Frens - I’ve had three people very close to me say that they will get the shot because they are worried about long term effects after getting COVID. I hadn’t really heard much about this, but a quick cursory search has articles from places like CDC and WebMd and a few articles on people who are still having problems.
I may have missed discussions on this- but is this just big disinformation?
I understand. Sometimes it's hard to get people to think for themselves. Granted this virus was designed but the only part that was changed was a tweak to change the receptor it would attach to, hence the gain of function tweak. It's still just a coronavirus like hundreds of others we live with daily. It's been estimated that there are 200 different common cold coronaviruses. You never get the same one twice which is why as you grow older you have fewer colds. If this does anything long term it's that it makes you immune to C-19 once you've gotten it.
My friend is actually very into research- but she’s not digging deep enough. I will get to spend some time with her and maybe can open her eyes a bit. Right now, I’m the ‘tinfoil hat bestie’
