#2 At 78 and my wife at 75 with numerous serious medical issues (acute kidney failure. vaculitus and compromised immune system ) we do not think she can with stand the vaccine without having a significant medical event. CDC stated last January there just is not enough data and those with compromised immune systems should be aware of that. For me where she goes I go and I'm waiting for more data.
Finally, I just do not know what criteria her doctors used to pre-screen and authorize her for the vaccine.

#3 those with compromised immune systems

Can't benefit from a vaccine - which teaches the immune system to respond to a particular pathogen.

#4 Ref #2: ....we do not think she can with stand the vaccine without having a significant medical event.

The mathematical formula escapes me, but perhaps we should think of the 'virus' as a North bound movement from the Airy Transit Circle at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich. The vaccination, a South bound movement from the the ATC. At various speeds, both movements eventually converge creating the desired "event".

Or could I be wrong ?

#6 Myself (at age 65), I think I'll let all the guinea pigs go ahead, and I'll just watch for a while.

#7 As I told someone recently, "I'll wait until everyone else turns into a democrat zombie".

Inspector, you are not wrong in your assessment of The Secret Agent. Joseph Conrad would agree.

#9 I grow weary of hearing about it. Take the shot or don't take the shot. It's you're choice. You're a grown up, you can assess the risks for yourself and I don't care. I took mine so can I please remove this silly mask?

#10 The only problem is that some states (and Dr. Fauci) won't open up until EVERYONE is vaccinated.
And there are no more COVID19 deaths. And no more cases.

#12 There's no fucking reason for healthy people (and especially kids) to get this so-called vaccine. Even if one should contract COVID, there are plenty of treatments out there. The mean average of a healthy person dying is absurdly low.

At best, talk to me when the FDA or other competent Leviathan-run approving authority officially approves this absurd cocktail.

#13 The mean average of a healthy person dying is absurdly low. This logic is similar to that of "correcting for inflation". People who wind up dying, all have something very, very wrong with their health at that moment. Circular and deceptive pseudo-logic.
