CDC and NIH employees leaving in record numbers, low morale.

So you think everyone who is skeptical of Covid vaccines is a drug addict? Just wondering....

This is a serious question by the way, I would like to assume that's not the case but figured I ask anyway just to be sure.

No. The point is hypocrisy. We'll take other medications from doctors such as anti biotics and anti virals without question. We'll even take over the counter pain and allergy medications. But when they role out a vaccine, some people are like "NOOOOOO! dey put da baddd cheymicols in da vaccinez duurrrr duurrrrrr"

Did we not learn a goddamn thing from Polio anyone?

1955. The polio vaccine developed by Dr. Salk and colleagues is licensed in the U.S. Before the polio vaccine, the disease had been a major cause of disability in children. About 16,000 cases of polio (paralytic poliomyelitis) occurred each year in the U.S. in the 20th century compared with none in 2020.

There is a difference though and that is you can refuse the other medication and nothing is done to you for having said no. Say no to a Covid shot and you can lose your job and suffer other penalties for it. I can't think of any other time people were essentially trying to bribe and coerce people into taking medicine. If it was effective in doing what was claimed it did then you wouldn't need to do any of that. It seems to me that they were banking on people just taking it without question once they stoked enough fear into people that those who bought into the fear would swallow it down and drive everyone else into submission out of the fear that anyone who said no would be harmful to them because people who are in a panic cease doing any thinking as they run on pure instinct.

If the government was so concerned with your health, why didn't they do something like this for the flu when it rampaged the country over the years causing untold amounts of people to get sick, become hospitalized and even die from it? My guess is there wasn't any real money to be made from it hence why they never really pushed it like they did with Covid especially when they knew that the Covid shot pie was only going to be cut into three pieces in the states. There are probably too many suppliers of the flu vaccine so the money to be made wouldn't be worth the cost in pushing it.

Let me guess? Are you going with the My body My Choice Argument or is this Reverse Psychology? Just suck it up and get the shot, bro.

People don't want it when it's mandatory. They only want it when they can't have it. I remember an awful lot of people in the media begging for a vaccine to stop this virus. Now that we have a vaccine, people are against it. Funny how that works. Now they'd rather get the virus and walk around spreading it and slam the government and the CDC.

It's always been like that in the medical field. It's mandatory for nurse's and doctors to get a flu vaccine. Now it's Covid. Of course the government and corporate business' can make it mandatory. If you choose to work for them, you automatically agree to the terms. Why so surprised?

I've been with two women who work in the medical field and they have to have mandatory flu and covid shots.

They did for the 1918 Spanish Flu. It took them a long time to come up with a vaccine to fix it.


They did it for Polio.


They did it for Swine Flu.


Health departments, the CDC, doctors all encourage you to get dosed up. Even if the government didn't care about your health. When an epidemic/ pandemic starts, those rich politicians risk getting sick too. So they need you not to have it so they don't get it. They're not immortal you know. They're not exempt from catching it and dying from it.

You and me paid for it....with our tax dollars.

Because with all the various mutations of influenza present, there's essentially no way to vaccinate against every single flu strain out there.

Now we're seeing the same thing happening with SarS-CoV2; there are now multiple strains and variants so unless a universal vaccine can be created... *shrugs*
 
I don't blame people for being skeptical of new medcine especially when they are forcing you to have it and using the threat of unemployment to coerce people into taking said drug. Keep in mind it was the so called experts that for years argued that cigarettes weren't harmful to your health. The same experts also refused to admit agent orange was sickening Vietnam vets and so forth. The government has been insistent that they have all the answers in spite of seeing so much of wha they said was certain ended up being wrong. They have been wrong on a lot of things regarding Covid. How many things can you get wrong before you start asking legitimate questions and expecting legit answers?

I became skeptical of this rushed vaccine the moment they demanded being immune from all damages done by this fake vaccine to move forward.
 
But they don't have a problem abusing other substances.....

Exactly! That meme is hilarious by the way. :lol:
