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.

The first lie about masks. Then changing the definition of vaccine. If the government is pushing it and demanding it, it’s not for me. And the number one reason is that I’ve never believed panic was anything but bad; “ Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on thine own understanding “. I don’t believe I will die one second before God decides and when He’s ready I’m ready. I had a heart transplant in March of 2021 , had congestive heart failure since 1998, and almost never wore a mask. I believe the lack of fear enabled me to make a good decision and stick to it. I did suffer because I stayed angry with the health community for being part of the problem. Thanks for asking.
God’s timing is perfect.
May God continue to bless you and keep you.
I did not take the jab because the survival rate statistics showed low death in all age strata. And because it was rushed into use without adequate time to study its safety and efficacy. Really a no brainer. Haven’t lost any friends over it but strained relationship with my daughter who is air force service member who was Forced into taking it. I fear for her future.
^ This.
I realized they were skewing the COVID death and infection numbers from the beginning, this made me cautious.
When the “vaccines” were introduced with mRNA I immediately knew it wasn’t for me. That was confirmed when it was revealed they had not passed safety trials. All the bribes and threats used to coerce compliance with the vaccines were huge red flags. How any free thinking person would blindly take them is something I cannot understand.
I did not take it but we all have friends and family who made the “vaccine” mistake out of fear to trust the wrong people. It’s frustrating for us because we tried to tell them. It’s also frightening for us because we fear for them now. If they are angry with us they are angry with the wrong people.
We need the whole truth now to help those who are suffering from the “vaccine” and prevent even more death and harm.
Those who knowingly pushed this danger must be held responsible and punished to the fullest extent of the law!
Did not even consider it – ever. I am anti-vax in general to begin with, especially for lame stuff like the flu.
My immune system functions just fine without the “science.”
I chose to distance myself from anyone who did get the vax, except for my son and son-in-law who both got it to keep their jobs (although I was not and still am not happy they caved)
No regrets – I don’t care what anybody thinks about my personal life choices.
Not going to jump on something that is under EUA and MRNA first use in humans – I’m not a lab rat. I figured early on by the numbers that COVID was similar to the flu. Personally I believe we need to exercise our immune system, so I don’t get the flu shot and will never get anything MRNA. Seeing the politicians and media pushing BS and attacking anything contradictory to the narrative made it very clear this is not for me.
Also noted the manipulation to first redefine the word vaccine so they could include something that does not do what a vaccine is supposed to do. Without that change there would be no EUA. Once you see the games they play you can’t un-see them.
I haven’t read other comments yet, but may add more after I read more.
It was during the summer of 2021 that the British Columbia provincial government started putting pressure on about getting the Vaxx. There was little research yet into the risks, but I registered with the health authorities along with my wife. Who was literally intimidated by her work authorities to conform. That aggression raised my cynicism to another level. And I began more study and realized that there were severe side effects and many unknowns.
Sure enough, 24 hours after my wife took the first jab she developed a lymph node lump on her shoulder. She went to a clinic, where the doctor was clueless.
Needless to say this confirmed my refusal to follow through and be a ‘good’ compliant citizen. And around this time the media blitz became intense and the demonization of the non compliant intensified.
And to add insult to injury, some months later my wife again was forced by her job for a second shot. She hadn’t suffered any further effects from the first jab . It’s easy to say she should have quit, but in real life circumstances were complicated.
There were no obvious side effects this time. Till six months later. When she suffered a heart attack. Being totally healthy before these jabs and never taking any medications, the connection seems obvious.
Luckily she is under competent care and recovering well. And says she never ever will take any other shots.
I was emailed a few times, telling me they were ready for me to get my jabs, and to make an appointment. I ignored those. But when the Trucker movement was in full swing the Trudeau regime made life extremely difficult for the unjabbed, being publicly branded as enemies of the state. No need to go into the day to day details and issues with the naive sheep.
My entire mindset has been radicalized by this situation. And for the first time, really understand on a deep existential level what’s at stake worldwide. And who the architects are orchestrating this.
As well, I have learned to adapt. Until it comes to the introduction of digital IDs, including bank accounts and health status, I can endure. But when the inevitable occurs (Canada likely being first) who knows?
“My entire mindset has been radicalized by this situation. And for the first time, really understand on a deep existential level what’s at stake worldwide. And who the architects are orchestrating this.”
Welcome to the Matrix, Matrix!! Canada is in a world of hurt, but I see promising signs of resistance out of Alberta. Sadly, BC is not Alberta.
Sorry about your wife.
Bonny Henry and the MoH in BC are hiding some dirt. All I will say is that a good FOI or two would expose a fair bit of interesting material, particularly about who was actually making decisions. Sadly very few people in Canada seem to care enough to file FOIs.
There’s always the example of the Vietnamese boat people.
I was working in the Immunology field for a small company building the market leading data analysis and visualization tool for clinical and therapeutic use, a new field for me in 2015. Surrounded by PhDs in Immunology, I took a crash course in Immunology and Epidemiology to grasp what I needed to know to do my job leading an Agile transformation and CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Delivery) makeover of out small software team, along with preparing for FDA regulation and certification of our product as Medical Device Software.
Long story short, we were positioning ourselves to be bought by one of the big players in the larger field, which we succeeded in doing by 2018. In 2020, I was hospitalized with a systemic blood infection, hypertension, and cardiac issues, near death. I went into the hospital in late January 2020, spent 6 weeks having transfusions, antibiotic treatments, in preparation for open heart surgery deemed urgent.
I watched the goings-on in the hospital during my recovery thru February 2020, and began to observe a change come over the medical establishment late February. Visits from my coworkers had kept me informed of the goings-on of the Covid emergence. Our customers were labs and research facilities, our founder was highly placed in the NIH, we were intimately involved in clinical trials and other activities going on around the globe.
I saw the change creeping in to the medical and research professions. Gain of Function was something that we were very good at measuring. Analysis for PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) testing was another of our strengths. I was intellectually well prepared while recovering in hospital to grasp that Covid was a very troubling thing, institutionally.
I was discharged the first week of March, literally just days before the lockdowns and masking hit. I was on Long Term Disability leave, and lived alone in my little flat in the Cascade foothills of SW Oregon. I watched in horror as the response to Covid unfolded, both online and in my visits for tests and checkups to the hospital, and my visits to town for food. I saw the masks go up, I saw the directional arrows appear on the floor of the local Safeway, the plastic shields appearing at every service point, even the info signs on the I-5 Freeway telling me to ‘Mask Up’, ‘Stay Home’, ‘Shelter in Place’. Being reasonably intelligent, already very much awake to the depredations of Leviathan, and living under cover as a liberty-minded free thinker in a community of Left Wing tools, I knew that what was unfolding was monumentally corrupt and global in scope.
