My husband still thinks everything is because of Covid

Nonsense. How could you possibly know that it was much worse the first time because you hadn't had the vaccine at that point?

I've also had covid 3 times, the first time was much much worse than the second and third. And I haven't had a single vaccine. It was down to my body having the antibodies ready to fight the infection again.

This is awful but also typical. Conspiracy theorists of one theory start subscribing to lots of other unsubstantiated theories.

There is a typical believer and it is to do with mental health/lack of control/narcissism. A need to believe they know more/better than the next person. It helps make up for other anger or resentment. Conspiracy theorists don’t tend to be happy and successful types.

No one has contacted Covid from the vaccine.

The vaccine doesn’t stop you catching it, it stops it being so bad. I’ve had Covid 3 times. Once before I was vaccinated and twice afterwards. The one when I was unvaccinated was so much worse.

No. The majority weren’t ‘flat earthers’. Most people knew the earth was round. This idea that people thought you would fall off the edge if you sailed to far is nonsense.

OP, I suggest you tell him this is a clear case of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

I used the caps lock on two words for emphasis, and now your drivel is boring me so I’m not even going to bother reading the rest of your comment as we are going round in circles, as always with conspiracy theorists.

It’s a losing battle, you can’t argue with stupid people who can’t be convinced by anything that challenges their deeply entrenched beliefs. Good night.

This thread is a 'great' example of how people can no longer disagree on matters of fact or opinion without resorting to hurling personal criticisms.

It is a shame, and unhelpful, that so much discourse results in insulting eachother these days.

I don’t think anyone is angry except perhaps you? Nor proven to have been wrong except perhaps you?

The lockdowns worked, the vaccines work…we’ve been able to largely return to normal because of these measures.

My ex was (& still is) like this, he is very ‘blame’ natured. He’s obsessed with it. We split 2 years ago & he still sends me messages & videos to ‘show’ me everything is related to the vaccine.

I honestly think if you’re highly strung & like to apportion blame generally in life, you might go this way.

looking back before I ended it, the videos on full blast, the ‘you have to watch ex pharma scientist professor’ you need to open your eyes etc it just absolutely ground me down. Then he moved onto new world order, MSM poisoning us, Andrew rats/Russell brand… it was relentless. But confirmation that I’m better off.

My Dad had a brain aneurysm, which ruptured two days after his first vaccine, now I could blame that , or the fact that he was old, had high bp and high family incidence of this indicating a inherited propensity for a rupture.(congenital malformation of a blood vessel in the brain)
Being rational we have dismissed the vaccine as a cause of death. Many would add two and two and imake ten

Hahaha. Again, irony! So you know where to get FACTS do you!? Since when has a conspiracy theorist ever provided convincing evidence? They NEVER do. Yet, repeated studies, not just one, back up what I was saving.

I’ve never ever read a convincing piece of evidence from a conspiracy theorist, and in fact getting any evidence AT ALL is vanishingly rare, 99.9% of the time if we ask for evidence we get, ‘’Do your own research!’’

The burden of proof lies with the people who make the claims. You couldn’t critically evaluate ‘’evidence’’ if your life depended on it 😂 Your beliefs are proof of that.

I thought you were saying you didn’t agree with the lockdowns, but apparently you do so we seem to be on the same page here. I willingly locked down each time and would do so again.

So annoying. I have a friend who insists on blaming the death of 2 people he knew on the fact that they'd had the covid vaccine.

Different opinions half of my friends didn't get vaccine others did. We still lost a family member from covid and no response there health problems and she had had all the vaccines also

Yes, sadly.

I read the article, was diagnosed last year and wanted to keep it private but apparently his ‘hand was forced’. If that’s accurate it’s a terrible thing to do to someone.

I was thinking of writing a similar post OP. My dh is currently on about disconnecting us from the Internet and only using cash to pay for things from now on. No thought for the fact my business is completely run online 🙄

Solidarity 🤘🏼

I would. If we were in a position again where there was a new, unknown, seemingly highly contagious and deadly virus whose transmission mode was unknown - I would lockdown again whilst scientists around the world worked on some answers and to limit the number of people needing urgent healthcare.

It was a sensible thing to do and would be again.
