    I believe in being prepared myself, but, I don't believe in being a part of a huge government experiment and pumping poisons into my body. IF and WHEN this alleged vaccine is proven 100% effective and safe, we might consider it Until then, it's just not worth the risk to me.

    I think you have read my testimony about what happened to my sister. Bottom line she was given a vaccine at age 3 that destroyed her brain. So I’m cautious as all should be. If they can ever get this vaccine to be effective with a minimum of risks then perhaps I would take it myself but right now I’m cautious.

    They could - but they chose the shots - Their company - their decision.
    Suppose I come visit you at your house - and you want me to remove my shoes - and I refuse ....

    Bottom line - your house - your rules....

    Does that mean you do not own a car - some 40,000 people are killed every year in vehicle collisions - and 4 million people are seriously injured.
    You know you are right - I now refuse to be in a car until they are 100% safe!

    Yes but I don’t have to fund them nor work for them... that’s my choice.

    You, my friend, are comparing apples and oranges. A car IS NOT injected into my body. You really need to try another approach...this one's not working.

    WOW - I never thought of that!!! ok - based on an injection it MIGHT be apples and oranges

    BUT I was bringing out the point that you insist it must be 100% safe - That is comparing
    Apples to Apples

    Very few things in this life is 100% safe.

    I disagree....it's still based on the premise of something being injected into the body...you're trying to distort the issue. Administrator or not...you're being dishonest.

    I think I made that clear by mentioning the "premise." But, I guess English is your second language....right?

    NO - you did NOT make it clear - and I do not appreciate the sarcasm.

    NOW - if you don't want something injected in you - that is you business
    and I dont think the govt should make you -
    A business is different.
    Bottom line - if you don't want to follow their rules - then you must deal with that decision


    In post 41 you stated "IF and WHEN this alleged vaccine is proven 100% effective and safe, we might consider it Until then, it's just not worth the risk to me." BUT I still stand by the statement that nothing is 100% -

    Or is it that is your excuse to never take the Chinese virus shot.
    If so - that is your decision -

    BTW - due to a decision I have made- the VA hospital will not allow me in.

    NO SARCASM was involved. And did you mean that's "your" business? A business ISN'T different if they're violating HIPPA laws, and that's what they are doing by asking about one's medical records. I don't HAVE to take the vaccination...both my wife and I have medical exceptions...and besides, it's really none of your business. But, in the interest of peace and to derail your attempt at sarcasm towards me, I answered. You truly are a piece of....work! LOL I don't make EXCUSES...Seems like that's the job of Administrators from the BB! I'm glad to know you haven't taken the "jab!" We have family in the VA, and we can't visit But, that's okay...we can talk over the phone and facetime or Zoom!
    Have a wonderful day! :)

    Actually I posted several links elsewhere that HIPPA does not cover as much as some people think

    Didn't post them here. ;) As far as I know, it covers patient's privacy and medical records, including requests from employers...unless the person employed is on their "self-insured" major medical insurance plan. Still, there are several legal hurdles they have to jump over to get that information. The employee still has the right to contest it since they have to hire an "administrator" such as BCBS or Humana, etc to administrate the plan. You may forget, I used to be an employer years ago.

    This really chaps my ****. The first government ‘lock out’ trial balloon…..who do they go to?! The VA! These vets have all taken every method of shot……multiple times that they may not have wanted, & actually served this country! The thanks they get is being the first to be kicked over to be made an example of what can happen if you don’t obey. Obey to be part of their clinical trial. Obey to take the free shot that you will be responsible for any negative outcome that is a result of it. Chapped.
    For some reason I thought you had taken the shot, one of the mods said the only negative they had was the fifteen minutes of waiting at the VA. Maybe Squire.
