New job is requiring me to be fully vaccinated

[Race Jones]

and now the fucking booster shot

 

[Playmaker88]

I'm fully vaccinated, but I completely understand people's apprehension to not getting the shot, even now, shit, especially now with delta. From flat out not trusting the gov't, to not trusting big pharma to seeing the ever undulating efficacy reports of the vaccines and new strains, it's not like there isn't anything to be skeptical about, man. I get it.

The funny thing is people dont be skeptical about shit else...

 

[Race Jones]

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

I guess.

Most of the apprehension seems to revolve around made conspiracies and misinformation.

No one ever said the vaccine was 100% effective.

We've known for the longest that this virus mutated quickly and that could cause the vaccine to be less effective. That was part of the reason they were rushing everyone to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

I suppose I can understand not trusting the government or big pharma, but in this case its in the best interests of both for the vaccines to actually work.

I'm unsure why people are still scare to get vaccinated. I understood the uncertainty at the outset especially with all the misinformation out there, but at this point more than enough people have the vaccine for us to know about any adverse effects it might have.

I cant knock people's reason for being skeptical. Most reasons at least. Pharmaceutical companies dont always get it right. There have been plenty pharm companies that released dangerous product to the public and got sued for it. Look at what happened to purdue. Using underhanded tactics to pedal their very addictive pain killers.

im skeptical of mad shit but my refusal to get vaccinated isnt “conspiracy” based. i just never considered it social distancing and mask wearing has been holding me over

There's truth to it. Some people who are extremely vocal about not trusting the vaccine engage in all sorts of unhealthy shit on a daily basis and put things in their bodies that we know are harmful.

[Race Jones]

Yeah I don't think skepticism is bad in theory...but some of the reasons people keep giving are very much full of dumbasses you wouldn't wanna find yourself agreeing with

Aside from that aspect shitty decision making in general...without a second thought

and the majority of those “harmful” things are approved by the fda….

starting to think a side effect of being vaccinated is turning into arrogant pieces of….

It is what it is ....you can have your feelings on the facts of the matter but the facts will remain.... I remember when the Plandemic documentary was floating around before educated messaging and the covid team took root people were eating that shit up

 

[Race Jones]

Is there no second option?

Like, I cant go into any of our government buildings without providing a negative covid test and the test is good for 3 days. And they require all to wear a mask including the vaccinated

i wish i had another option.

i really was fine with getting tested every week and wearing a mask

Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't care about people being skeptical. You don't want to get the flu vaccine because you think big pharma is poisoning you? That's fine. However, with COVID it's a little different because people not getting vaccinated and taking other basic precautions are why we are still dealing with COVID.

Now if you're unvaccinated but still taking precaution, it's all good, but a lot of these unvaccinated people still want to be out and about with no mask and that's the problem.
