Refusing to be vaccinated against Covid-19 is a ’sin’ & anti-vaxxers must spend their life repenting

Israel is now on 3rd & 4th wave of “booster” shots. So will it eventually reach a point if a person should have 99 “booster” shots but only has 98, will that be considered “unvaccinated”? I am vaccinated ( for now, I guess with the 1 jab J&J “vaccine”) but where is all of this going? Of course, my linked article from National Propaganda Radio has plenty of “well because” “explanations” .

As of now, the expectation is a booster every ~8 months, at least it is what they tell us at work. May change to every 6 or every 10 or whatever, depending on what ongoing studies show. I don't think they'll count from behind, but you'll need to have had a shot within 8 months to be "in the green".

How many boosters has anyone had for all the vaccinations they had as a child?

A few friends of mine have had boosters for MMR I think... One for sure before she started trying to be pregnant (decided to check titer and was zero). You always need a booster for tetanus if you get a high risk wound... You need boosters for many other vaccines if you are or are heading to a high risk environment, but I don't know them off the top of my head. For some childhood vaccinations there are a lot of people who lose titers over time.

I for instance never had MMR and I had to have titers checked a few times (for employment and for citizenship) and always raise eyebrows with how high they are (I had all three actual diseases in childhood).

I didn't have the MMR shot when I was a baby/child. I know because I got the mumps when I was one years old. The day after or two days after giving birth to Nicholas via c-section, my firstborn, a nurse came in and said I hadn't had the rubella shot and just gave it to me without asking if I wanted it or anything. And at that time, I knew zero about vaccines.

I had mumps and measles as a child. If you've had both vaccination shots given in infancy then there is generally no need for booster shots. Tetanus isn't a virus so it isn't applicable. When there is a need for booster shots, we are usually talking decades after the initial shots, yet for COVID-19 we are looking at mere months after vaccination. Is no one questioning this?

Just FYI I'm linking a couple of videos on clinical studies on Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin.
It is crazy that Ivermectin impacts negatively on COVID-19 in several different ways, yet the Theraputic Goods Administration in Australia has now banned doctors from prescribing it for treating COVID-19

Is that being considered in both Australia and New Zealand? Is it just media or is it actually true reporting?

There is a clear trajectory. Everything from the government and the media, both purchased and owned in effect by a super-wealthy plutocracy, is pushing very hard precisely in the direction of having all submit to a new world order where everyone's words and actions will be visible to them, all transactions permanently registered and fixed, all obeying the slightest whim of those in power, with dissenters severely punished. It means a permanent end to the idea of a free people (at least until such time as the civilization be completely overthrown and a new dark age descend, something these controllers can't see). Whatever you believe about the virus's origin, that is clearly what it is being used for. The lust for power. To not see that means not seeing, not desiring to see it. (Not saying that's you, but certainly some still want to believe that the only real danger is the virus, which surpasses all common sense.)

The idea of evil scientists ruling the world was long a trope in James Bond-type action flicks. Now we can see that it is not so far off the mark, except that the scientists are themselves mere pawns.

Out of all of the concerns we shave discussed in this thread and other conversations, the thought of the church possibly cowtowing to the powers that be is the most concerning to me. I’m thankful that - despite the many areas of corruption we have here in America - we can still meet together in our parishes without government interference, with the exception of the initial lock down period. Even then - we could still meet with restrictions.

[It was horrible to have several months like that, but the goal of our bishop and the parishes underneath him was to get our worship fully back to what it should be, with the understanding that we cannot change the Eucharist or our beliefs. I was very glad to hear the unapologetic declaration that the Eucharist is the Body and Blood of Christ, and therefore, we cannot be harmed by it due to illness or disease.]

I came to Church this morning and found the church packed to the brim - with parking overflowing beyond our back up gravel parking area. We are fully back to what we were before attendance wise - possibly higher attendance level than before COVID. I am so thankful that we are permitted to do this legally and that we don’t have to break any laws to do so. We don’t have to worry about police coming and enforcing restrictions or laws on the Church, since that sacredness of independence of religion from government oversight still, by some miracle, is mostly honored. There are some glaring exceptions….but even the states with vaccine passports (such as New York) have exemptions for churches.

Hearing of our fellow Christians not being able to attend parishes without a vaccine…..it is beyond words. Seeing bishops restrict the Eucharist due to potential contamination of disease is scary to see. Situations like changing practices of the Eucharist due to government guidance, long term requirements of keeping the churches shut down, limiting who can attend church, changing baptism practices - especially in reaction to government and the community - that is what concerns me most.

