my grandma is 91 and immunocompromised my nieces are too young to be vaccinated my girlfriend is a teacher with a classroom full of sick kids who's parents refuse to have them vaccinated
it's not a choice that someone just makes for their own child it's a choice that affects everyone around that child, and society as a whole
so who is to make that choice for my grandma, my nieces, my girlfriend?
Well?
Make an off hand remark, and people go running to Kat and Sea
Make a valid point?
... crickets...
It's pretty clear what people's motivations are around here.
And it certainly isn't to "Discuss, disagree and debate politely"

And when have you ever done any of those things politely? I’m sorry when people get warned about you in pMs then you have a reputation.

Somebody in England with devastatingly crippling health anxiety that has lost one child at some point, I believe with a health related problem. Somebody who is vaxxed himself and seems to want far more info as it relates to his youngest child. As I recall he is worried about heart complications in children.
Your immunocompromised grandma flying to england any time soon? you? anyone around her? No? then dont worry about someones opinion 6000 miles from you.

You made an impolite rude comment...don't try to play victim.
I have an appointment to get my booster tomorrow. I didn't have any severe side effects with the first two - so I hope this one will be the same.
staying with the same vax or mixing?
Same one - Moderna.

End of page 105 this thread. Wow! Fucking lovely! Shame your fellow
PJ fan and say nasty things cause, yeah man, that always gets people to
change their mind, right? Hey, while you're at it, yell at the person!
Yelling at someone is an even better what to get them to stop and say,
"Oh, gosh yeah, you are so right. Thank you."

OK, now the serious response. Please, just be kind to each other. There is so much pain and shit in this world already. Or take your anger out on me. I don't care. I have broad shoulders.

Haven’t been in this thread in a long time so forgive me if this has been discussed. Thoughts on the booster shot? Yeah or nay?
I don't think there will be an option for much longer, at least not if you want to keep your "fully vaxxed" status. I was just in the same boat. "Do I need it?" "Do I get it?" And then I got hit with the real deal, so the decision was made for me. Unfortunately when (not if) it becomes required for "fully vaxxed" status, my fresh natural immunity will mean nothing to our government though, which I've always felt was flawed thinking.
your fresh natural immunity will help you for about six months....keep that in mind
a shot would have been much more pleasant

Yes. Not getting Covid after being vaccinated would have been the preferred option. Didn't work that way for me unfortunately.
I do realize the natural immunity lasts in the 6 month range, which is the same as the vaccines. So in my eyes, I should not be required to get a booster for 6 months to retain my fully vaxxed status.

That statistic seems weird a few posts up. It ranks how many people got reinfected vs the # of people that got covid overall. It seems like a fairly small ratio, like only a small percentage of people who got covid, got it a 2nd time. 35,000 vs 2.7 million seems kind of low?
I guess the other thing with Omicron will be how severe it is. Is it more or less severe than the current strains. It could be more contagious, but maybe we'll luck out and it'll be less lethal?
