Video Covid: Don’t Let Them Off The Hook (I'm STILL pissed!)

You could be immune. If not and you get chicken pox as an adult it can go badly. It can kill you.

You didnt get the vaccination when you were a child? Maybe when you went to Venezuela? None of your kids got chicken pox? The vax is usually administered when a child is a year or so old.

When I was a kid, there was no such thing as a chickenpox vaccine. That vaccine came out in 1995. I have not taken it. There are some potential problems with it... INCLUDING the possibility of getting shingles later... from the chickenpox vaccine. So I'm going to pass.
 
I’ve had no ill effects - so far anyway. Part of it for me was I felt responsible for our people so I took one for the team just in case nobody chose to get the shot. Rather than lose clients.

I refused to compromise on the masks though. This rigamarole was a real pain in the ass for almost 2 years. We powered thru it.

Chicken pox is highly contagious. I don’t know if that’s true with shingles.

Yes it is. If you've had chicken pox, you can catch shingles from someone with shingles. If you haven't, you can catch chicken pox from someone with shingles. However, once you've had chicken pox, you can't catch chicken pox again. Life is weird.
 
I had chicken pox as a kid, and had shingles on my lower back a few years ago.
Shingles is some serious stuff. The sore's are on the surface, but the pain is way deeper - like a bunch of 6" nails are stabbing in.
 
My brother in law had shingles on his face when he was in Spain with Air Force in. His doc on base misdiagnosed it and sent him home. It almost cost him some sight and hearing! Thankfully, he went back and saw a different doctor in time to get it treated properly. It can be pretty serious.

Back onto the Vax. When the coof was the hottest topic in the land, I was an Assistant Manager at Best Buy. My Store Manager was pretty conservative and didn't want to take the vax, but he was afraid Best Buy would mandate it, so he got the shot. I refused and told him they would have to fire me if it came to that. Later, after things calmed down and the mandate never happened, he told me he really regretted it. He felt that he personally failed his own principles, not to mention the anxiety he now carries that he may have damaged his health.

So many people have claimed, "I didn't have a choice," because they'd lose their jobs. I disagree and of course, I'm right. They absolutely had a choice. The choice was between:

  1. Standing on your principles and on the ACTUAL science and placing a high value on your current and future health....

  2. Or a fucking JOB.
It's STILL a choice. Claiming you "had no choice," is a cop-out and positioning yourself as a helpless VICTIM instead of TAKING CHARGE of your own life.

My health and life is FAR more valuable than any job. I can get another job, but I can't get another life.

Enquiring minds want to know - when did you start lusting after Greta and EV's?

Greta? I had to wait for to turn 18. :) 2001.

EVs... way back to the original Tesla Roadster. 2008. I drove one that a friend bought. I couldn't believe the acceleration. It was like riding a crotch rocket. 0-60 in 3.5 seconds. No shifting, linear acceleration that pinned you to the seat. No sound.
 
There's a rumor floating around for years that half the people who got the jab got a placebo.

Both the injections I received were Moderna, not Pfizer. It seems like a lot of the side effects - at least most of them - spring from people who got the Pfizer version. Could be just rumor though. There's a lot of that.
 
Not sure which version my dad got, but he has a raspy voice and a cough that hasn't gone away in years. His doctors flat out told him that they were both side effects of the vax. Despite that, and to my extreme frustration, he continues to get boosters. Every time he gets one, he's sick as a dog for about a week. I love the man, but I really thought he had more sense than that.

My dad (also a very smart guy) got all the jabs and said, "I don't know why I keep getting covid (at least 4 times now)."

I know why.

I think it's a generational thing. My Dad's generation trusts their doctors implicitly. I, on the other hand, don't trust a damn one of them. I actually had one in Texas who I really did trust. Once he told me, "never forget that the guy who graduated last in his class at medical school is still a doctor!"
 
I just got shot 1 and 2. I felt fatigued but had no ill effects the day of the shot or the next. Never got COVID. No idea if that was luck, natural immunity, or the shots.

I had no concerns about the vaccine harming me. That was not because I trusted Big Pharma or the government. Quite the opposite, actually. I’m not a fan of either.

I had recently with one other armed personnel eliminated five ragheads with full auto AKs and spent a year in PT learning how to walk without a limp. Honestly, I didn’t give a fuck what was in the vaccine. It could have been horse piss for all I cared. My partner and I had a new business to run so I did what I felt was necessary to keep that going.

Under the same circumstances would I take that risk again? Probably.
