As many of you will already know if you have read some of my previous posts and the comment threads under them, some of my friends here are in favor of getting the COVID-19 vaccine, while others are not and do not support it for various, in my view, very legitimate reasons.
Sadly, both the present U.S. administration and certain health officials — you know who they are — have used this situation to further divide people, so that now considerable hate and animosity has been directed at people who refuse to be vaccinated for whatever their reasons.
As I have stated in previous posts, whether or not one gets the vaccine is a very personal choice, and this choice should NOT be taken away from us through forced mandates, because then we become a dictatorship and are no longer truly free.
Furthermore, if we allow them to force the vaccines on us, then they will be emboldened to pressure us further, and force on us whatever else they please, because we will have already shown weakness under pressure. That is a very dark road to go down, my friends.
But what I really wanted to say to everyone is the following: Just because you personally got the vaccine and are currently fine, does NOT necessarily mean that everyone who gets the vaccine will be fine.
In fact, as I am sure many of you are already aware, that is most certainly not the case. By their own admission, both the Biden administration, the CDC and others have candidly stated that literally thousands of people have ALREADY suffered negative reactions to the vaccines to varying degrees. Some have even died from taking the vaccines.
My friends, this is NOT just some wild conspiracy theory coming from some crazy person. It is verifiable medical fact which has been clearly confirmed by people both in the government, and in the medical profession.
That being the case, how can anyone ridicule and shame those of us who refuse to get vaccinated? How can anyone — the government, medical professionals, business conglomerates, small businesses, universities, schools, etc. — in good conscience pressure and force any of us to get vaccinated, when they know that it might quite possibly end in tragedy — including loss of life — for some of us?
To me personally, it is like playing a game of Russian Roulette. You just never know who is going to get the bullet, but someone always does, because that is the nature of the game.
Does anyone have the right to force us to take a vaccine which might seriously sicken us or even kill us? Despite their seemingly scientific explanations and their seemingly logical reasoning, I think not!
As I mentioned in a few previous posts, I am more afraid of getting the vaccine due to potential negative side effects, than I am of COVID-19 itself.
As it turns out, a recent poll revealed that this is in fact true of a majority of American adults who currently remain unvaccinated. We are talking about millions of people, my friends. Are we all wrong for feeling this way? Again, I think not.
In my particular case, I ALREADY have breathing issues and longterm lung damage, due to the fact that in recent years I have suffered from two bouts of DVT — Deep Vein Thrombosis, or blood clots in my legs — which the second time around led to Acute Bilateral Pulmonary Emboli.
The latter means that I had multiple blood clots which had traveled up my legs and into every single node of my lungs. I was in very bad shape, it was very painful for me to even breath, and I could have easily died if any of those blood clots had traveled to my heart or to my brain.
As a result of the aforementioned, I am now on an anticoagulant — or blood thinner — for life, to hopefully prevent any additional blood clots from forming in my body. This has greatly restricted my diet for reasons I won’t get into here, created problems with being able to take certain other drugs, and other issues.
By the way, everything I have stated here regarding my health can be confirmed by hospital records and by my personal physician, who incidentally respects my decision to not take the vaccine.
Now, are any of you reading this aware of the fact that one of the known negative side effects of taking the vaccines is in fact thrombosis, or the formation of blood clots? If you don’t believe me, look it up for yourself.
Blood clots is the LAST thing that I need; and as I said, that is precisely why I have been taking daily doses of Warfarin for a number of years now.
So tell me something. Do you honestly believe that the government has the moral right to shame me, to pressure me, and to force me to take a vaccine which could very well bring on the very thing I am fighting against, and which could potentially kill me? Do they have the moral right to take away my freedom to choose for myself when it comes to the issue of the COVID-19 vaccines?
Now with me, my decision to refuse the vaccine has to do in large part with DVT, Acute Bilateral Pulmonary Emboli, damaged lungs and breathing difficulty, and the potential for thrombosis. With someone else, it might be some other medical condition.
But here’s the thing. Even if there is no concern for any current medical condition, as I have stated before, in my view, no government or health agency has the political, medical or moral right to nullify and take away our right to choose for ourselves when it comes to deciding whether or not to take the vaccine.
No matter how scientifically sounding, or medically sounding, or logically sounding their reasoning may seem, when it comes to our bodies, we alone have the right to make the final choice. Not them. This is my position regarding this issue. You can agree or disagree as you each wish, but I will not debate the issue with anyone.
