No problem at all started because of a typo on my part. I'm not one of those internet grammar and typing police people and thank you for not being one yourself
 
LOL....at this point, it may well be. Who knows what is truth and what is staged anymore.

“We do not instigate.” Sounds perfectly spontaneous to me. I’m sure the young woman was not directed by anyone. Then again I always thought professional wrestling was real.

I would not get one.

I've never had a flu shot. I'm 54 and have never had the flu

The odds of me getting C-19 and it killing me are actually less than me having a very bad negative reaction to a vaccine.
Not so sure about that, you are over 50, are you overweight, have other existing health problems etc.. That is impressive though about the flu..
 
If you’re not worried and don’t want to get the vaccine to protect yourself and others (perhaps including your own family members), that’s on you. But your chances of getting it are increased substantially from your close friends or family or other “unworried” random contacts you may have. Anyone who chooses not to be vaccinated is a potential carrier, as well as a potential recipient. Really, it’s not that hard.

People having a concern over taking a vaccine that will not have any long term testing is perfectly legitimate. Especially when those people are not a high risk for a severe case of Covid, those people who are not elderly with significant health issues.

I'm 54. Have been running 4-5 days per week & at least 20-40 miles per week since mid 90s'. Have completed over 25 half-marathons, several full marathons, the entire series of Spartan Races, and several Olympic Triathlons.

I barely eat a food that is fried, and I limit my alcohol consumption to at most 2 days per week and I minimize the consumption on those days. Since about 2005 I began a routine of taking max doses of Nitric Oxide daily.

So no. I am not over-weight. I do not have existing health problems. And in the last 30-35 years I have barely had a cold.
 
If a vaccine is safe and available, it may not be for a while. A JAMA video about vaccine development from this AM suggested that getting to and then through Phase 3 clinical trials is not going to be a fast or easy process. There also isn’t a widely available rescue medication against SARS CoV - 2 to back up a large human trial of a vaccine yet. There are artificial antibodies that might serve as this option, but making them widely available will be a new challenge.
Meanwhile, in Italy, researchers studying the virus are saying that their projects are becoming more difficult because of the continuing drop in cases along with what appears to be a decline in the severity of the COVID cases they are seeing now.
 
Will not or are at least considering not taking the vaccine when\ if it is available. What is your position relative to receiving the vaccine ? Are in....out....or....maybe? Can the Govt compel its use?

I'm going to stick to my tequila 3 shots a day.
 
I'm not at all anti vaccine, but this one (if there is one) looks like it's going to be a rush job

I don't rush on brake jobs, and I don't want to rush on taking a vaccine, either
