So he got the jab(father in law). Has and had some issues since shaking, fainting, high bp etc.. Wife asks about delta variant today and about the jab and whats going on (She cant stand to read the news anymore) So I try to comfort her/but tell her the truth/keep her calm.. but cant just unload on her what may be coming. She listened a lot today more than normal about the jab. She asked why arent they doing antibody tests? Why are they pushing the vaccine if its not working? It's tough having this conversation believing her dad will be incapacitated in months maybe. Thats it anybody else in a similar situation?? Like slowly implying to your wife her dad may die.

Are you in a risk group?
If not, the answer is easy, don’t take the jab.
The goal we’re all after, taking the jab or not, is herd immunity, right?
Statistics are showing us that getting the jab doesn’t necessarily give you immunity (most famous Texas Dems in DC)
So for the humanity to get herd immunity as soon as possible, the best strategy is to jab the risk group to prevent deaths and serious illnesses, and use the rest of the population as spreaders.
Doing this will ensure that the virus is spreading as fast as possible through the population, while killing as few as possible.
If you’re in a risk group, it’s a tougher question, and I don’t have the answer to that unfortunately, other than “my body my choice”.