I had the luxury of spending the remainder of 2020 in recovery from home, watching the madness unfold. I had determined that the entire world had changed for the worse, and I also saw that the field in which I was working was complicit in the unfolding Crime against Humanity. I determined to withdraw as far as I could from the maddening crowds, and found refuge in a tiny little retired gas station way out in extreme SE Oregon, as far as one could get, in the sage desert of the Basin and Range.
I heard talk of vaccines coming, I saw the corruption unfolding with the abuse of the PCR tests, I already knew well the mendacity of the Global health and political communities, and it became a principle of my remaining life to resist further medical intervention and do my part to protest the madness. My little town had 200 people in it, and the big town of 15,000 with the grocery store was 75 miles away south across the state line into Nevada. I became a personal crusader against masking, my utterly refusing to comply, whereever I went.
The thing the struck me the most as 2020 unfolded and 2021 began, besides the theft of the election from PDJT, was the absolute blasphemy of the mask and lockdown movement. I had self-secluded on purpose, and my exposure to other human beings was something the I planned and capitalized on in my visits out into the local world. Everything I saw, both in person and online, of the effects of the masking drove home to me the absolute insanity and inhumanity behind it. I was fully awakened to the Evil that was afoot in the world, and determined to resist it with every ounce of my newly recovered life.
I have never been a flu shot taker. When I went into the hospital, that was the first time in 40 years that I had seen a doctor. It had become a foundational first principle to me to never trust authority of any sort; question everything. It was an easy choice for me to resist and refuse the ‘vaccination’ when it arrived; the unfolding demonization and inhuman urging of vaccination upon everyone, from infants up absolutely convinced me that I was in the right. Observing the destruction of businesses thru lockdowns, the isolation of terminal old folks left to die alone behind plastic shields, watched by masked faces, all reassured me in my steadfast devotion to resistance of the unfolding Evil.
And, at heart, I had been given the Gift of Life with the interventions that took me out of the workforce and into self-imposed exile from Society in early 2020, by the Lord God above. I have since cultivated that still, small Voice of God in my soul and conscience, and I had nothing but affirmation from by prayers and beseeching that I had been spared death, and prepared for some mission in life that I still seek to understand. God told me that what was happening all around me was the work of Evil, and that he had prepared a table for me, before mine enemies.
I believe that the fellowship here at CTH was a big part of my recovery and revival, and it comes as no surprise to me that 80 some percent of the folks that frequent the Treehouse have also resisted the whispered and shouted words of the Serpent to vax up, mask up, and lock down. The Treehouse, under Sundance’s care and husbandry, became my Tree of Life, and Tree of Knowledge, and I was led here from out of the hell and perdition of a corrupted society by God above. I discovered here that I was not alone in my resistance, my disgust and abhorrence, and my complete denial and disavowal of what had become of not only the medical establishment which I was a small part of, and owe my life to, but to the degenerated secular society of the World as a whole.
God bless Sundance, and everyone here. Continue to resist, seek and speak Truth in everything, love your neighbor until they prove themselves unworthy, give a smile to everyone, and every open, unmasked face that you see, open your heart to those worthy, question your soul until you find your spirit, and know your purpose.
We are the Remnant, and it falls to us to rise to the occasion and rebuild the world. Say Hallelujah!
Long story not so short, but you asked for it!
Wow. When I sat down to ponder and start writing this, there were 63 previous reponses. When I posted it finally, there were nearly 500! I’ll be up all night reading and getting to know each of ya’ll.
God Bless!
You are blessed, Jeff. In so many ways. You’ve got your health, your peace, and God. Your priorities are in order. You’ve discovered this site where like minded people meet. Could you want for more?
I can’t think of a single thing…blessings always. Bet.
Betsy, love and warmth to you. I am learning every day just how little I really need.
I’m so glad for you, my friend. And yes…t’is true. A gift to recognize it. What is important in this life, and what isn’t. It is very freeing. God bless you.😘
God speed.
very uplifting. thank you, friend.
A blessed Testimony. May the Lord continue to bless you and keep you. I believe that He gave the words that you just “spoke” to you, for the benefit of countless others.
Thank you, Brother. God bless and keep you always!.
Wow. That was a POWERFUL story. I believe one of the purposes that God has for you is to write! I could have kept reading for a long time should you have written more. The Lord has drawn near to you as you have drawn near to Him. And no doubt, you are drawing others to Him as well. Thank you for sharing and may the Great Physician be your ever-present source of healing.
I didn’t because by the time it was even available, I knew too much about low cost, effective treatments with decades of safe use.
They were suppressing this information while pushing something that had no long term effectiveness or safety data.
What I did know personal in early 2021 is that four healthy people had died of heart attacks within two weeks of the jab in my social network. One was my grandmother’s cardiologist.
Then when they started to force it on all of us holdouts it was clear that both the engineered virus and the jab were designed to kill us. Just like Event 201 describes in fall of 2019.
I feel fortunate to have the time, curiosity and critical thinking skills to figure this out and tried to pass it on to others.
Sometimes I was successful other times not.
In general most of our extended family managed to avoid being forced or didn’t buy into what they were selling. Some even moved to different States.
Our family is very conservative in general but the ones that did get jabbed are very liberal.
Ironically, my parents, in there late 70s, got it in the spring of this year after attending a vacation with the pro jab faction, big FJB supporters, completely clueless about basic reality. One became actively sick.
Fortunately, I had convinced both of them to not get jabbed and stock the Frontline Doctors treatments.
Both came through fine saying they have had worse illness in the past. I told them these treatments and vitamins would have worked on those as well. Much better than treatments that reduce the symptoms but do nothing to improve your immune systems health.
The two people I couldn’t stop were both my daughters close to getting their medical degrees. I pleaded with them to move to different State, take a year off etc. No luck.
So I had them fully loaded with the protocols, which includes asprin to fight clotting.
Plus on d-dimer testing to see if they needed stronger anti clotting meds. d-dimer detects clotting in capillaries which is what causes tissue death. Both of them had normal levels.
It feels like we are living in end times.
Yes…it does.

