Vaccine or not?

I’ll throw in my 2 cents here. I’m a healthcare provider. I reluctantly, but willingly, got the vaccine early. Second dose was mid Jan 2020. I work in a private office setting as well as four different hospitals. My entire family (wife and four kids), except me, got Covid in early March 2020. I do believe that at that particular point in time, the vaccine was in its maximal effective time frame and against the strain it was designed to combat.

However, as Delta came and vaccine effectiveness waned, and then more so with Omicron, it became apparent the virus was becoming less virulent and the vaccine against the OG strain mostly ineffective. I finally got Covid in December (very mild) and again in May (asymptomatic, forced test for exposure at work).

NY State had mandated boosters for all HCP’s by 2/19/2022. They postponed that for 90 days on 2/17/2022 and I never got boosted. Those 90 days came and went in May and there has been no more talk about vaccines or booster mandates since. That should tel people a lot.
MISINFORMATION ALERT!!!

@evillawyer - got another rogue healthcare professional in here spouting nonsense. Get em ^
 
Because I work in the public, I do not want to miss work and I haven't, I want to
be around my family and know that I have done everything that I know to do,
and thats how I roll and people can live with it , or get over it or talk about it
for the next 6 months.
again I'll say...
Hold my beer... 100 ppl/month is hardly the public
 
You answered a different hypothetical earlier though?

So last question -

“IF” the CDC said tomorrow “we made a mistake, we were wrong about the vaccines.”
Would that change your view?
I have already addressed more than enough questions, and that last question was
supposed to be your last question

I understand if you don’t want to answer the last question.
 
The last question was if the CDC admitted they were wrong, would it change your mind.

You chose not to answer. I understand.

How many "Last" questions do you have.....if it was the crazy "if" question I told you that I do not live in "if's

I only had 1 - the CDC question.

I was simply confused by your willingness to answer one hypothetical and not the other.

It’s certainly your prerogative not to answer.
 
I’m not vaccinated or ventilated. And I work in healthcare and have been knee deep in this for 2 years. The worst thing about all this has been knowing about virology and the mistakes that have occurred in the handling of this. The best thing that could have happened was to get back to the basics but the country went in the opposite direction. The uninformed public have no idea how they have been played.
 
Just own that you were an ass, and clearly wrong, when you said get vaxed or get ventilated. That was ********.
When I said that, 800 people were dying a day in New York, that was what was happening at that time, and people that start calling names in
a debate show their own weakness and lack of vocabulary.

So I have a different question.

Knowing what we know now, with the opportunity to do it all over again -

Would you take the vaccine again?
Given my personal situation probably and the first booster also. Since knowing what I know now I think it helped me with lower symptoms. I am not taking anymore though.
 
I agree with everything you said. I assessed my risk given what was known at the time vs. the the unknowns and what several people I respect very much had said about mRNA shots. I provided documentation of antibodies post infection to the hospitals here that were "requiring" vaccination and never heard a word back.
I took an antibody test in mid 2020 and was negative so I had no protection at the time.
 
That was shown to be ******** almost immediately. In a thread that is beat everyone up over false information, you need to check your info.

I read a study that Britian concerning miscarriages from the vaccine. this was in the early stages of the vaccine and there was an over 200% increase in 0 miscarriages. So there are more than one study concerning this. And I wasn't in some race to post "false" information, don't be a d-bag.