I am deeply concerned for my niece, nephews and godchildren - and for all in the next generation. Lord have mercy.

agreed. when the bishop of my parish put the responsibility on the local parishes and the people to respond to COVID, and told everyone not to judge those who disagree, my parish has actually grown. thanks be to God we have received 4, made 13 catechumens, blessed a heterodox marriage, and sent a seminarian. we also have 3 preparing to be readers, one to be a subdeacon, and another preparing to be a seminarian.

so, while there is a fear from last year, the stuff that happened has also lit a fire in others to really hold on to the Church and serve her.

Yep. The Church can respond in more than one way - fear from everything around us - or holding onto the Church more than ever.

We received about 10 catechumens since the COVID pandemic started, so we are now working to get some more since so many were received! We also have had many baptisms, and the number of families with children in the parish is growing significantly. We have someone preparing to be tonsured as reader soon as well. The number of people who came to the Akathist with the miracle icon of the Theotokos of Iveron was amazing.

The Church is thriving despite all that is going on around Her in some areas.

Uhhhggg!!!

12 It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised vaccinated, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For even those who receive circumcision vaccination do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised vaccinated that they may glory in your flesh. (‭‭Galatians‬ ‭6‬‬:‭12-13‬ RSV)

Modern first-world Christianity: “Don’t waste your life wantonly! Romans 13! OBEY”

Chad ancient Christianity:
From the Prologue of Ohrid, reflections for the 25th of August-

Our Christian forebears' superhuman courage and readiness to endure all sufferings (and even voluntary death) for Christ evoked fear in their tormentors...The eparch warned the Christians to forego the services in the field the next day, so that they would not be killed...all the Christians set out happily to the field, rejoicing that they would suffer and die for the true Faith. The eparch, marching out of the city with the soldiers, saw a Christian woman with a child in her arms as she hurried past the soldiers toward the field. The eparch said to her: "Haven't you heard that the eparch, with his soldiers, will come and kill everyone that he finds there?" The woman answered: "I heard--and because of that, I am hurrying to the field, so that I can die for Christ with the others." The eparch continued: "And why are you taking this child with you?" The woman replied: "I want my child to become worthy of martyrdom as well as myself."...The emperor was also filled with fear, and revoked his order to massacre the Christians.

Look up “Aviptadil/Zaisami.” It is a therapeutic that has safety and efficacy and is better than ivermectin and hydroxycloroquine and the FDA hasn’t EUA’d it yet. It’s crazy that no one see’s beyond the lies. Seeing therepeutics that are safe and efficacious not being allowed through to be used to help people shows that they want people to die.

Apart from taking Vitamin D, Zinc and a few others, I'm also taking black cumin and honey. My brother has wormwood growing in his garden and is using that. Basically we are doing what we can to give our immune system the resources it needs to fight the virus quickly and develop natural immunity.
Lockdowns and movement restrictions are keeping people indoors and the media is constantly bombarding us with one negative story after another. Both the lack of exposure to sunlight and the increased stress are well known to have a severe impact on the immune system. It is like they want people to be weak so they have to rely on the vaccines.
I know that whatever evil befalls us, Christ is already victorious and we truly have nothing to fear, so I ignore all the terrible stories flooding the media and focus on where and on who I have put my trust. ΙCΧC ΝΙΚΑ

I take extra vitamin D (have doubled it in the last month) and added extra vitamin C a couple of weeks ago. That's in addition to my usual multivitamins, B 100 complex vitamins, etc. Zinc is in my multivitamin, along with other important fruits and veggies, minerals, extracts, etc. I was walking regularly before moving down to the Springs and starting my job, but at least if I'm "running" (taking orders to people's cars) on my 2-4 hour shifts, I'm getting the sun exposure then.

Whenever I start getting a sore throat, I drink throat coat tea with lemon and echinacea, with some honey. It usually takes away the sore throat within hours or is gone by the next day. I've had a sore throat twice in the past few weeks, but it may be allergies, since we're now in allergy season anyway.

John, what you said about having to stay in your house/the whole lockdown thing (which is stupid for a few cases and not massive amounts of deaths, imo, and quarantines are supposed to be for the sick, not the healthy) is actually very unhealthy for people: isolation, fear, no sunlight, stress. Yes, those all lower your immune system, in which you are more susceptible in getting sick with whatever illness. And isolating people from each other and scaring them to the point of immobility and panic is of the enemy, not God.

Got 75 days to get the jab. Guess I’m getting fired then. Oh well, going where God takes us is all we can do. Find others like ourselves and help each other meet our basic needs. That’s what it’s all about. It’ll be hard at first, but Christ never said it’d be easy. Mentally prepare.

Ooh ‘Rah!
