Trump said Vaccines are safe and they are wonderful. He also said that many people, especially his supporters, are hesitant to take the vaccine. He then said that there is such a thing as choice and he thinks it is very important people make their own choice.
We are all constantly scratching out heads asking why is he pushing vaccines. Why does he keep saying that they are safe?
Lets take a step back and ask ourselves what is the real important question?
Even before you ask whether the vaccine is safe whats the first question you need to ask?
"Is the vaccine necessary?"
Thats the real question, and if the answer is NO, then it does not matter if its safe or wonderful, we do not need to take it. Now go back to what Trump said and see what his answer to this question is?
He is clearly answering this question, and saying "No its not necessary". If he really wanted to push the vaccine, he would have said "If people dont take the vaccine many many people will die. Especially my supporters. I really implore everyone to take the vaccine"
So, can we stop agonising about this ?
Side effects for drugs have been happening for decades. Many people believe this is an acceptable risk to take over getting the dreaded COVID-19. I've heard it has killed at least 100 million people and there are body bags lining the roads because we have no where to put them. COVID-19 is literally worse than a nuclear war at this point.
Irrational fear will convince many people of many things. People are willing to risk death by vaccine over death by COVID-19. I've heard COVID-19 will literally melt your face off.
People believe this shit. The vaccine is the mental cure even if it isn't the physical cure.
Surely, you jest
Correct, he jests. And don't call him Shirley.

I joke, but the fear is real.
Fear is the "invisible enemy".
