Covid Vaccine Roll out.

I don't recall doing so. Do you hold your views because you are loyal to the pro vax crew?
I got the impression you jumped in to defend Mr Essex. There's no denying that the vaccine appears to be effective so yes you can say I'm pro if you want. ¼ of my family haven't had it yet and I accept that, what I'm uncomfortable with is misinformation and I think it should be called out.

I think we also need to understand that some people react badly generally to all sorts. I do. Flea bites, horsefly (GGRRRRRR), some anti-biotics and so on and may be a little nervous. Especially if you have had your livelihood removed by COVID and then you are going to get a jab that may screw you up just as you are getting back to generating an income. Bit of compassion would be good. People who are hesitant on the jab are not always mad anti vax far right conspiracy theorists as the media will tell you. The vax passport though I think we should ALL oppose, regardless of this because what is next? NHS app looks to be heading towards a social credit system from what I hear. Virtue points etc. Be a good boy. I don't like that at all.
 
I have no problem with anti vax views, I have family and friends who hold them and some are quite intelligent, thankfully intelligent enough to respect that they are a minority and apart from one, don't try to impose their views on everybody else.
But I have to say that like most who follow these threads I'm fed up of reading dozens of posts that use a lot of words to argue for the sake of it but actually add nothing at all to the debate, and refuse to answer anyone who questions anything.
Another poster suggested there may be foreign agents spreading propaganda on here and maybe it's not as daft as it sounds, it would explain the almost obsessive need to post repeatedly on what should be an interesting debate.
Sometimes less is more.
You sound surprised that some ant vaxers are “quite intelligent “ 😂😂

Not sure why you quoted me? I haven't had a compassion bypass. In the context of this thread, what I don't agree with is all the 'experimental' 'untested' 'genetic modification' crap that keeps coming out.

I wasn't challenging your post but I'll challenge this one again. By all historic measures, these vaccines are experimental and untested. The RNA/ DNA element I am not qualified to comment on so I haven't.

I could think of several reasons to justify my decision for not taking the vaccine but do I really have to? People seem to think those that don't want it have been taken in by conspiracy theories from the Internet. But in actual fact I knew from the very first mention of a vaccine way back in Jan 2020 that I'd probably not bother with it and that was the end of the matter and have stuck to my guns so far.

People who havnt taken it are being called everything under the sun, selfish, cowards etc etc. Doesnt really do much to encourage me to go get it. I maybe a lot of things but at least I wasn't cracking up during lockdown because I couldn't hug my granny.

Worked every single day in 2020 while half the country sat at home with their thumb up their ass on 80% pay so I don't feel in any way selfish.

Going to have to come up with something better

Sorry, I should have said 'alterations'

No but deaths / illness from the experimental drugs will be blamed on Covid 21 and lead to the whole thing being repeated and more genetic alterations being begged for by the hard of thinking.

What is the "crap" do you understand what this "vaccine" does in your body charlie?
You think the long term side effects have been tested?

20 years today is a Sunday, you can buy me a rib roast in Colchester's finest if I'm still alive (y)
We (did) get the Kent Boys as we called them Eddie and Beaver down here once or twice a year. Think they were somewhere on the marsh. Haven't seen them for a couple years for obvious reasons. Excellent company.
