If not, then your post does not make any sense.

Maybe that is the point. Just more spin trying to prove a point that you do not want a shot? Whatever. If you do not wanna shot because of the invisible man in the sky, your psychic, or brand of voodoo tells you that it is baaaaaaaaad then don't get one. The end.

Frankly, if I had kids, I would listen to the world's leading health organizations, and their recommendations. But that's just me. I am sure they have a few people around those places more intelligent then auntie and her 50 years around a hospital, or cousin Joe Bob who heard from someone at work it is a global conspiracy, or some priest, other so called expert in people's circle of friends, or generations of crossing your toes for family luck in regards to medicine and sickness.

I personally can not think of a time in my life that the word 'pandemic' has been used by leading health agencies. I am not saying it hasn't ever happened, but not to my knowledge anyway.

However, these are your kids to kill any way you see fit. So go on with your bad self.


Yes... Pandemics don't have to be world wide, they can be in a single city or region of the world. Most major pandemic virus or whatever, are still active in the world. Other than the really old ones.

The flu has been pandemic before, early 90's.. and AIDS/HIV as another example.

Getting a vaccine, does not stop you from getting the flu. It makes it so when you get the flu, you can beat it quicker.

It doesn't mean a person that hasn't had the vaccine, can catch it quicker... it just means they "might" get sicker.


Again, if this was pandemic as in killing people off... I would be all over it. But because you live on this half of the world, you missed out on the other half going through it during the Winter - and it looks like they all lived.
