Vaccinated are spreading the virus. I don’t know how many times this has to be said?
Well maybe they should stick to doing their jobs as healthcare professionals by caring for people without bias.
I totally wholeheartedly agree. We each individually have a responsibility to take a good care of our own health as possible. That's the best way of keeping a healthy immune system, and that is ultimately what is best for society, and 'protecting the NHS'. It astounds me the number of smokers and overweight people who you see ranting about getting the jab, as if they consider themselves superior now simply because they've been jabbed - and us unvaxxed loons who exercise, eat well, & take daily vitamins are killing everyone and a danger to society@Poddular’s post #336Bravo!
Double standards and rank hypocrisy have been in abundance these last 2 years, especially all these people who have suddenly come out of the woodwork and lecture others to, “do your bit to protect others, protect society,” blah blah blah when prior to 2020 they’d have never given these issues the time of day.
I think as well as just falling hook, line and sinker for the propaganda for some of these people it’s like a form of projection. It’s the same sort of nonsense that people who lose a lot of weight experience from friends and family members, who don’t take steps to improve their health, and come out with, “oh you’re looking too skinny now” or “I preferred the old you“ and other BS like that.
The fact is there are some of us who actively take steps to try and stay healthy and/or boost our immune systems. I wouldn’t say my diet is perfect because I do treat myself but I know I eat more fresh fruit and veg a day than a lot of people I know and most weeks of the year I don’t drink alcohol at all. I’ve had colleagues roll their eyes and tell me I’m wasting my time in the past for taking Vitamin C & Zinc and echinacea from around late September onwards annually. Ultimately I‘ve avoided a number of bugs doing the rounds in workplaces since I started doing it though and on occasions when I have developed symptoms they’ve been short lived.
For over 10 years I’ve either gone swimming or to the gym in the evening several times a week and especially during winter. When I was in school and at university my exercise used to fall off the wagon every winter and low and behold I was always coming down with bugs back then. Friends, colleagues and family members have said, “oh I don’t know how you can convince yourself to get up and go out again after coming in from work.” Equally I can’t understand how they can stay in and veg out in front of the TV night after night.
All in all I agree with what you said that the fact there are people like us, who take more steps than a lot of people to stay healthy, should be afforded just a bit more credit for “doing our bit.” I’ve also yet to see any suggestion from even the government scientists that people in my age demographic are no longer over 98% unlikely to die or develop long term health implications if they catch Covid, which was one of the key messages from the get go last March. Based on that I can’t see that it would be therapeutic treatment for me to have the vaccine. As for “doing it for the common good,” well I could easily start berating anyone who isn’t taking steps like I do to boost my immune systems during the cold and flu period.
I was about to reply sympathising as lockdown took a horrible mental toll on me too as I couldn’t see my family for a really long time but the cognitive dissonance here is real. Covid is airborne and you’re more likely to be spreading it about mingling in another country, airports etc than someone who is unvaccinated and therefore can’t really go abroad yet. Absolutely bizarre.
Make sure to get your booster shots then and if you have any heart problems you must have caught the new variant! Will peope really fall for this?
They'll try and force people but I'm now at a stage I'll be refusing a booster. I'm not agreeing to be injected indefinitely for something that some people only they know they have is due a test. I've been doubled jabbed but enough is enough.
I should not really take the bait really but, my friend died one day after her vaccine as have many others. Go to the painful period after vaccine thread to read a few stories there of young women having problems. go look all over SM forums and groups for people having problems right now
My 20 year old daughter has just completed a health care apprenticeship with the NHS, she has worked for the last 12 months for £4 an hour (half of what she could earn working at McDonald's).
You don’t have to get the opposing stance. It’s not really about for or against the vaccine. It’s about bodily autonomy, freedom to choose and the fact that coercion and blackmail is never the right way to obtain free and valid consent. Being ordered to get vaccinated or lose your job is not a free choice, it’s blackmail.
They literally said unless you are made to by your employer.
100% this. My manager at work is OTT with mask wearing and was asking people if they’d had the vaccine and if they said no he would say why not!? He had it out for me for months because I wouldn’t wear a mask or use the hand sanitizer. This man is about 25 stone and sits in his office all day shovelling crisps down his throat and is always outside vaping. I’m off work just now but my colleague who is also anti covid vax tells me he’s made comments like ‘the unvaxxed shouldn’t be allowed hospital beds’Who said it was an either/or thing??....
It's a personal choice thing...Or it should be!!
The actual point being that you only have to look around you to see a huge percentage of people do not look after their health and yet seem to want to have a say in other peoples all of a sudden.
I bet he doesn’t think the obese should be denied healthcare or the smokers be denied chemo for lung cancer though!
