I am wondering what the long term consequences are going to be, for individuals who do not want the vaccine? Will they be ostricised, and punished by various organisations - employers/DWP/the local community? Will their freedom be restricted because they are a risk to the vulnerable? So many questions
I am interested to know which decision you have made, as I am in a similar situation.
Oh the irony.
There’s talk of not being able to work, not being able to attend gigs, concerts and events, no entering shops, no access to public travel, no leaving your immediate area, basically if you don't get vaccinated, you can leave your house for your daily exercise and that's it.
I work in early years and my boss has ready said once early years workers become eligible for the vaccine, she will be letting people go who refuse to have it. She has already asked several of us who haven't signed the petition to get make early years practitioners eligible why we haven't signed it.
I don't even know if she can do any of that!!
At the moment, my answer is no, I'm not having it. I'd rather wait as long as possible and see what happens. They don't even know if the vaccine prevents spread, which they initially said it does. They basically sold the vaccine as a miracle cure that prevents the spread and it's now looking like that Covid actually mutates and the vaccine will need to be a yearly vax so will pretty much work like the flu vaccination and Covid will actually replace the flu.
Most vaccinations don't prevent you contracting the illness, it lessens the impact of the virus on the body. There's apparently no long term effects as once the vax enters your body and does what it has to do, it leaves your system after 48 hours and then it's your own immune system that does the work.
For now, I'd rather hold fire and see how things pan out. Take out my job role and I'm not eligible for it till November anyway according to the calculator but I'm not happy about being told if I don't get it immediately then I am out of a job. Ironic, considering we accept unvaccinated children whose parents are anti vaxers.
Devils advocate tho , some of these nhs colleagues who are reluctant to get it may have worked alongside or been friends with nhs colleague who took severely ill after the swine flu vaccine and had to medically retire from their job
When swine flu was happening, the Dr and Nurse tried to force it onto my then 3 year old. They told me that if I didn't inject him, he could potentially be dead within a year as swine flue was so dangerous. The local schools had closed down because of it.
Weirdly, they had 4 pupils ill out of both schools and within two months, schools opened up, they went back and no more was said about it.
And I never consented for him to have the vaccination.
or make you infertile and the rumours of ALL the people who have died from it but it is being covered up by the MSM can get in the bin.