I did not take it as I resented the pressure that was all around us. I was suspicious about why they were so determined to ram that needle into everyone. Something did not feel right. So I did some research on it. I did not like what I find out and I did not want anything, food or medication where aborted baby parts/tissue played any part in the manufacture of it. ( I was shocked at how much they use aborted tissue to test food(taste) it sickened me. Also, Mike Lindell stated he was not going take it as it seemed to be the first step to ‘the Mark of the Beast’. I agreed. I want nothing forced on me, no passport to say I had had a vaccine, for whatever reason, no chip inserted and no so-called vaccine, that was not a vaccine., but a sinister shot full of nasty stuff.
My MD was all for it and admonished me for not wanting it. He tried for 20 mins to convince me but it was obvious he did not know what I knew, and told me I was wrong not to take it even if was just for the benefit of others. and that my info was all wrong and untrue. I have taken lots of vaccines in my life, no problem The last one was for Shingles, a new type, two shots. It did not work for me. I still get shingles. I used to dutifully get flu shots. Never again after this. I also though the survival rates were good.
I also was really angry at how the medications were not available, to make the shots ‘okay to be used’ in its non-tested state because it was an ’emergency’. That was also a dead giveaway there was something sinister about this so called Vaccine. and the way they insulted people who preferred not to take it, dividing people against each other. Very Nasty. I was ‘dangerous’ and a little odd, as I was a Christian. Now there is the blood transfusion problem These mRNA gene therapies are probably here to stay The whole story of the virus and the convenient population-reducing shot , and the stuff coming out of the WEF is really creepy and smacks of End Times horrors.
So despite have some health issues and not a young person, I refused the ‘vaccine’ confidently. I got Covid(Delta) in 2021. and recovered, I had the weird symptoms many people had, but am fine, and so glad i did it the natural way, (vit D etc) as i am now immune. PS My MD was not too interested in hearing about how I recovered or in my way of treating it and suggested i get a shot for the next type of Covid emerging. Groan.
I suspected there was a “flu” going around southeastern New England in mid Fall of 2019 when several of the weekly clients I see for my job became ill.
Nothing serious—but a bit more severe than the typical seasonal flu.
Fast forward to a Christmas Disney trip in December of 2019 where my cousin’s husband and then my mom became sick with this “flu”. I finally came down with it at the end of January.
Put me in bed for two days with typical symptoms, but by day three I was feeling better.
By the end of February “Corona virus” hysteria was in full bloom and my former state of RI (I now reside in sunny central FL) basically shut down on March 13, 2020 (I lost 80% of my small business and a boatload of income for my retirement!!!).
I immediately began doing research (I have a BS degree and took Microbiology, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, etc. in college) and knew something was “UP” when I read about Event 201 and when I saw that lying piece of TURD Tony Fauci (who pushed the deadly drug AZT during the 80’s/90’s AIDS crisis) doing press conferences with DJT.
Then the UTTER NONSENSE of two weeks to flatten the curve, lockdowns, cloth masks (I mean face diapers), social distancing, one way aisles in the supermarkets, state governors deciding what businesses were “ESSENTIAL” (of course liquor stores NEVER CLOSED!!!!), the nauseating Andrew Cuomo, etc. etc. etc.
By the time OWS was announced, I was telling everyone within earshot that the mRNA gene therapy JABS ARE NOT vaccines (of course the CDC subsequently changed the definition of vaccine and vaccination).
I was pleading with people to read the Great Barrington Declaration and listen to COMPETENT Doctors like Mike Yeadon, Peter McCullough, Ryan Cole, Jay Bhattacharya, Harvey Risch, Martin Kulldorf, etc.
And I wasn’t keen on the jab ingredients, the EUA, and claims that it would “prevent” transmission.
Neither myself nor my elderly parents received the death clot jabs.
I have relatives and friends (with big time buyer’s remorse now) who had to choose between jab(s) and job.
I think WuFlu and the mRNA jabs are the biggest propaganda psyop campaign in the history of mankind.
The collusion between the DOD, BIG PHARMA, BIG TECH, the Davos ELITES, and politicians around the world regarding WuFlu and the GREAT RESET is indisputable
Excess mortality and the sudden deaths of healthy young people worldwide after the rollout of the jabs is chilling.
Check you batch and pray if you were jabbed!

Retired RN in Canada (now – worked through Covid till put on unpaid leave because of no vax. Retired 2 1/2 months later – got first pension payment the day my hospital fired all unvaxxed staff). I declined because I had a bad reaction to my one & only flu shot (ended up having brain surgery); because I read a lot & understood that it wasn’t a real attenuated or live vaccine, that it made the body produce part of the virus (the “bad part” ie spike protein) first & then expected the body to make antibodies against *that* – it seemed a recipe for autoimmune issues (which I already had – multiple allergies, carry epipen). Also, because I read stats and knew fairly early on that largely older people were affected by Covid – and in my province in long term care, were made DNR, and palliated to death if tested positive, *not* sent to hospital. 😠 The hospital I worked in was empty, closed clinics, laid off staff, etc. And finally, I worked with dialysis patients (which is why I wasn’t laid off 😶) – almost the most immune compromised and in terrible health people you can imagine, who all did fine pre vax. They were exposed to Covid, didn’t get sick. (And they were all part of a Vitamin D study, so had good levels 🤔). None died until post vaccine (and died with clots, thrombocytopenia, and cardiac issues). There! That’s my story..(my husband and I & one son remain unvaxxed. Other 2 vaxxed – one vehemently disagreed & we have lost most contact with him & family (2 grandkids ☹️) – oldest son vaxxed to get to Germany where he’s doing a PhD. We don’t talk about it, so still get along – just had them here visiting for 3 weeks – his wife & 2 young sons)
I didn’t take it, nor did my husband and five children. I believed they were developing a bioweapon as soon as they started talking up the vax as they were developing it as I follow a lot accounts critical of the NWO. My young adult children decided against it based on their own research and my sharing my conviction that it would only harm them. One son had an uncomfortable Summer (2021) sweating telling his boss that he would not take it. He was a remote employee, but their company is in healthcare and Pharma adjacent. Once he explained his reasoning, his boss was very supportive and was bothered that he had feared for his job. He has had to skip a couple of conferences, but no problems aside from that. Another son had to do his senior year of college in his bedroom because he refused the jab. He never told his friends, who would likely not have understood, but he has lost the most in our family. My husband was pressured by his company to take it but I begged him not to. He was terrified he was going to lose his career since they were mandating it. I told him we’d sell the house, our college kids could take a break, we’d move somewhere cheaper and figure it out. As it happened, in the fall to winter of 2021 his company (a large bank) suddenly didn’t care if people were vaxxed or wore masks anymore. No explanation. They just pretended like it was never a thing. I thank God he didn’t buckle, only to have them be indifferent months later. As our son said when facing his own prospect of being fired…”I can always get another job, but I only have one body”.
