To be fair I saw a post from a Facebook friend doing exactly this. Went to the the farm store and was shooting it in her coffee. Fucking no thanks.
I know some people are trying that, but you don't hear of authorities recommending the animal stuff. Many recommend the actual clinical human drug, though. But some states are prohibited from prescribing it for some reason. Wait, of course I know the reason.

Had a conversation this morning with a nurse that will be out of a job in 15 days due to mandated vaccine that he is refusing to get.

I became curious as to what some examples of protests are when it comes to people in the medical field.

So I googled it. “Why are nurses refusing the vaccine?”

Go ahead and search that.

Firing nurses? Um, won't hospitals need all the help they can get if they're overrun with Covid patients?

Do not try to apply logic to this nonsense.

They’ll probably give up on the mandate if the planned walkouts keep happening.

It makes me wonder, which is why I googled it, why are these medical professionals refusing this vaccine if they’re around it all day every day?

Weird, isn't it? Hell, only about half of the actual CDC employees have taken it. Kinda makes me wonder.

I wonder if flu vaccinations numbers were waning, so instead of watching their revenue stream slowly evaporate, they want to introduce something that can replace that steady income.

I don’t if that’s true, it’s just a thought that crossed my mind.

Big Pharma is elbow deep in the politicians' pockets, so most likely.

I talked to another close woman friend about 10 minutes ago that came by for lunch.

I guess the mandate, largely, says if you don’t take the vaccine, you have to have two negative tests per week.

She said that is temporary, though. She’s already told her bosses to let her know when she has to start looking for another job. She refuses the vaccine.

Something is not right. These are the people that should be first in line to get it.

Has the FDA ever approved anything else two years before the clinical trials are finished?

I searched it and saw pretty typical answers... We don't know the longer term effects, I've already had the virus, etc.

Did your friends say why they didn't want it?

Does anyone know what long term side effects may exist?

I’ll wait 5 years and wait to see how many people are bummed out because they can’t sue the makers of the vaccine when they start having adverse health issues from it.

Or maybe everything is fine and it’s proven totally safe. I’ll wait and see, though.

My government and big pharma are and always have been in bed together, neither one has earned my trust.

I asked if she and other nurses talk about their reluctance toward getting the vaccine, she said yes. At least two thirds of the nurses at her hospital are against it.

I couldn’t get a reason out of her, and I didn’t want to pry.

It’s probably because they’ve been working around it for a year and a half and haven’t needed a vaccine to stay alive. The weirdness of pushing a vaccine on people is probably a huge red flag.

Her husband asked me the other day if I was going to get it or have already taken it.

He has a buddy who’s mom went into the hospital a few weeks ago for back surgery, the supposedly demanded she get the vaccine before the procedure or go to another hospital to get the procedure.

Long story short she went on for the surgery, got the vaccine, went home, now she’s in hospice. She was in good health before the back surgery. The only thing they can point to is an adverse reaction to the vaccine.

It’s stories like those, you just don’t know what to believe, but they’re out there.

I assume it’s the reason his nurse wife doesn’t want the vaccine. Who knows how many people she’s seen get the vaccine and have a bad reaction?

Sad stuff. Very sad.

I know of two people who have had bad reactions. My buddy's mom is 70 or so and has been in bad health for a long time, but she gets by. She had her lips and mouth swell up so badly she couldn't eat for a week, and he says she hasn't been the same mentally since.

Other story, a 55 or so year old woman in very good health, plays tennis constantly, a week after her second shot she started having heart problems and now can't play for like 6 weeks at least. No heart problems prior.

I know these are anecdotal, but that's two out of not that huge a number.

My biggest red flag is why they're insisting people who have already had it get the shots. That makes zero scientific sense to me and nobody ever explains it.

There was a study done in Israel recently that indicates people who have had a prior Covid infection are much less likely to get infected with the Delta variant than people that have had both doses of an MRNA vaccine.
