there is a power besides God and so misinterpret all the love He is sending us, think it is a disease, and suffer accordingly. Here ends today’s sermonette 🙂 (well, you asked…)
Eight years ago I had cancer twice in an eight month period. I had already been doing research on alternative healing methods since cancer killed my Dad and Mom. After the second bout, I went alternative after my oncologist told me I was Stage 4 and my chance of getting it again in a 5 year period was 100%.
I asked the Doctors what else I could do to help myself and they offered nothing, even ridiculing at times various alternative healing ideas I Brought up to them.
So, when the second tumor was confirmed, I went vegan, exercised and added many supplements that others had credited to helping them with their cancer successes. I later added medical nutrition from Dr. Joel Wallach and added meat and some dairy back to my diet. With God’s blessing, I remain cancer free.
So…….when the main stream medical people started pushing the jab, it felt just like the oncologists pushing their poisons. I started resourcing many of the doctors and other indiependent physicians like Mikovits, Tenpenny, Cole etc and realized that these vaccines were just as dangerous as the vaccines that are forced on our kids. My wife and family did not respect my earlier experiences nor what I had learned from them. so far, they are ok. I am glad to say that they aren’t getting boosters. In fact, my wife asked the other day why all her friends who got boosted are getting Covid and the ones who did not are not getting it. Small victories. However I have lost three friends and a distant family member to sudden heart stoppages. All of my friends are not getting boosters or further boosters.
I fear we are just really getting into the beginning of the Hell that these vaccines have wrought and many, anymore will die, suffer or never be born because of the large decline in births the is being reported. (One OBGYN practice in Florida is reporting a 50% drop in new births in their practice.)
I pray everyday that God will deliver us through this terrible time.
I pray every day too, for my extended family members who believed the lie that God would heal and protect them. This is a great tragedy.
I am a retired RN, 92, and stopped taking Flue vaccines the 90s. I had a very bad reaction with the first one in the 90s. I have developed allergic reactions to several meds, foods, etc., so I am very careful about what I put into my body. I also study about any drug, or different things that go into my body. I was married to a Certified family physician for 36 years before we divorced due to his alcohol and prescription drug use among other things. In that access to the medical society, including every aspect of it, I witnessed the deterioration of the medical society. Medical schools, societies, medical magazines, and drug companies. And in the last 20 years, the hospital corporations which took over almost all hospitals. I supported my family while my husband went through Collage and Medical School. in the 50s.
Thanks to the internet, when the FLCCC doctors went on TV in June, 2020, I started consuming everything I could about Covid 19 and treatment. When my 2nd husband became ill in November 2020 and tested positive for Covid 19, I asked our Doctor for hydroxychloroquine and for him and also for me. He was completely well in 5 days. I never caught it…then. 6 months later when I had Covid 19, my doctor would not order Hydroxychloroquine again for me. Instead he ordered the IV mono antibody treatment. I had fever and symptoms for 7 – 10 days, felt terrible, fogy mind, etc.. After 2 months I went on the FLCCC Long Haul Protocol of Ivermectin, etc. I have been great ever sense. And I stay on the immune system over the counter natural drugs from the FLCCC. I was a missionary in South Korea for 11 years before I remarried 2005. Just recently I went back to visit all my friends there. My Doctor did honor my request to order Hydroxychloroquin for protection from any Variant of Covid 19, but ordered some tests to make it legal. I do have a lot of debilitating joint and muscle pain which make it legal. Yes, I am very Blessed to have a Doctor that respect me and my research, even though he is is a large Clinic that is licensed by the NIH. There are many details left out of this story, due to space limitations, and God is good, period
Hell no I would never trust the GOVT to tell the truth. When I seen them push this on all all media platforms I knew is was about payoff to big Pharm for campaign $$$ nothing more.
Only one in my immediate family was my nurse son forced.
I don’t trust the goverment, an they pushed to hard. I’m 70 an a diabetic…..but i said nope….ain’t gonna do it.
Fear not, for I am with you always. thus saith the Lord.
I play golf with a retired UPS pilot he told me yesterday many pilots and injured by the Vaccine. He says you will never hear this on the MSM he didnt take the shot his daughter did and now her immune system is shot
I was hard down for two weeks with the C19 virus during the first wave. After I recovered, my primary care doc pushed hard for me to take the vaccine, and I refused (he is no longer my primary care doc). Having spent 4 years on the Joint Staff, I also sensed something was not right from the onset of the C19 madness ( strategic coincidence and coordination). I now stay away from docs and look at food as medicine vice medicine as food. My opinion, but anyone who doesn’t see the totalitarian globalist agenda behind this mess is a fool. Fear has driven groupthink in the medical community and the general populace to lap up the pablum of the Hobbesian state. Suddenly we are seeing vaccines on the market for a variety of maladies to include cancer. The Malthusians are relentless, and it is clear that Satanic forces are at work. This isn’t over by any stretch of the imagination and I proudly—emphasize proudly—cling to my guns, religion and Bible. Stay strong, keep the faith, be not afraid.
Most doctors are under a corporate umbrella in my area, like Advent Health for example. You won’t hear any of them buck the corporate line. It is disgusting.
Thank yo for your service sir. My time in the ELINT community led me to understand that the government was lying about Iraq and WMD. Some years later as a contractor training Afghan SMW pilots, seeing up close the enormous waste in that war, I began to have the unease that I was part of the problem in the world at large and went to a company that trained predominantly that trained predominantly civilian pilots, although we did have ~35% military customer base. The point is, those experiences were key in honing my ability to see thru the COVID BS early on. Namaste.
