The amount of closet scientists and infectious disease experts, biologists, pathologists just about every "gist" has surfaced on Facebook to "show what you know" or aka ... copy n paste what you read somewhere... is uncanny! I never knew I KNEW so many . 
Let's all just shift our focus and say a prayer for those who are dealing with this terrible virus, those who have lost loved ones, I'm so sorry... my heart and my prayers are with you... those who are sick, I pray for healing, those who are uncertain and scared, I pray for your peace of mind and pray you can feel certain in whatever decision you make, it will serve you the best. I pray for our doctors and nurses dealing with this daily.. I pray for their health and their endurance. I pray that God will heal our land and restore our health. 
I just had to add ..... ONLY on FB ......not BHW ?????? |

| I have no doubt this will continue to be politicized and people will have varying opinions. I also have no doubt that some will disagree with my stance and the choice I made, especially since I am a Conservative. My stance is, I will never advocate for the forcing of people to take a vaccine.BUT - I don't know how there can still be people out there who believe this virus isn't very real and can affect even healthy people to the point of death. I guess I consider those who haven't seen some people who shouldn't have died, die.... lucky. I can only assume the reasons some even healthy people are affected so gravely can be based on viral load and/or genetics. I wasn't willing to take that risk so I made the personal choice to get vaccinated. I hadn't been vaccinated against anything in 45 years! After I spoke to a doc I trust, I chose Pfizer and I am happy to say I had zero issues. I know some people have and I know they can be severe as many medications can cause. I was very scared of those side effects as well because I can be reactive, but I decided to move ahead. If I have future health issues from this, I will have to cross that bridge when I come to it. Albeit I've had blood draws and physicals since and nothing has been negatively affected. This does spark a question I've had for a while though. Why are so many people who poo-poo'd the vaccine for being rushed (which mRNA vaccines aren't new), or having negative side effects, or not being fully FDA approved, or now expecting FDA to pull full authorization, or that it doesn't protect you from getting Covid (as many vaccines don't, it does protect you with a 95% chance of not being hospitalized if you DO get it) - why are some of those same people fully on board to receive monoclonal antibodies (Regeneron) as treatment if they get Covid? That was also rushed, not FDA approved, has potential side effects, and puts SYNTHETIC antibodies into your body. So....... that's ok but a vaccine that sends a messenger to your cells on a fat lipid carrier, doesn't penetrate the nucleus to alter DNA, creates natural antibodies, and then leaves your body is not ok? I personally just don't understand the logic, but I digress. I will wrap up by reiterating what I said earlier...... I couldn't care less what people choose to do with their own bodies. I fully support the freedom to choose.  You don't want a vaccine, don't get a vaccine. I also couldn't care less what people think of the choice I made. I will live with any consequences that may arise (I don't think there will be). That is my freedom to choose. Edited for spelling...... and a quick add.

| As a nurse that works on a covid floor, I wish they would video tape a whole shift for everyone to see what is really going on. Some of you may change your minds.
PSA if you or your loved one ends up in the hospital listen to your nurses and RTs they are not yelling at you to be mean, they are yelling to keep you alive! |

I will NOT take the jab, but I do get your question on the Regeneron. I wonder, also. Glad you don't have any side effects that you can tell. It is not a vacc*ne though. I, also, want people to be able to make their OWN decisions about their healthcare, but I DO care about everyone here, and I do not like the deceit. The "virus" was created for the "vacc*ne." God bless BHW.
