I'm fully vaccinated and I have had my booster. No, I don't know "what's in it". Neither this vaccine or the ones I had as a child. Nor do I know what's in the 11 secret herbs and spices at KFC.

you get a leaflet purportedly telling you what's in it, as did your parents for other vaccines. Why you mention KFC is unclear, but if you dunno what's in something, why have it?

I also don't know exactly what's in Ibuprofen or any other painkiller-- they just treat my headaches & my pains.

the ingredients are on the blessed box, and you can do deep research on those ingredients, if you bothered to. They existed a lot longer than this covid vax did.

I don't know what's in tattoo ink, botox and fillers, or every ingredient in my soap, shampoo or deodorants. I don’t know the long term effect of mobile phone use, or whether or not that restaurant I just ate at REALLY used clean foods and washed their hands.

again ingredients for most of these are on the box/bottle and can be easily researched if you made an effort to. The fact you don't speaks volumes about your own inability to look out for yourself.

There's a lot of things I don't know.

yes, we know. You're objectively ignorant of practically everything around you that you buy and use. That is painfully obvious. Why is this something you seem to be willing to let everyone else find out about you is the mystery to me.

I do know one thing: life is short. Very short. And I, personally, still want to do things. I want to travel and hug people without fear, and find a little feeling of life "before".

tell me, when you got double vaxxed, wasn't that supposed to make all those things possible? Perhaps it's not the disease stopping those things, but the government you are bending the knee to? Think critically for once, I beg you, before you shorten your life further with an experimental shot.

Throughout my life I've been vaccinated against many diseases. Measles, mumps, rubella, polio, chickenpox, hepatitis, influenza, tetanus. We trusted the science, and never had to suffer through or transmit any of those said diseases.

what you described is an immunity to a disease. yet for the covid vax, you can still transmit and catch the disease, and most people hospitalised currently have been vaccinated. Not really the same as all the other vaccines you mentioned which are purportedly granting an immunity then, is it?

I'm vaccinated. Not because I’m a sheep or to please the government. Not to make other people do it.

give it some time, and a few more government lies. soon you'll demand we all get it because you're afraid your vaccine won't work without everyone having one. And when you do, I'll throw this copy pasta back in your face and call you the hypocrite you've become.

But I don't want to: die from Covid-19,

no, but you'll be happy to get a life long side effect we haven't had time to collect data on yet, won't you?

• clutter a hospital bed if I get sick,

well the covid vaccine doesn't stop that happening. More people in the UK and US are vaccinated that are hospitalised than those of us vaccine free

• not be able to hug my loved ones

the vaccine won't stop you being a spreader, so the only thing stopping this is either you, your loved ones, or the government. I expect its most likely the latter, isn't it...

• not be able to travel & enjoy events

again its the government doing this to you. You can always get rid of your mp/politician with a no confidence by election or a primary. Oh you didn't know you could do that did you? Well, perhaps you should learn to think and research your options before you do silly copy/pasta nonsense to virtue signal your ignorance.

• live my life in fear

well, you submitted to injecting yourself with an unknown quantity of crap because you were afraid, and do it over and over despite nothing really changing. So from my perspective, you just proved you are living in a constant state of fear.

if you think you aren't a sheep, learn to do research on what you take and get stabbed into you. All this sounded like to me is "baa baa baa baa baa" bleating. Perhaps you should reconsider your choices, before they kill you, my friend.
