Anyone not having vaccine , why aren't you?

[LazyDaisy10]

Is anyone not having the vaccine and what are your reasons? Im in my 30s I'm not having the vaccine because I'm worried about the long term effects that might not come to light for a few years. Why are you not having it?
If you think the vaccine is amazing and anyone not having it is selfish you probably don't need to comment.

@katylees
Agreed, I've had 2 letters and 2 calls " encouraging " me to have it and have no wish to.. it's quite sinister now and goes beyond a push constituting bullying

Do you regard your reminders for smear tests or check ups from the dentists as bullying and sinister too? How bizarre

it could accelerate the development of cancers

what absolute bullshit

How bizarre to compare a smear test which has no risk with no side effects which is designed to protect my personal health to a vaccine for a disease that poses next to no risk to me that can potentially do me serious harm

We’d be in serious trouble if everyone thought like you OP. Lucky for you that not everyone does

So the 2 chinese doctors didn’t just ‘disappear’ after revealing the origins of Covid. Happens all the time in those kind of countries.

Andrew Wakefield struck off the nhs for daring to express his views that MMR can cause autistic behaviours?

Most people do not trust governments at all! There’s a reason for that.

I’m not currently having it because I’m pregnant. I’ll have it later in the pregnancy, though.

Oh god. The nonsense spouters are out in abundance now

Andrew Wakefield struck off the nhs for daring to express his views that MMR can cause autistic behaviours?

Ta-da! No, he got struck off for being a money-grubbing, lying, evil little scrote of a man.

@katylees - I am making no comparison between the two. I am suggesting it is a worthwhile watch to inform the vaccine debate.

He deserved to be struck off! Complete and utter bullshit

It doesn't matter if the risk of serious complications from the vaccine is only 1 million to 1.. what do you say to the family of a young person that died of a blood clot because they were bullied into taking something they didnt want.. that they should be sacrificed for the greater cause? It's the decision of every person to weigh the choice up for themselves instead of " well her choice to take the vaccine was because she was bullied into it, a political decision".

What kind of disgusting society is that where a tiny number of people have to sacrifice their lives for government policy who would have survived covid so a few cowards can sit in a cinema feeling more relaxed who are already vaccinated? The most fundamental right of any human is what they do with their own bodies and you're going down a very dangerous road implying otherwise- quite sinister to me

shitstirrer

You are welcome to prove me wrong. Let me know how your doing in a few years time please. You cannot possibly say with any certainty that we know this 5/6 months after this vaccine was rolled out in the uk!

However do you really expect the government to admit it has caused cancers in people or similar? They will never admit any wrongdoing.

Taking experimental vaccines for a continuously mutating novel virus with unknown efficacy statistics and outcomes with the need of further booster doses further down the line just doesn’t sit right with me, That’s without adding the confusion around how long to wait between doses, which brand is best to go with and if it has any effect with variants.

We know very little about Covid and it’s long term implications. We also know very little how the virus May mutate amongst vaccinated individuals.

I’m under 40 with no pre existing need to have it. No plans for international travel and I follow the social distancing guidelines and mask rules. Have no interaction with elderly frail people, I don’t use public transport and have no children.

I completely understand why people are eager to have the vaccine, I can see how the promise of freedom could cause people to turn a blind eye to some of the potential risks especially if you are over 60 but I’ll wait for now.

If there’s a total cure tomorrow however, sign me up.

Okay @katylees - your personal risk assessment means you think it's not worth you having the vaccine. It's not just about you though it is. I don't why I'm bothering though tbh. You're intransigent, you'll have an answer for everything culled from the information out there that suits your purpose. You crack on.

Informing you of your right to take the vaccine and its benefits aren't bullying, no matter how hard you try. Bloody childish attitude.

I feel the same OP, and not even listening to the bullies.
There's no diffeence between those opting out because of illness or belief.
The results are the same.

I'm having it despite privately worrying about both the short and long term issues it could cause. I can only hope its the right choice. My family are passionate about it, I will literally never hear the end of it if I don't, and I would also feel like a right twat if I caught Covid-19 after refusing it!

A vaccine anyone takes is about them, people don't inject themselves for " society" or " government policy". Why should anyone risk their life for the greater good- this isn't a community health system. You " crack on" and take the vaccine if you're terrified of covid, my priority is myself and family not people terrified of a virus that has an average age of death above life expectancy. Flu killed over 40,000 in 2014 yet I would wager you didn't have the flu jab - these same virtuous people are nowhere to be found when asked to donate blood/ bone marrow etc but pretend to be concerned about society when their main reasons are selfish ones terrified over a virus painted as the black death.

If the government really cared about your health genuinely, then i think sunbeds should be banned, and smoking, junk food outlets like mcdonald’s and kfc should not be made so cheap and accessible that that becomes people’s main diet. In some areas they are all along the high streets not just 1.
But the government instead tell us to use all these in moderation but not ban them outright.
Why can’t we therefore take our own caution with covid?

should read " communist health system " *

OP, if lots of people don't have the vaccine, we'll could be living like this for years, unless we give in with increased loss of life. If you know you're able to totally enjoy your life like this for the next few years and can look the doctor in the eye when you eventually get covid, then that's your decision. I can't either way, happily had mine and felt great afterwards.

Insulting people who decide not to take the vaccine is bullying and emotional blackmail- 4 letters telling me to take it goes beyond " informing me "

Anyone who uses Andrew Wakefield as an example of why not to get vaccinated shows that their views aren’t worth listening too IMO!

I am sure when travel is properly up and running again and other countries are insisting on vaccination then many of the hesitant will soon change their mind!

My gp advised me not to.

Well you are selfish as you'll be relying on herd immunity. If the truth upsets you maybe stop your read-write access to the internet?
