Dec 29, 2020 We've discussed this in staff. In january @Slyk bans all accounts and the only way to be unbanned is to show ur vaccination card.
Dec 29, 2020 i'm only disclosing this because i'm a little loopy, but we've secretly been working w/ moderna & pfizer to include a nano chip in the vaccines that will brainwash people into posting more. go get vaccinated.
Dec 29, 2020 Might as well tell everyone that we had spacemonkey as a test case. Ever since he got vaccinated he desperately tries to post here it's f---ing insane..
Dec 29, 2020 I’ll likely take it at some point, but you are human garbage if you try to shame anybody who doesn’t.
Dec 29, 2020 People who refuse vaccination for non-medical reasons deserve to be shamed but shouldn’t be shamed because it’s counter-productive. At the end of the day, you want as many skeptical people as possible to get vaccinated & shaming them (even if they deserve it) isn’t the right approach.
Dec 29, 2020 if natural selection hasn't already played a big enough part in the epidemic w/ the refusal to wear ppe & proceed with caution, then refusing to get the vaccine certainly will.
Dec 29, 2020 Meh, disagreed. Not to say the virus shouldn’t be taken seriously, but the antivaxxers can just as easily say “why should I take a vaccine for a virus with a 99% survival rate?” And that is their individual right. The same way it’s not frowned upon for refusing the flu shot. If you, a willfully vaccinated person, take issue with that, you are either 1. Unconfident about the vaccine you just took, or 2. A control freak narcissist.
Dec 29, 2020 Because we live in a society with immunocompromised people & it’s our duty to ensure those people remain safe the same way we follow traffic laws & pass driving tests to ensure people remain safe on the road. Not to mention long term health consequences of COVID-19 post recovery are still unknown with some people already developing heart problems. This is far more serious than the Flu. This virus is far more deadlier & infectious. 300,000+ people have died in the U.S. in less than year from COVID-19. Thats with taking drastic measures such as mask mandates, social distancing, lockdowns etc. In a typical year, the flu kills 20,000-60,000; without mask mandates, social distancing or lockdowns. Vaccines as a public health tool are useless without herd immunity. To achieve herd immunity, we need high percentages of people to get vaccinated. I care about the general well-being of the country, not just myself.
Mar 8, 2021 Got my 1st dose of the pfizer vaccine yesterday. Hope all of you are able to get vaccinated as soon as possible!
Mar 9, 2021 had my 2nd dose on thursday. felt a bit worn down on friday, but caffeine surprisingly popped me out of the funk almost immediately..as far as side effects go, I was pretty fortunate. just have to wait the full 2 weeks before i'm "fully" vaccinated now.
Mar 9, 2021 h--- no, I'm not getting injected with that poison I'll let my immune system do its thing, it hasn't failed me yet.
Mar 9, 2021 July they hope we all had it here in Holland. But they're going from old - young so gonna be one of the last in line. That's fine though, good to hear it slowly goes smoothly (almost) everywhere. Lets hope they won't be different types of corona that the vaccine doesn't prevent..
Mar 9, 2021 Having my first jab on Friday. Apparently I have "underlying health issues" so I'm in the current group that's being rolled out. I had blood clots when I was 21 but that's it. Maybe a bit overweight, especially since lockdown but not something that would be on my record. So it must be a mistake but I don't care, I'll take it. We're putting a 3 month ago between first and second jab though so it'll be a while before I'm fully immune.
Mar 9, 2021 Yeah, only reason I was eligible was because I’m a teaching assistant at my university & fall under “educator” which are being prioritized right now in California.
Mar 9, 2021 Got my first shot yesterday, Arm's been sore and I've been more tired than usual - but nothing too bad.
