Yeah, you said it better than I did.. . . . Those long-term effects of the infection are real, seen with my own eyes, as opposed to any theoretical long-term effects of the vaccine.
Do the critical thinking and make your choice.
Especially since only ~5% of those vaccinated in the US received the J & J shot....If the chance of getting blood clots from the J&J shot are .001%, it's sure amazing that I keep bumping into people it happened to.
SyaNo regrets at all. My wife's side of the family is split on who has been vaxed, and who has not. Yes, I understand that covid varies widely from person to person. But those who have received the shot, have either not been infected or only ill for a week. Those who have not been vaxed have been ill for 3-4 weeks. That being said, those who have not received the shot, have not actually admitted to having covid. . . . just sick.
I'm coming up on the recommended 6 mo booster. It'll be the "tweaked" version, so we'll see. Not sure I'm gonna do the flu and covid at the same time like last year though.

Nooooooo say it isn't so Sierra1, now looking back at the evidence it's seems that that it was a money grab and very little though to the consequences. I love capitalism but it has its faults.
I haven't heard any vaccine bad news. I did see something that said 9 out of 10 covid deaths were people that were over 50 yrs. 90%. That was scary.. . . . The information that is bleeding out is not good.
Good thing you are 12 years oldI haven't heard any vaccine bad news. I did see something that said 9 out of 10 covid deaths were people that were over 50 yrs. 90%. That was scary.
The in-laws that don't get vaxed are of similar thinking. All I know is that I caught Omicron before it was really out and about. I didn't think it was covid, 'cuz I wasn't having the stereotypical symptoms. And it only lasted about 5 days. By the time I was done with it, the news about the new symptoms was coming out. Wife caught it, 5 days, and done. Those that were unvaxed were down hard for about a month.Nooooooo say it isn't so Sierra1, now looking back at the evidence it's seems that that it was a money grab and very little though to the consequences.

Not sure what info is bleeding out from whereIn retrospect do any of you who have been vaccinated now regret it? The information that is bleeding out is not good.

Not sure what information bleed you're talking about, but I'm an older gent (half again past 50) with asthma and a few other risk factors. I have taken both Moderna shots and the first two boosters so far and am chasing down the new one. No regrets and no illness and I'm around a lot of people that are anti-vax and apparently have a mask allergy. I've lost friends, I believe unnecessarily, that were somewhat politically opposed to either, and it saddens me. I don't know anyone of any age group that was vaxxed and tested positive that has had more than a mild case. It's serious stuff that can affect the rest of your life (look up long Covid) and nothing to mess around with. Maybe just my opinion, but I'm okay with that.In retrospect do any of you who have been vaccinated now regret it? The information that is bleeding out is not good.
