My brainwashed mother is currently on a waitlist for a COVID vaccine. She used to be conservative but was brainwashed by her AWFUL manipulative friends. I am freaking out. I have tried to explain the dangers of gene therapy and how it increases her risk for oncogenesis which results in cancer. She also has medication allergies and I told her the vaccine could literally kill her because of it. I am a physiologist and I am going to be a medical doctor and she just thinks I am full of BS. I have also reminded her how Pfizer killed our 5-year-old yellow lab because they said a certain medication is safe for labs but it's toxic for them and Pfizer knows that. Unfortunately, we found that out after he died. But now all of a sudden she trusts them. If anyone has had success talking a brainwashed loved one out of getting the vaccine please share your advice

I feel for you, I've been in the same boat and thought I was making some headway with my mom, but turns out they (her and my dad) got the first vax last Monday and did not tell me til yesterday......so now I will try to talk them out of the 2nd one but don't have high hopes. There is only so much you can do. Just try and then be at peace with yourself.
I did it! She is canceling her appointment. after bashing into her head the dangers of gene therapy she decided not to do it.
Thank GOD, so happy for you!
I am so sorry they did that. Fortunately, my dad is super based so he won't be getting it. My dad is pissed and he said he might just try to remove her from the waitlist without her knowing. yeah there is only so much we can do. I am going to send her the notes from our PCP (who is based af) saying that anyone who has previously had anaphylaxis to a vaccine (like my mom, dad and I have) should not get the vaccine. I am not sure if it will help but I will try.
That's a good approach. If this or any of the other approaches don't work, maybe you can at least talk her into getting the Moderna one instead? Fewer reactions anyway and it might stall her a little.
yeah maybe. she is sold on getting the Pfizer one for some reason. I am going to try everything I can though.
Oh yikes I am sorry! hoping for the best for her!