As for relationships, some are fractured, many are fine. It’s hard to want to maintain a relationship with people when you don’t respect their judgement or character. Too many people who assumed we were vaxxed said monstrous things about people who were reluctant or unwilling to take it. It’s been very clarifying.
yes, clarifying on many levels.
I’ve been a Conspiracy Realist for years. My brother learned about the NWO 35 years ago and kept me abreast of the plan to take us down. So when this crap hit I knew what it was (as agenda 21 was being rolled out) and knew not to take the jab. Never wore a mask. If required in a building I didn’t go. I pushed back against pushers with facts I learned from Dr. Mercola, Dr. Sherry Tenpenney, Front Line Dr’s. and all the others mocked and shut down. My mom got it though, and it killed her after getting Myocarditis. I know pharms are protected but I’m praying there is a class action down the road because I will be first in line.
Blustery Alex Jones has been right more than Fauci… Fauci is a disgrace to this country.
Because I do not trust the Government ,nor what it is telling us everyday. It was experimental and did not want to find out later it was a mistake. Plus I know that these people in power are very Evil and do not care one bit about people like me who work for a living.
Everything I have heard so far tells me I am one of the lucky ones who did not get sucked into being part of an experiment.I would have left my job if they mandated me to take the shot. I started to develop a small amount of hope years ago when I heard A politician speaking (Ted Cruz ) and I even sent him a small amount of money. I never thought in a million years I would ever do that . sent a small amount of cash to that guy in California who was running against that old racist black woman who if a complete fraud (Maxine waters) and Trump too I sent a couple bucks. but never again will I make the mistake of giving my hard earned cash to any of them. I guess at this point they pretty much wrecked this country and I’ll never see that change in my lifetime. Greed,Graft and lying SOB’s all of them.
I know that a lot of them took saline shots on TV to convince people to be lab rats. My faith would start to make a come back if I saw anyone of these grifters face a jury. Like Adam shitforbrains ,Maxine Waters,Pelosi ,and the list is way to long to compile ,but you know them all. Let me see one of them get what they deserve and I’ll perk up. What they really need to do is build a wall around DC and deliver food to them. Just the basics and cut all communication from behind the wall. and then we can all start over with a real government with a “Real President ” who was really elected by real people who filled out a ballot .
I was not willing to participate in an uncontrolled clinical trial when the government was denying treatment with Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine that reportedly was having a positive impact early on. Companies could not have gotten emergency use authorization without banning treatments that reportedly worked. There was no emergency. It seemed clear given the mask mandates and lock downs that our health and welfare was the furthest thing on their greedy, sick minds. I was not fearful of C-19 and never got it.
Big Pharma’s liability protection for a rushed vaccine with no control group for the vaccine studies were my initial reasons. All the government data seemed fishy to me. All that we have learned since the clot-shot came out was confirmation.
“Pandemic of the unvaccinated” my ass!
I stand by my Captain Obvious prediction of massive lawsuits once the fraud is proven.
No, God told me not to
I have worked in pharma contract research organizations and firsthand seen profit over ethics.
There was not enough time for it to be possible to evaluate the safety of a regular drug. Much less an entirely new and unproven technology. It could not have been determined to be safe.
Also, even if it actually worked with no side effects. This is very different and a much higher degree of difficulty to manufacture than a simple little drug molecule like tylenol or such. It would be much easier for something to go wrong and if it were to be wrong it would be very bad potentially since it is mRNA. 1 percent different on something like that can be way worse than having 1 percent less tylenol.
I knew someone who worked with mRNA as a student and said that it was super unstable and she didn’t think it would still be active by the time it was manufactured, stored, transported, stored, and then used by injectors.
The far right and the far left both agreed that it was bad for fertility from the very beginning. When both of those groups agree, it tends to make one curious.
Early on and before the vaccines were developed it was shown that ivermectin could in 1 dose around 12 hours reduce viral load 1000x or more in cultures. That provided a treatment that was very well established with decades of safety data if I were to get sick.
This is a virus. The flu is a virus. From a profit motive, it was clear that if a vaccine was ever developed and taken that it would be required yearly similar to the flu vaccine.
Covid and the vaccine were using emotion of fear to control people. Perhaps I am a tad autistic and was more resistant to emotional appeal.
I knew they were lying about masks based on the size of the pores and size of the virus and that no one could wear them without gaps around ones face. Masks are like trying to stop a gnat with a chain link fence when it comes to viruses. Common sense says all the cashiers at the grocery stores should have died within the first two weeks since we were all there if covid was as terrible as it was made out to be. If those were obvious lies, then why would I trust what they say about vaccines.
I had been reading the treehouse and seeing the obvious lies around Trump. Both of these cause me to be less likely to believe in things that officials and the TV say. As you say, once you see the strings. I may not see many of the strings yet, but pharma I know something about so it is easier to see.
I was willing to get sick and had plans to acquire ivermectin, locations saved of mobile hydration centers to call if needed, and a plan to request travel to a very red state for hospital treatment if necessary.
I am very deep in the closet about my vaccine status. Only people whom I know would be okay with it also know. I tried to encourage my parents not to get it. They were thinking about it. But thankfully they got covid before they did that and haven’t gotten it since they have ‘natural immunity ‘ now.
I have learned that people are not reasonable and can not be reasoned with around the topic of covid. It is a belief system.
Also the manufacturers have complete immunity from lawsuits. That is a neon red flag.
And, even if my rational questions or objections to it were answered, it is also my religious belief against it.
And in case it helps anyone:
I never disclose my vaccination status to any medical provider, because in my area and in most places that means you WILL receive substandard care. They can’t force you to answer any question. Also, if you tell one provider anything it will be uploaded in that encounter in you electronic medical record (EMR) into a state database and shared with all other providers. At least that is how it works in my state unless you really dig and opt yourself out of the central statewide medical database. Given that it is a state database then it seems some records may be difficult to verify if in a different state and in a different medical system.
Autistics unite!
I thank God for critical thinking skills and have been an ardent reader of alternative media for quite some time. Never crossed my mind to take this poison. Right off the bat I followed medical professionals that were sounding the alarm in all the possible side effects knowing there was not adequate testing.
I was ready to quit my job if I couldn’t get a religious exemption knowing full well what was in the shots.
