First off, I wouldn't take it. This is nothing more than an a little bit of an aggressive form of the flu. It's why they're not even focused on the flu anymore. Because it's a form of it. The biggest difference with what's going on now is they are dwelling on (for the money, the political gain and control of people.) all the numbers. They don't talk about people dying with Covid but blaming any disease, illness on Covid. There's no honesty in that....but it's not shocking.
Now for those who are truly wanting the vaccine, for whatever reason, I'd like to suggest something to you. I've know of two people in our area who died after receiving the SECOND dosage of the vaccination. I think it's the Second vaccine that puts the immune system in shock, it can't handle it and therefore kills the person (not all, but more than I am comfortable with.) The first vaccination gives you about 80 percent of protection. If you really feel like you need to take a vaccination, I'd strongly encourage you to just take the first shot. Even if you take both shots, you still have to 'wear the mask, socially distance, and blah blah blah.'? so why take 2 when nothing changes?
Just some thoughts to share with you all.
I've always thought it was a British term kind of like boot (trunk of a car) or lift (elevator). I've just been seeing it a lot lately and, for some odd reason, don't like the terminology. Not that it matters but I also don't like "preggers" or "baby bump". I guess I'm weird.
Edit: I guess I was right about it being British? https://slangit.com/meaning/jab
We all have our preferences. I'm OK with whatever words people want to use, as long as they pronounce them correctly and not do this lazy-speak. Ask me a question, don't aks me one. Know what I mean? Or this new trend of replacing "there's" with "it's" - it's grammatically incorrect, but I constantly hear "it's a package on the step" or "it's a red light at the end of the street" - No, THERE's a package on the step and THERE's a red light.
I'm with you and, since we're off on this tangent, if you drop something outdoors it doesn't land on the "floor". Floors are indoors. I've never heard "it's" used as you describe but "anyways", we got way off topic here.
Very good point - outside is the ground (unless you're at the bottom of the ocean, of course). :) Fun splitting hairs with you!
