    Oh, for cryin' out loud. Can someone tell me what's all the fuss about not getting a shot? Through the ages, we got shots for everything from tetanus to polio, why all the fuss now? IDK, I got the ol' "Johnny one shot", it was no big deal. While I do think this will go down in history as the biggest scam ever, if it is real, get the freakin' shot. That way, you can say, "it wasn't me, I had the decency and regard for others lives to get the dang shot". This only shows how disconnected we are becoming from our fellow man.

    That is an easy question to answer. It's a flu shot. No one is forced to take the annual flu shot. But people are being pushed to get this flu shot. Even being forced to take it. That's wrong. It should be a choice.

    This from someone who chose to get it. So don't try to make me an anti-vaxer.

    A one day shutdown? On a Sunday when most trucks are parked anyway? The general public will see all the parked trucks and they'll think it's part of the shutdown. Clever marketing.
    Let's make the shutdown next Monday or Tuesday or even let it run for a whole week. Then, maybe, it might do some good beyond irritating people who don't really care anyway.

    It’s not tested throughly and doesn’t work very well.

    I know a couple people who have got the shot, and can’t take the heat without profusely sweating,and almost passing out cause they can’t catch breath.
    They didn’t have this problem before the shot.

    1. The shot is a lie. If you get the shot you can still catch China Flu. You can still die of China Flu after you get the shot. You can still infect others with the China Flu AFTER you've been vaccinated. Most organizations don't break their statistics down by vaccination status. The Health District of Southern Nevada does. 52% of their China Flu fatalities in the last month were vaccinated.

    2. The side effects. More adverse reactions have been reported from the China Flu shots than all other vaccines combined going back 20 years. Healthy people without co-morbidities (obese, diabetic, over 70, etc.) are dying from complications brought on by the vaccines!

    Moderna, one of the makers of China Flu vaccines, was making vaccines BEFORE the China Flu. They developed 9 vaccines - none were approved by the FDA. Several mRNA vaccines were developed before the China Flu. None made it to human trials because in animal trials ALL THE ANIMALS DIED! We're supposed to believe that magically, after the FDA's approval standards were relaxed and fast tracked for the China Flu, Moderna got their act together and mRNA vaccines are fine? Really?

    3. The propaganda. Talking about the vaccine side effects will get you banned on most social media, even if you just mention studies and statistics from the NIH, CDC or other reputable sources. Every day we're subjected to fake, "news" stories from veterinarians and other doubtful sources telling us how their hospitals are FULL of China Flu patients. They're all unvaccinated folks begging for the shot but all the, "medical professionals" can do is tell them, "No, it's too late" then hold their hand and watch them DIE!

    You are either vaccinated or unvaccinated. Period. Unvaccinated folks are being vilified and blamed for the never ending China Flu mandates. There's no discussion of or provision for natural immunity (people who have recovered from the China Flu and are now immune). That's tens of millions of Americans who don't need the vaccine but are being pressured to take it anyway. Why? Meanwhile, many countries have ZERO vaccines available for their people.

    4. The priorities. I'm the problem because I refuse to be a lab rat for a failed experimental vaccine? Not the 200,000 people who cross the southern border illegally every month (20% of whom test postive for China Flu). Are they quarantined? Vaccinated? No, they're flown or driven to communities all over the US at taxpayer expense. Even legal travelers are free to come to the US from countries with vaccination rates well below 10%.

    5. The odds. In the general population your odds of surviving China Flu are over 99% if you're under 70. That includes the obese (42% of the population), diabetics (11% of the population) and folks with other co-morbidities. If you're under 70 and don't have a co-morbidity your odds of dying are insignificant. In 2020, 42 Americans were killed by packs of dogs. I'm not wearing a suit of armor to protect myself from that either.

    Previous vaccines for other viruses didn't have to have special protection from the government keeping people from suing the drug companies that developed them...these were rushed thru so fast that they weren't fully tested for possible long term medical conditions. They're now finding out some of the early guinea pigs that got the shot are developing inflammation of the heart, kidney problems, blood clots (that can be fatal), and Japan just ceased use of the Moderna vaccine because they found contamination in a bunch of lot numbers, and have had deaths related to it. For a 1/2 of 1% of a chance of dying from this stuff...I'll take my chances. 2 of my grandsons had it, and beat it. My daughter (who was taking care of them) had it, beat it. My son-in-law (who was around them before being tested) had it, beat it. My neice had it, and is beating it. Her adult son had it, and was sent home to quarantine himself to fight it at home and is beating it.

    And that's all the more attention you've given it isn't it. How many boosters will you get before you start to question it, they're already talking every 5 months, down from every 8 3 days ago.
