So nothing happened to those who didn't take the Covid vaccine? 🤔🤔

I’m one of them and I’m safer than those who took it. 😂

Did you take the vaccine?

I didn't take it and a lot happened to me. I was vilified by family, friends, and co-workers, and told to prepare for a dark winter of death from my president. I wasn't allowed to eat in any restaurant in the city where I was born and raised.

Yeah, I had the same thing. Taiwan was very strict. When they ID me at the hospital, alarms would always go off. I stayed away as much as I could because of that.

Hardcore this. We forewarned that such a thing was coming, people believed us, then turned on us, then a few took the shot and tried to say we were crazy although we were "ahead of the curve".

Hell no. And I used to be someone who had a yearly recurring reminder in my calendar, for my flu shot. Never again that shot either. Any trust I once had in medical systems is completely, utterly gone.

It was not easy. I used to live in one of those hellholes that banned the unjabbed from cafes, restaurants, gyms, etc. Starbucks kicked me out for being unjabbed, the first day of the mandate. I will never again spend a penny at any Starbucks in my entire life.

I carry a lot of resentment from that time period. And the knowledge that friends and family went so crazy with their support of these measures - well, that's unsettling to say the least.

But I did find some people even in my old location who were against it. Thank goodness for that.

It's really hard to let go of the anger, honestly it's kind of poisoning my life.

You can't let go completely because you shouldn't forget what they did and you also need to be prepared for something similar to happen again.

But then it becomes very difficult to interact with people in good faith. In the back of your mind is always the question: are you a fucking statist retard that would kill me if they told you to?

I understand completely. I don't have any real answers. But the life poisoning thing sounds bad.

Here's what worked for me:

I moved to a much less insane area
I spend time with people and call some of them friends, who were NOT necessarily completely based in the covid era. Who may have gotten vaxxed. I judge them somewhat, in my head. But I realize that people who can withstand that kind of social pressure are few and far between. I appreciate my independent-minded friends more than ever. I did lose some previously good friends who were completely into the propaganda. Just don't want to talk to them anymore.
Even in the covid era, I worked hard to get out there and join the protesters, the people holding rallies (tiny, maybe) about unmasking kids. I'm very glad for that.

I didnt take it. I was vilified by everyone, yet I was one of the last to contract covid. When I finally got it, everyone thought I would die, but I didnt. Just had the worst fever and headache.

Man, the first time I got it, I've had the worst tension in my lower-back since, well, ever; from then on, it was my go-to indicator that told me I had cought Covid again. 😆

I have only ever got it once. I did lose my sense of taste for a little while during the fever, but it came back.

Yep, weirdest coffee I've ever had, too.

But I did enjoy playing around with not having full taste.

I didn't. I tested positive for COVID and felt a bit sick but no worse then normal flu. The best thing was that I lost my sense of smell for a month or two and it was awesome since I took turns changing kid diapers. 😃

Yes, I'm jabed and my life has changed drastically

It's same here. I think it's a very sad reality that we need to spend rest of the life be a part of some bio terrorism experiment!

31 sats \ 2 replies \ @Lumor 5 Jun

Didn't participate in that experiment. Had an unpleasant flu in spring of '21 but just stayed mostly in bed.

Pretty well vaccinated before that for a non-US person.

Started realizing the extent of institutional rot. Might become an anti-vaxxer for real someday.

Might become an anti-vaxxer for real someday.

A really good reason to aggressively prosecute the medical professionals who lied about COVID vaccines is to head off anti-vax sentiment in the future. Not all vaccines are safe. If you want to convince people that the commonly used ones are, you have to convince people that lying otherwise will be aggressively prosecuted.

Yes, there has to be consequences.

Look at what they do, not what they claim to do: The CDC as it is now is there to limit the spread of viruses through maximizing use of any vaccine big pharma claims to be safe. There needs to be another mechanism ensuring vaccine safety.

Most other countries are downstream of US healthcare policies, would be nice to see more verification going on.

Seems like the current plan is to age-out the guilty before admitting criminality.

Nah and I was told I’d lose my healthcare job if I didn’t take it. A number of us refused, called their bluff and the government backtracked at 11th hour.

Basically there were a number of groups in the UK that were gearing up to sue the government and NHS if they sacked us. 😄

The world needs more people with your bravery.

I didn't get vaccinated. But I had a lot less to lose than you.

They told me the same thing as an English teacher in Taiwan. They kept scheduling me, trying to pressure me into taking the shot.

It’s actually great that so many of us held the line so to speak.

It was really difficult for me. I had to buy the tests every week, and they were super expensive. The school wouldnt even provide them. I argued about it, but they said they would provide the vaccine. I was opting to go the difficult route, they said.

30 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter 6 Jun

I didn't and I didn't let anyone take it in my family as well. Even my parents who are in their 60s have discarded it.

I agree 💯 that those who didn't take it are safer than those who took it....

Why are you safer without the vaccine..?

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @Tef OP 6 Jun

I had no health issues at all, while some of my friends who took the vaccine had several problems. Maybe this is just a coincidence, but I don't believe in coincidences. 😂

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @southside263 6 Jun

I’ve had no issues with vaccines or boosters. I don’t know anyone with issues either. Most people I know are vaccinated/boosted.👍🏽

Did you worry about vaccines before 2020..?

What was your worst experience from not taking the vaccine?

Fortunately, I had no bad experiences at all!

Nope, it stunk for me from the very beginning so didn't volunteered for the experiment...didn't even got a flu. Use your "inner voice" when in doubt, it rarely fails... It reminds me of BTC, the shrinking majority still thinks it's a fad, but stay strong and you will be the one saying "I told you so", that's 2:0 in my book :-) Keep'em coming...! :-)

I had to spend a few weeks in a quarantine, this was after about ten months trapped in a third country, which was a great holiday. I literally did little to 'be healthy' apart from exercising my right to not let people coerce me into being a guinea pig. I have not been sick (ill, cold, flu, anything) in about five years.
