My nervous nelly wife is up at Walgreens as we speak getting covid tested again. She wants to jab the kids, so I'm in a bit of a debate.
That is a tough one bud, with spouses and parents this can be a difficult conversation/decision, sorry to hear it. Children are not at any risk from this stuff and honestly I get a little pissy hearing the commercials for ages 5-12 being elegible for the jabs. It just reaffirms to me that it is nothing more than a money grab at everyone's expense health wise.
The best way I have found to open people's eyes are to have them research a few basic questions for your specific situation and talk about it after they looked them up.
Is it safe? (According to the ONLY adverse reaction reporting system we have they clearly are not. In fact they are by far the least safe ever forced on the US public)
Is it effective? (A vaccine by definition provides IMMUNITY to getting and spreading the disease which is why nobody gets Polio. Covid jabs don't stop transmission or prevent infection) Definition of a vaccine -->a substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and
provide immunity against one or several diseases, prepared from the causative agent of a disease, its products, or a synthetic substitute, treated to act as an antigen without inducing the disease.
Would they be using it if we weren't still under Emergency Use Authorization? (Absolutely not, the average time it takes to pass normal safety standards averages 10 years to study the long term effects)
What was the 2nd fastest a vaccine has ever been created? (Mumps took 4 years, but Mumps has been around since Jesus walked the Earth and there were many failed attempts at a vaccine before they found one that worked AND was safe)
What is the risk for children if they get it? Up to you to decide my friend.
Hope that helps bud!
