#1 ...My mom - a seriously Old School RN who did it for 42 years - always reminded me that a vaccine contains, if even in unbelievably tiny amounts, things that are dangerous to people.

We tolerate the risks because the other risks caused by the disease are so overwhelmingly dangerous that in the long run, it's worth it. And in the vast amount of diseases, that's true. The problem we face now - and we can kinda go back to the DOD anthrax disaster in the 90s for this - is that we've got people now who believe that vaccines are a divine directive and are going to make us take iffy ones whether they work or not. COVID was one; and I got a bad feeling there's going to be more.

#2 ^ Yep. Got my second Shingrix (Chicken Pox Vax) shot yesterday. Arm's sore, but I've known several people that got Shingles and they were miserable. Long enough track record I trusted it.

#4 Vaccines are intended to provoke an immune system response, to build up resistance.
Think about that: provoke an immune system response.

#6 Frank G I've had shingles twice. After the first time in 1983 I was told I would never get it again. 3 months after the covid "vaccine" I got it again. 4 doctors told me and a Japanese study agreed that the covid shot caused my shingles. That was 2 years ago and I still have pain.

#8 I'm so old that I don't get shingles. I've got the shakes instead. Way worse than the shingles.
