I will never take that vaccine. The virus will mutate, the long term ailments of the vaccine. Why would anyone inject themselves with something foreign their body? Why not stop it using logic and if we all stay at home until it ends, no more virus will be around!
A. Mae
December 1, 2020 at 11:06 pm
@Sentient Tent sure all that is true, but people are still dying from it. Despite being less contagius than covid, despite the vaccines. People are STILL dying(in numbers) each year. Not to mention these vaccines are a complete joke. My dad got a shot last year and funny enough caught quite a bad flu a week after the shot. Mind you the last time he had the flu was 20years ago. Im not saying the vaccine had anything to do with him catching the flu, its just funny because it made zero difference whatsoever.

No 1 question people need to start asking themsleves: Since there is nothing pointing at there even existing a virus other than the regular influenza… why are those in power so desperate to get people vaccinated? Since they never cared about human lives before.. especially not when bombing other contries to total destruction to get their agenda going. And now the same group of people wants to inject you with something that is not supposed to be in your body… from corporations that make money off of people being sick.. What could possible be wrong lol.
Are people this stupid for real?

RANDOM FACT: May was once considered an incredibly ill-omened time to get married. There’s an adage for it actually, which goes: “Marry in May and you’ll rue the day”. It’s not clear where exactly the saying comes from, but there must have been a pretty good reason to not get married in one of the most beautiful months of the year! 😎

There ISN’T anything extraordinary about Covid-19. Since all contagions must pass through the population at least once, it’s only that power over humans is that your immune system doesn’t recognize it. Once you’ve had it, your immune system will recognize it and create antibodies. It’ll fissile out.
Sentient Tent
December 2, 2020 at 12:04 am
Well that’s the point of a vaccine, to pass resistance to a contagion without the loss of life and function from having large populations being subjected to the disease.

Maybe focus on eliminating things like genetically modified food, herbicides sprayed on organic food, hormonal inflamed animals working non-stop in concentration camps to produce more depressed meat, chemtrails sprayed above our head, rid soda, cigarettes, and alcohol, promote an actual healthy diet, stop using the general public as test rats for your witchcraft pills and dna/rna altering vaccines. Let’s get to the root of things friends, what they’re doing here is the end. Their complete logic and common sense is corrupt or they aren’t who they say they are, most likely both.

I think that in the first place less educated/less performing humans should volonteer to take part in the vaccine trials as objects. Viruses don’t care as biologically those people are still humans but it might be difficult for them to contribute to humanity in some other way. That lady seems to have decided that the best she can do is to take part in the trials (she might have lost her job anyway). Thanks for contributing in any case!