I am blessed to be living in SD even though Kristi Noem was a squish regarding employment …if you don’t like your companies mandate find another job.
I am not a shrinking violet and make my opinions heard. At this point I just don’t give a shit whose sensibilities I hurt.
Sundance……your site have been a most proven source of information for me going back to pre-2016 election.
Could you please indulge me and post the photo of 45 In the back of the limo laughing with his tie loosened?
Love you man….thank you!
PS….got the Rona in Fall of 2021 and it was as like a 2 week hangover….
Persian Gulf Syndrome from the two experimental vaccines gave me a new perspective. The adjuvant added to the vaccine caused a cytokine storm which still attack my joints 30+ years later.
I knew from dayone it didnt make sense. We all lnew they hadto stop Trump and when the most sinister names on the planet say get it….uou dont want it!
I knew the lockdown was a scam, day one!
.
I knew our G-d given natural immune system is amazing and robust.
.
But I knew by the Grace of the Lord, that the jab was poison.
.
May the Lord of Hosts have His revenge on these evil perpetrators that did this thing and anyone who aided and abetted.
Logic,
Anything the Gvts and left are pushing this hard has got to be a bad idea!
I didn’t take the mRNA gene therapy (these products aren’t vaccines in the traditional sense) because:
1- I didn’t trust a technology which lacks studies over it’s medium and long term effects.
2- I didn’t like an untested, experimental technology that would interfere with my body’s DNA and RNA.
3- I know that every attempt to develop vaccines against coronaviruses in the past, going back decades, has resulted in total faliure.
Why would this time be different?
4- The Western Governments started with mandates, ignored natural inmunity, told BLATANT lies -the “vaccine” only works if everyone takes it, WTF?, military grade psyops on the populace, and trampling of citizens’s body autonomy.
5- As soon as the first vaccines were administered to the older and high risk population, an elderly acquittance had a fatal heart attack within 48 hours of taking it. He had heart issues, yes, but not life threatening and very well taken care of with top Health Care.
I haven’t received mistreatment, open criticism or harrasement from family or friends, except they were worried I could get very sick if infected.
My unvaccinated status has seriously limited my hability to travel and attend social events.
I am very, very grateful to Sundance and team for the invaluable information provided by the TCTH regarding this pandemic. I will never forget that it was reading TCTH, around January 3/ 2020, when I first heard about it.
Thank you Sundance, with gratitude.
I did take the first two Pfizer – only because my husband was still trusting the government and medical “experts” and it would have hurt our relationship. As he has realized more of what the truth about the vaccine is, he got one booster and was fine with me not getting a booster. And he has now said he will not be getting any more boosters. I’m thankful there have been so many doctors speaking out about the problems – hopefully waking up many!!
Easy answer. Experimental, emergency use authorization and no credible history. Never had a flu shot either. Same for my wife. Anyway, pretty sure I caught the covid in June 2020, could have been a flu but never had that before. We isolated home for a few weeks which we rather enjoyed lol and was really only sick a few days with a bad fever and then a annoying residual light cough. BTW, got it officialy again this past June, 2 yrs later. Wasn’t a problem just a minor cold for 3-4 days and then that stupid cough again for two weeks even after testing negative on a home kit.however this time it ran thru the family, wife, daughter and my 6 month grandson. Of course all the concern was for him but guess who tolerated it the best? He only had some sniffles no better or worse than teething but he tested positive. Interesting side note. My daughter got jabbed only a few weeks before finding out she was pregnant. I won’t lie there was some hushed concern on my part but all is well.
Retired military officer…pharmacist. Worked retail pharmacy after retirement until August 2021. Refused to administer the “vaccine” for reasons I thought were obvious. Gave my superiors a written evaluation of the dangers of the “vaccine” and reasons for my refusal to administer it, but they thought otherwise, so I quit. Many of them now have major medical issues from taking it themselves.
You never use an mRNAtherapy for a non-targeted entity. The Covid mRNA therapy affects every cell in the body, indiscriminately (in this case to illicit an overall systemic response). However, every cell then also becomes a target for the immune system (including the immune system itself).
mRNA therapy for targeted tissues (like cancer) is genetically engineered to affect that specific type of tissue (as the cancerous tissue is analyzed and coded for the mRNA to target that specifically). Otherwise (as in this process) protein molecules are produced by every cell of the body by the therapy….to trigger the immune response……..the immune system (already compromised) hyper responds and we have accelerated disease processes and acute inflammatory issues (including clots).
real vaccines work differently. Attenuated viruses are administered to to create the response from the immune system to create antibodies. These viruses can not reproduce and do not overwhelm the system. They do not illicit a response by all the cells in the body to produce proteins (known as spike proteins) that are supposed to trigger the immune system.
wrong idea from the beginning…especially with viable treatments that were denied to the American public for political and financial reasons………those of us in the medical field that listened in physiology and immunology class knew this…you may have needed some didactic reasoning abilities (lacking in most recent graduates from healthcare colleges) to figure it out. Why so many followed the recommendations of the government and the media.were simply those who passed their basic courses without thinking, cheating or being politically or financially motivated.
Pretty sure I caught it in Dec 2019 and, when Trump mentioned HCQ, I researched OTC alternatives immediately and found Quercetin. We’ve been taking it daily with zinc, vits A/B/C/D/E and have not had even a sort throat for longer than 30 minutes since then. I’m very grateful to have learned about zinc ionophores in 2020.
I think everyone learned lot about natural alternatives! I guess that’s the silver lining.
Did not take it nor did any of our adult children or grandchildren. We don’t particularly trust our govt. in the first place but will say initially due to the rapid spread of Covid it did have us more than concerned. So in the beginning our family played it safe by not having our usual dinner gatherings or impromptu visits and basically stayed home other than what was necessary. Our dil is a R.N. who treated Covid patients and didn’t want the vax. Thankfully her religious exemption was eventually granted. She kept us apprised of what was happening at the hospital and what drs & other nurses were discussing amongst themselves about the vax. A good bit contradicted what we heard or read. There were multiple red flags that convinced us not to get the vax. A few were 1) Fauci pushing it & his own contradictions, 2) liability exemptions for co’s producing the vax, and Drs. and other experts getting banned from expressing opposing recommendations/opinions. It became quite clear those behind pushing the vax were more interested in control and money but certainly not our health.
I’m very fortunate that all of my family members and our friends are like minded so none of this had a negative impact on our relationships whatsoever.
I bet Bill Gates is just salivating at the thought of finding that string of DNA that results in distrust of the govt.
#1 In my 60plus years, I have had several experiences that have led me to be a bonified SKEPTIC.
I have seen first hand the Lies and Deception that our.gov specializes in.
#2 A couple months into the scamdemic, I developed symptoms and called my Dr. to see if i needed to be tested. Was told no, only if I were really sick. I had already been researching and reading the usual Alternative News sites and came across the info on Ivermectin and being the hog farmer that I am, I had a bottle on hand. Took the dosage reccomended by Frontline doctors and healed myself. Neighbors who were sick at the same time got tested and one developed pneumonia, I gave them the articles to read and they took the Iver also. Cured us all, with no side effects. Which I knew there would be none anyhow due to the knowledge that I had knowing that Ivermectin has been used for decades in the African nations to Deworm and Delouse the Natives there.
#3 The Ever Evolving and Never Ending Lies that we were told through the Media, CDC, .Gov etc etc
#4 I have refused every vax & booster etc including Tetanus that have been recommended to me by the Medical field ever since I completed the vax that the Army gave me back in the 70’s
I didn’t take the shot because I worked as a nurse during the peak of the pandemic when we were having to ration ppe and I never got covid. So I refused to take the experimental jab in order to keep my job. I retired instead.
I’m a physician in PNW. First became suspicious with the roll out of the ridiculous statistical projection of how many people were going to die of covid from UW. Then the aggressive mask and social distancing push knowing that in last 25 years docs have never advocated mask wearing in healthy individuals for prevention of viral disease. Never even heard of social distancing as an infection control strategy until Covid. Bribes for getting the vaccine just went too far.
Refused to tell patients to get the vaccine ( not many asked) , declined it myself and lost my job because I refused to comply with Inslee’s mandate.
Hospitals still requiring masks despite recent trials showing no benefit.
Our medical system is run by idiots.
Thank you for your integrity. You are among a small of handful of real heroes. If only more had chosen to respect their oath much of the harm to society could have been avoided.
I was following theautomaticearth.com daily as Covid started. Ilargi posted the “R naught” contagion factor daily and it was clear that Covid was not as virulent or deadly as the news and government were making it out to be. Then shortly after when the vax mandates threatened my job, I decided that I would retire before subjecting myself to an experimental “vaccine” that was based on an entirely new rMNA formula.
So I held off, and luckily the mandate was defeated for gov contractors such as myself, my son, and his soon-to-be bride. Also my wife was against taking the shot. Prior to the court decision that struck down the vax mandate for private government contractors, I had submitted a well-crafted religious exemption letter that my company accepted, much to my surprise.
But I was fully prepared to let go of my lucrative high-paying consulting gig if it came to that. My son’s CEO called him directly before the mandate was lifted and told him that their company was not going to require the vax. His fiance’s company never enforced the mandate, and my wife’s employer asked for vaccine status (which she never provided) but also did not require taking the jab.
When the reports of adverse reactions started pouring in, I knew I had probably saved my life by not getting vaxxed. Then reports by Dr.Ryan Cole of cancer re-occurrence at 20x rates, and that reinforced my decision, as I am a cancer survivor (going on 5 years).
I have been taking vitamin supplements for years, and have a strong natural immune system, but as a precaution, began taking Quercetin, Zinc, and Vit. D regularly since Covid began.
I personally know of 2 persons who died within 6 months of getting the vax shot–one a very close friend. And a cousin and another friend both have had strokes, fortunately not debilitating.
However, all my co-workers (gov contractors) got the vax and are sick often. I expect the ones who got the booster more than once will die.
My personal PA never asked me to get the vaccine, or asked if I had gotten it.
My condolences to those who got hoodwinked into getting the poison, or had no other alternative due to job loss if they didn’t.
I have lost all faith and confidence in our medical system for deviating from the “first do no harm” doctrine of medicine. The ridicule and shaming by health care personnel to those who refused to get jabbed will not be forgotten. There should be some serious ramifications for them for what they have done. Many of those doctors and nurses have died as a result of getting vaxxed, and I have no sympathy to offer them.
It was an EUA. I couldn’t imagine they had done the proper safety testing, figured they’d skipped steps or taken short cuts to get it out there. Additionally, if you read any of the inserts on any drugs the FDA does “approve” & see all the adverse effects or get into the weeds on the flu shots …. I don’t trust any of it. The more time that went by, the more sure I was I’d made the right decision. I said fairly early (to those willing to listen) that at some point in the future “unvaxed” was going to be the desired status & that is proving true. Last but not least, there is nothing so complex and wonderful as the immune system that God blessed me with …. and I trust HIM.
I didn’t take it…
I saw the rona for what it was, and instinctively knew that a vax would be part of the plan.
Yes, I lost friends and family. So far, time hasn’t fixed that part of it. I’m okay with it.
I also gained a whole lot of new additions to my circle of friends as we united in our view of the jab…as well as social distancing and masking.
I also gained a closer relationship with my sister because of it, while she lost her son, DIL, and as a result her grandchildren.
Fortunately, my job with the postal service was never in jeopardy over the issue, for which I thank God. I suspect that a large percentage of my craft (rural carrier) also refused to take the jab. Many of us were willing to walk out the door if it had been required.
My husband (73) and I (69) have never had a flu shot, and we weren’t about to start with this whole mess. Right out the gate my husband began researching, watching everything the Frontline Docs put out along with soooo many others who were anti-vax. We began a supplement protocol almost immediately, and when we both got C in the fall of 2020 it was a fairly mild case with some aches and pains and a couple weeks of fatigue. At our age, the naps off and on during the day were a welcome thing! We shared what we felt was truth with everyone we knew, especially our kids. None of our kids (all grown) took it, but our daughter-in-law had to take it for her govt funded job with the homeless. We never lost friends or family over it, but this was not the hill we were willing to die on anyways. The gospel and our pro-life stance are the only hills we will die on.
I actually was physically assaulted at our local grocery store by a man maybe a bit older than me. Grabbed my arm and yelled at me about not wearing a mask. I explained that I can’t wear one (no other explanation needed) and he continued to yell at me. Another lady who walked in at the same time as me got involved and the man walked away. We called the police and they looked at the security camera and went to his home. The man was so angry, but the officer explained that his actions were considered assault and possible charges would be brought. I never called the officer back to see what happened to him, but I knew if it ever happened again I would be MUCH more vocal about it. Just stunned me that someone would actually grab me! Final thoughts: we have absolutely NO regrets whatsoever.
My B.S. meter went up in the beginning, Dec 2019, when the US media was ignoring the China Flu outbreak. Then when Trump impeachment #2 failed, and I watched the media do a 180 & went into 24/7, constant fearmongering. I knew a nasty virus was going around, but I never did or would ever believe the death numbers coming out of NJ & NY in the spring of 2020.
Fast foward to Dec 2020, I caught the China Flu. I’m a pretty fit 60 yr old (Runer/Triathlete/Lift Wts) and I didn’t have any issues with CV-19. This was the month that the vax’s rolled out and it was being administered by age & by profession. As a Military Contractor I could’ve jumped the head of the line, but I thought since I already had CV-19 I didn’t need it and didn’t want to take a Vax from much older people who would need it (there was a shortage in my SW WA County) and also something in the back of my head was thinking I should wait it out and see if they (the vaccines). would work.
I then sat back and watched the different phases that were being employed to entice people into takeing the vax. At 1st the Vax was voluntary, then they went into the phase of bribeing people (In WA your “fully vax’d proof entered you in a $million dollar lottery), then it went into the forced/mandated phase under President Magoo.
In the spring of 2021, an old Army Buddy I served with, had a Mother (Mid 70’s) die of a massive stroke 2 weeks after her 1st pfizer jab. By then I was already researching the vax( hell I was already researching the whole China Flu psyops campaign since Dec 2019) and I asked him what the Dr’s told his Family. Of course they told them the Vax had nothing to do with the stroke.
As I stated above, I’m a Military Contractor and I train mainly Army & a few Air Force units in WA State. In the summer of 2021 I started seeing “fully vax’d” Army soldiers catching the China Flu, and their cases were’nt mild. It was at this time I made the decision not to take the China Flu Vax.
Around Nov 2021, my Company rolled over to the Sec Def Floyd Austin’s vax mandate & required all of us to be “fully vax’d” by 4 Dec 2021, then they pushed the date to Mid Jan 2022. During that time, a Federal Judge stepped in & stopped the mandate on all Federal Contractors.
The irony of this long comment was, once all the “Fully Vax’d” Soldiers & Airmen came off Christmas break into the New Year of Jan 2022, JBLM, WA had a China Flu outbreak and went to 50% manning for the first 2 months of 2022.
“I’ve tested positive for Covid, but thank God I had the vax. My symptoms are mild and I expect to recover quickly.”
My decision was based on my past experience with flu shots. Twice in my life I had a flu shot and very shortly after came down with the worst flu’s of my life! I also read about all the lab monkeys dying during the small amount of mRNA testing that was done. That was quite enough for me as well as all that crap about poor old bats.
By the way, there is a new movie out by the name of, “the real Anthony Fauci.” The movie is being shown free for the next eighteen days only. It is in four parts making it easy to watch in segments. The movie is fantastic although it’s a bit difficult to listen to as Robert Kennedy suffers from a speech impediment. It’s stunning and truly is a MUST WATCH!!!

I did not take the shot and neither did my family including my 2 children. From the beginning something didn’t’t make sense about it. I am not one who just believes and I sure don’t follow the narrative set forth on TV. I don’t have any social media and I started to look at Dr reports and people who had an opposite view and it made sense to me more then just take the shot. Some of my friends had Covid and then I got it as well as my children. We were fine and I believe we always had a good immune system and that like other viruses, why wouldn’t having it give more protection going forward. Id get my antibodies checked in the beginning and they were strong a year later.
At this point I was vehemently against the shot because the TV narrative was just too overwhelming and obvious this was about something else. Since then we have all had Covid again and had the sniffles which was more than the first time for us. I know so many people who had to get it and some lost their jobs for not getting it. Based on what we are seeing today , I hope they will all be fine. As for those who continue to push the shot, I can only hope the repercussions come for them soon. This was the greatest travesty against humans made of all time.
I always had the strange feeling that it was about Trump and that the cabal saw the tide turning against them and put this plan in motion to stop them. To be continued.
Pence the traitor ran Trump’s pandemic board.
I trust my God given immune system.
Hi All,
It’s been a while since I posted about the conditions here in Aus. I lost my job because I refused the Government insistence that I participate in a medical trial.
I worked for a ‘peak’ Aboriginal organisation in Central Aus – we had about 400 workers (most of them hardcore leftists – CRT, Climate Emergencies, Invasion etc etc) and I was the only employee who said publicly NO and was sacked.
My last email to my colleagues was to highlight who I was taking my advice from (McCullogh, Malone, Ed Dowd, Cole, the Senator & his alternative view – it was an extensive list). I also highlighted the Nuremberg Code, the fact that COVID was more prevalent in our communities AFTER vaccination & the 98% + survival rate. I added that picture – you know, the one from the Hitler Rally where a huge crowd is giving the ‘salute’ and one man was standing with his arms crossed. I circled him in red, and advised them to ..’be this man…’ when did we start having blind faith in Government, the fact that we had concentration camps being built all around the country – the shooting of an unarmed populace at The Shrine of Remembrance in Melbourne was my breaking point.
I refuse & continue to refuse to comply with dictates that have no basis in keeping people safe. I am ashamed that Clinics, Councils and the NT Government were paying our most vulnerable people $500 per jab.
Do I regret my decisions?
I’m still dealing with the financial fallout and the fact that I was isolated by not only my countrymen but family members because I didn’t want to “protect” others. The only way I could make my view understood was the analogy:
If you took your dog to the Vet for his annual Parvo shot, and the Vet contacts you after a month & says, come back for the booster, then another a couple of months later your dog still contracted Parvo & died what would you think?
It was hard, it was heartbreaking – but what I have I got out of it?
God was always part of my life – I grew up with Sunday school & got married in the Church -COVID made me understand that my life & my path is determined by The Father, The Son & The Holy Ghost.
My career path is no longer just about me & mine & the $ – Going back to the workforce, I am now in a truly pathetically paid position, but on the plus side, I get to treat vulnerable people with kindness & respect and give real & practical help EVERYDAY.
I am no longer afraid to voice my opinion or to reach out to support people who appear to be struggling.
I’m a woman truly at peace – flawed, not without sin, but at peace.
To all who have shared their stories and their views in these branches – I say thank you. You have helped me re-find my faith, and to always look beyond the words to find the real story!
I have used rabies vaccination in my analogies. Would you trust a rabies vaccination that had as its best rationale: “Your dog can still get and transmit rabies, but he won’t get as bad a case”?
Don’t go to doctor, so surely not taking jab.
Friends mother died from shot. Her DR put cause as heart issue, all coming around now.
