The vaccine is way safer than getting covid.
Unless you are allergic to the vaccine and are medically advised not to take it.
I've had 3 of the orignal Pfizer and the bivalent booster. No bad long term effects from them. Whereas covid has a higher death rate, 2-5% chance of death is likely. The vaccine is thousands of times lower.
i would counter that.
at first, the 2-5% were projections of first time wuhan virus which was the deadliest. its gotten much less deadly since then. also hospitalisations went down a lot. also those numbers couldnt really keep up in the west. probably because chinese patients went to hospital when they were already almost diying were as in the west everyone with sniffles would be counted. the more you test the less deadly it became on paper.
right now corona isnt anything more than a mild flu. people who had it report 1-2 rough days and then a mild flu-out phase like sniffles for like a week.
almost everyone i know who got 1-3 of the shots, at least after the 2nd had mild annoying health problems. and a few very young people like mid twenties got lung embolia. actually this was my nurse and here husband from the nursing home i am in.
also people/personal constantly reported sick or had a feeling of generell unwellbeing.
my sister got all the shots, she constantly has corona like every 3 month.
another friend also a nurse, reported that all who got the shots constantly are missing at the work place and the non vax'd personal had to compensate.
i am the one with no shot at all , plus 2 friends, and i had the novel deadly corona virus, with exact the symptoms described before. all 3 of us non vaxed had much less trouble with corona, one of the 2 didnt even get it or at least didnt notice. ma girlfriend though had pneomonia both times she got it , was sick for a rough 1 week. though she was suspectible to this before already to regular flu. everytime she got something she hang in deep no matter if corona or not.
i am talking no-cfs regular "healthy" people. the cfs community might have different experiences. and the vax might be more beneficial or not. idk. there are no studies that i am aware of who track corona and vax side effects in cfs and chronic sick people.
" The vaccine is thousands of times lower."
i doubt this even more, right now the spike protein is causing all the bad effects in the VAX as well as corona infection. but the corona vax is a constant source of new spike proteins. i dont know if people know how this mRNA vaccine actually works?
the mRNA enters the body cells, and let them build the spike protein, actually like a virus. but nobody can tell how long the cells will build the spike protein. there is no off switch. so once vax'd there is a constant source of bodily produced spike proteins.
i am no anti-vaxxer, i like the principle of immunisation by vaxines and i am vaxed against ton of stuff. but this mRNA stuff doesnt get near my body anytime soon.
i am also not against mRNA vax in general, but the current thing does work in ways i doubt. 1) why build the dangerous spike protein and not other parts of the virus? 2) why put it in the body like a nuke, you do not know which cells will work on it - they should somehow only localized infect cells with the vax 3) off switch - there must be something to turn this off.
also what people do not talk about in the media, is that current research suggests that Vitamin D blood levels of ~50ng/ml prevent corona deaths completely and reduce hospitalization and bad cases drastically.
it also increases the power of the VAX and reduces its side effects as well.
i am not saying that the vax or corona virus either are factual more dangerous/deadly. but i believe the vax to have more harmful potential to body then the actual virus.
i am also saying, get a vitamin D shot no matter if you vax or not.
I was 49 yrs old for (almost) all of 2020 when Covid was most severe and I am now 52 (in case this was one of your questions).
