I've been fully vaxed since February and had no adverse effects other a sore arm for a few days at the injection site. Unless you sick and flabby genetically, there's no reason to be scared of the vaccine at this point.
New job is requiring me to be fully vaccinated

Alot of information, but my Lady who is a Scientist and has a PHD Biochemistry, Cell and Developmental just answered some questions about the booster shot. Thought it can contribute to the thread. She also mentioned for when folks look at scientific articles, to click on hyperlink to get to primary research article and read the "abstract". If the abstract is structured, read the "conclusion" section of it for major takeaways stated simply and succinctly
Q1: What does scientists say about this booster shot? Is it safe. How much RNA is safe for our bodies? So many questions...Also, the National News Media has not mentioned all the Covid Amputee's.
Her response:
A1: Yes! Ask ALL the questions!
The upside about these mRNA vaccines is that they exploit the ephemeral characteristic of RNA. Not only is RNA an inherently unstable molecule, but our cells also have many well regulated processes devoted to quickly locating and degrading it. With this, the mRNA that was injected during your first and second vaccine doses is looooooong gone from your body at this point, so there won’t be any RNA building up within your body with a booster shot. Sooooo about these booster shots…
Our lab hasn’t seen any evidence to support the need for booster shots. Rather, we’re seeing a sustained immune response in vaccinated folks (IgG+ against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein) 6 months after receiving a complete vaccination protocol. With monthly sampling of our study participants, we’re able to follow everyone and will continue to actively monitor these trends on a weekly basis. But plainly: the current trends don’t yet show a waning immune response 6 mo following a full vaccination protocol, meaning the vaccine is still effective. This is a great thing!
It’s important to note, however, that I’m speaking of relatively healthy individuals here. Data shows immunocompromised individuals and those on immunosuppressive drugs mount weaker immune responses to the available COVID-19 vaccines. Providing a booster shot to this subgroup of people helps them achieve an immune response that is comparable to what’s seen in “healthy” individuals with the original two doses.
My personal two cents? Worldwide vaccine availability is way too poor for me to support booster shots to non-immunocompromised individuals in the US right now. The data doesn’t necessarily support it yet and I’d rather focus on getting vaccines to countries in need than try to boost here. We are all connected through travel and trade so I feel it’s important to maximize the number of fully vaccinated people worldwide and THEN talk boosters… but that’s just me.
As for the amputee literature, it’s been chilling in my “Read Me” folder so I don’t know much about it yet. Please hold while I yank a few articles out and see what’s going on with that :)

I'll post the other question later so it won't be too much information, but here is the article to support what she said :)

How Long Will Your Coronavirus Vaccination Last?
Yale Medicine experts are continuing to study how long the vaccines will provide protection—and how that could impact booster shots.

Globally, the most common foodborne parasite, with over 1.6 billion cases yearly, doesn't come from pork or any animal for that matter...
... it comes from raw vegetables.
Pork ain't the problem y'all think it is.

The parasite is called Ascaris, and when they collect in your intestines the shit looks like ramen noodles.
Once I found that shit out, I was like "well fuck it... Lemme holler at this here bacon".
Just don’t get Johnson and Johnson. They can’t get shit right.

Without doing any research, I think you're talking about parasites on the vegetables, not inside the vegetables. That's why you're supposed to rinse the vegetables off before you eat them.
But I've never heard of vegetables being unhealthy because they have parasites. That's news to me.
I got the Moderna two-shot series earlier this year as soon as essential workers (manufacturing) were allowed to get it. No ill effects at all. It's not about me. I think I can survive getting sick. I don't want to pass that sickness on to someone who may not be able to recover. Trying to do my part as a fellow human being.
You gotta read everything, not just the stuff that falls in line with your system of values. If you've never thought to google "parasites from vegetables" then you probably would never see that.
Haven't read every page, but me job is requiring vaccination by 10/15 so everybody can come back to work 10/18.
I'm vaxxed so I'm good but I hope we get to keep a couple of days of remote work per week.

Oh no you have to be protected against a deadly virus
Poor you.
Poor you.
U can still get covid with the vaccine, the vaccine is just so that covid isn't as potent and won't have you in the hospital on tubes.not to mention everyone i know that is fully vaccinated has covid or getting over covid. ive managed to go this entire pandemic, traveling and all, without covid and i feel like it would be just my luck to get vaccinated and catch it
YIPEEEEEE
What anti vaxxers think will happen if yall take the vaccine?
Like forreal I wanna know
Like forreal I wanna know
Earth will be uninhabitable by then so you might as well roll that dicemy biggest fear is that in 2027 they r going to be like “opps sorry we made a mistake yall”
its irrational i know but none of this shit makes sense
I see I'm going to have to start trademarking my sayings on the internet again
Bottom line: too many folks that didn’t even pass high school biology think they’re virologists now. Just take the vaccine.