Now his girlfriend that got jab has many health issues.
I didn’t take it because I already have health issues with my heart, fybromyalgia and lupus, and just felt that I may have more complications if I took the vaccine. Also, my husband and I though that we had already had Covid way before it became an epidemic. People all around us were getting sick, with some type of flu that we later thought to be Covid.
We then got it again later. Even though I was wearing a mask and the person who passed it on to me and 2 others was wearing a mask, I got Covid. All three of us did. After that, I swore off wearing the mask (which made it difficult to breath anyway). So we felt that we had immunity already which would be better than taking the shot.
As things stand now, I’m really glad that we decided not to get the shot. Covid itself was already rough enough on me, with the fatigue (which I normally get with fibromyaligia) . I just didn’t need any other problems to add to my collection.
Are we doing a poll here?
Because I wasn’t going to take a Frankenstien Vaccine for a Frankenstien Virus.
I was in New Zealand when Covid hit, and was able to stay for 7 months while it was eradicated through lockdowns there. I returned to the US in Sept 2020 but had a good chunk of time to make Covid research my new hobby. I am a physician so watched the medical literature carefully. I also follow some not so traditional sources for an alternative health perspective.
When I was in medical school on rounds waaaaaay back in the 1900’s, if you were able to work knowledge of a Lancet or New England Journal of Medicine article into everyday conversation, you were all that and a bag of chips, as they say. OK, so around May 2020 the Lancet came out with an article on how hydroxychloroquine was not helpful for Covid prophylaxis or treatment. Many of my med school classmate friends knew I liked “alternate” options, and didn’t hesitate to forward this article to me. Lo and behold, 3-4 weeks later it was quietly retracted. No fan fare as there had been at publication. This was my head’s up that this was a political disease. A medical disease? Maybe. But definitely with a political twist.
So when the vax came along, I had already been working on homeopathic immune boosting protocols–similar to Dr. Zelensky’s. Once back in the US, I worked from home and decided mRNA technology was too experimental and it was being pushed too, too hard for me to trust it. I figured I’d study the data over time, and keep my options open. Apparently my interpretation of the data and my classmates interpretation differed considerably, as I am the only one who did not get vaxx’d, much to their puzzlement. The jury is still out as they are concerned, but I am confident I made the right choice. I missed out on many social events with them for an interval. The veil has been lifted, and I am welcome company now. But I would say they all are still happy with their choice getting vaxx’d. There was no feud and no hard feelings. Just puzzlement.
I sent numerous emails with homeopathic options and discussion of Hydroxycholoroquine and Ivermectin (which I prophylaxed with on a 2021 trip to NZ) focusing on Vitamin D levels, NAC and zinc as well as lesser known options. I have many nonmedical friends that chose to skip the vax in part, I think, thanks to these emails. I ask myself should I have sent more? Been more adamant? I did not feel I had enough trustworthy data to make recommendations to others. Only to share what my choices were.and why.
I have one job I need to go to monthly. They were happy to take a religious exemption to allow me to remain unvaxx’d. Many docs at this site went that route. Admin knew they would lose medical personnel if they did not accept exemptions. My understanding is overall, 10% of docs are unvaxx’d. This story is far from over. I expect all sort of “how did you know”? type queries as more negative vax data comes to life.
Thanks for asking!
If the FDA staff needed an exemption, everyone did. That’s pretty black and white.
Sundance, my spouse and I (both seniors) chose NOT to get the Covid shot(s). 1. We saw the Plandemic for what it was when “two weeks to lessen the curve” ended, 2. We did not trust the experimental mRNA technology with no long term testing on humans once we read about the disastrous animal studies, 3. We followed the courageous people speaking truth (FLCCC, etc) and stocked up on Ivermectin (ordered from a pharmacy in India) and also started the preventive daily protocol of zinc, vit D, Quercitin, 4. We got sick 11-2022 and tested positive, started Ivermectin and got better in 3 days (other than taste and smell which I lost for 8 months), 5. I did not see my elderly mother in Independent Senior Living for two years as Covid tests and the vaccine (when it was available) were required by her facility for in person visits, 6. Most of my immediate family got the shots and boosters and it did create division in our relationships ( as did our refusal to wear face diapers) 7. One adult son of ours got one shot and refused any more, the other son got two shots. Hope this adds to your understanding of why we did not submit. Sadly a lot of our conservative senior friends did.
Out of my side of the family, my youngest brother and his wife were the only ones to take it. My mom and her husband, me, my husband and three daughters, my sister and her husband and my other brother, his wife and daughter all said no way. My husband has nine sisters on his side, and other than one nephew and his family and one niece and her husband, everyone else took the shots and boosters. My brother-in-law ended up having a quadruple bypass just after Thanksgiving, and his wife has been having mysterious medical symptoms that no doctor can figure out. A bunch of others have gotten covid multiple times in spite of being jabbed.
I trust God over pharma and always try to find natural ways to care for sickness, etc. We were pretty sure we all had covid before it was a thing, which would mean we would have had natural immunity. After doing a ton of research, we decided it was best to keep trusting God and keep our immune systems just the way He designed them. We do not regret our decision at all.
What I can only describe as God guiding us, my husband and I decided to decline all vaccines for our family. Our children are all unvaccinated so far, no childhood vaccines. I never set out to be antivax or anything. I just started getting curious about the need for each one and the more I looked into them, the less I wanted my kids to have them. As soon as the pandemic hit, I had a feeling it was going to lead to mass vaccination. Hard no from us.
Once you realize you can cure these diseases and illnesses naturally, you don’t fall for the big pharma scams anymore.
My cousin died of a heart attack this week, fully vaxxed/boosted.
Is this how the vaccine protects people?
I have two nieces that took the Jab. I pray for them. They both held off a long time but took them to keep their jobs.
Their dad tried to talk them out of the Jabs, yet I’m sure their mother went along. So far the father doesn’t want to criticize their mom, yet when he showed mild reservations, she called him “insane.”
My brother-in-law died of a heart attack a few days ago while dining in a Texas Roadhouse restraint. He was “up to date”.
Its hard to see any of these sudden deaths as a coincidence. Prayers to your family.
Oh my. Please accept my condolences for you and your family. I believe I lost my father to the same back in June. His situation was abominable.
When you’re not sure . .
Remember the words of the genius Leo Tolstoy “When in doubt, Abstain.”
And the even greater genius King David of Israel “I’d rather fall into the hands of the Lord than the hands of men.”
Yes, great words! The past few years have led me straight back to God. The only way through these times.
