The worry is that people who refuse the vaccine will become the breeding ground for vaccine-resistant strains.
? If a vaccine-resistant mutation emerges then the vaccinated, just as the non-vaccinated, become the "breeding ground" for the mutant virus.

If I choose to respond without fear, that should not be held against me.
Again, we see the effects of propaganda targeting people who are terrified of strangers viewing them as being afraid of something. I'm glad I'm not nearly so insecure that I'd avoid taking basic safety precautions out of an irrational fear that someone might imagine that means I'm afraid.

Sounds to me as if you're trusting in science, my friend.

As a Christian, that seems very strange to me.
Says the post trusting that the science behind a world-wide collection of networked computers will work to get their message across.

It's a no win situation that we are in.

If you don't get the vaccine, then catch the virus and pass it on, then you have disregarded the welfare of your own countrymen.

If you get the vaccine and it kills you, then you made a mistake in taking the vaccine.
To be fair, the overwhelmingly most likely outcome - you get the vaccine, are protected from covid, and don't end up infecting a bunch of other people - is pretty big win.

If your vaccination WORKS, you should be SAFE from those of us who refuse to get it. Why are you so worried? It appears you don't really trust your vaccine?
No! Why do we need to keep explaining this?!

First, the vaccine is not 100% effective.

Second, the more reckless and irresponsible people refuse the vaccine, the more likelihood that vaccine-evading variants will emerge that will threaten all of us.

Do I need to explain the concept of linear time to you?

Why is it that your trust is in man and not the Lord?
This is the kind of logic that flies planes into buildings.

And here we have yet another poster who doesn't understand the concept of "95% efficacy"

Hopefully our teachers will be using vaccine efficacy problems in their math classes so we don't have another generation this ignorant. Sadly, our teachers aren't 100% efficient either.

The reason that those left who refuse to be vaccinated is because 'the 'left' wants me to' belief.
We are seeing this display in real life. The propaganda from overseas, then ran through Fox News, is so strong that it has convinced this receptive audience that if they die, then they will just take the 'left' with them.

Then I'm happy to inform you that those don't exist.
And I am happy to inform you that you are wrong. Have you ever heard of mRNA vaccines? Do you have any idea what you put in your body?

If you get COVID-19, your chances of being hospitalized for a very long time or dying are significant.

I have been vaccinated against: measles, mumps, rubella, polio, shingles, the many varieties of the flu, and probably others I can't remember. Do you know why? Because I love being alive and well and I'm not stupid!
Yet there is only one vaccine you listed that is not FDA approved. Can you guess which one?

I take mercury, eye of newt and the ocassional handful of gravel. It obviously works because I haven't got it either.
Well there are always side effects to worry about too, e.g. posts like this.

Still, there's a degree of wisdom here - my grandmother was fond of joking that kids should eat a spoonful of dirt at least once a week, to help build up their immune systems. Of course, she never did that, but she also made her point.

And it's a point worth mentioning because good bacteria is a good thing and we're finding that the more and more we strive to keep ALL germs and bacteria at bay, via over-sanitizing ourselves, we can actually promote the rise of drug-resistant organisms and weaken the truly beneficial ones.

Personally, I wouldn't necessarily recommend taking Mercury and might even advise reading up on it in some of the more popular medical journals, but if you're taking gravel, you might consider grinding it up first - lest you throw your dentist into a tizzy; because just because you haven't gotten a cavity doesn't mean you might not break a tooth.

I hope that you're referring to the post that recommended zinc, NAC and Elderberry as a covid preventative.

Honestly, I've no idea how such a simple reference could generate that much confusion. :scratch:

More than you, obviously. mRNA doesn't change DNA.

The eye of newt etc was in jest. The zinc wasn't. Only one of those posts was dangerous.

I'm not.
I'm posting on a website for Christians that, for reasons known only to the site owners, allows atheists and people from other religions to pose questions and comments to them for what they believe and why.

Even so, I wish you well and may God bless you with His goodness, sir.
