Why I'm Not Getting The Vaccine
Disclosure: This post was censored on Medium and social media as "in violation of rules". I reject this attempt to stully debate. It's our children, it's science to have debate on this subject.
I’m writing this not to evangelize but because of some recent comments about myself, my body, my refusal to get a vaccine as putting me into the category of drunk drivers, murderers, criminals, the immoral, the psychotic and mentally deranged.
I’m writing this so I can simply point people to this document of my thought process, research and the rational for not getting the COVID 19 vaccine. I’ll list my reasons and then briefly as possible share some analysis and commentary for those reasons.
Before doing so, let me make clear three things. 1. I, in no way, deny others the right to make their own decision regarding getting the vaccine or not. 2. I do think those over 60, those with underlying medical conditions SHOULD get a vaccine. 3. There is not any vaccine hesitancy, what I see is incredible vaccine certainty, militancy and that is a deep cause of my concern given my own understanding of history and medicine, eugenics and legalized drugs.
Why I Am Not Going To Get The Jab
#1 Reason. Natural Immunity. Natural immunity offers stronger benefits than any vaccination process. If you have natural immunity to COVID 19, you should not get a vaccine. This article gives a good backdrop to what natural immunity means vis a vis COVID 19. Read this brief by WHO, in particular the conclusions. Dr. Moran, has a good rundown on the best studies showing natural immunity does last and provide protection. No vaccine needed.
#2 Reason. The lack of regulation, testing and process in vetting the safety of this vaccine. We don’t understand the long terms effects of this new type of mRNA vaccine. The medical emergency should apply to the unhealthy and at risk (elderly, health care workers etc …) NOT the healthy.
#3 Reason. The creator of the mRNA vaccine has serious doubts about the vaccine. Dr. Robert Malone, stellar reputation, has serious doubts about how corners were cut in the creation of these vaccines. Serious concerns. He does not recommend the healthy getting the vaccine (see reason #2). I’ve added a very recent video of him discussing the vaccine with the WHO (see below). For those believing that he was not the inventor — this is false news. There were others who contributed to the technology but he is legit and those who discount his work and expertise are spreading falsities.
#4. Morbidity has dropped to record lows. This is factual — in almost all countries the death rate has dropped to new all-time lows. There is no “emergency” despite the media focus on cases as the bar stick. Yes, there will be many cases, young, healthy people WILL get COVID but only .1% will ever need hospitalization.
#5. The vaccine effectiveness is getting lower and lower. What is the next thing, 3 jabs, 4 jabs? Canada recently bought 35 million more doses — in preparation to the vaccine not being enough to keep people “safe”. Now we have people arguing that it wasn’t intended for the vaccine to complete protect you — just to boost your immunity. Really? What’s next? The Omega variant?
An Explanation And Commentary Of My Reasons For NOT Getting The Vaccine.
I’m really astounded by the fact that so many who believe in “natural” health, who spend millions on organic avocados and body cleanses have rushed to get the jab. I’m perplexed. My only explanation is herding — the cultural fundamental of how with fear applied, people will en masse through this fear reflex, rush to alleviate this fear. I also don’t underestimate the fact that there are other social factors at play. But why is there no talk about our natural immunity, NO TESTS (antibody) available to the public to show individuals they do have a natural immune response to COVID 19. Michael Yeadon, former chief scientist for Pfizer talks about this and also the hyperbole of “variants” in this video lecture.
As someone who is a student of history and especially eugenics and the misuse of science in human health (see Stephen Gould’s, The Mismeasure Of Man), I am reticent to see medical procedures, drugs, injections applied to large populations. There are many, many horrible and even historically recent tragedies of unparalleled horror applied by “the medical science of certainty”. May I just write one word — Thalidomide. Also, read and think of this forced vaccination that went arye. There is a reason that we need to look long-term, on human populations, the results of the COVID 19 vaccine. “Maybe effective” as the FDA has labeled the vaccine is not enough. When the vaccine has been trialed over years, on diverse populations and with rigor and by impartial 3rd parties (why are we trusting the same companies producing the vaccine to provide test and trial results????) — then I will take THAT vaccine. Dr. Charles Hoffe in this discussion outlines more serious concerns about the vaccine, especially long-term and wonders why appropriate safeguards aren’t followed.
As an educator the past 30 years, primary has been my safety for my students. It’s the unwritten and unspoken “Hippocratic” oath of education. Yet, many are mandating school-aged children be vaccinated despite the risk posed by a vaccine which has yet been fully trialed and tested according to proper medical protocols. I have to protest this. Maybe the vaccine is fine — but should we risk this until absolutely sure? No. Again, protect the old, the vulnerable and focus our energy there.
I believe that if you don’t take the vaccine — you aren’t a wacko, idealogical anti-vaxxer. I’m really concerned with the hardening attitude of many that those who want to have a vaccine passport and also mandatory vaccination. This is just against the world I want to live in. My body, I decide what goes into it. Sex tools, food, drugs, needles, anything. Have we not learned from history? It, this ability to say NO, is a fundamental right of human beings as declared in the rights of man. Read the Universal Declaration Of Human Rights (or even the original of 1787). Especially relevant is the concept of informed consent addressed through the Nuremberg Code. This code has been adopted as part of medical ethics. Wise men at that time, that trial.
Many may say there is a lot of misinformation out there about vaccines. Sure, I agree. The vitriol and explosion of social media experts is a crazy trend. But conversely, there is a lot of misinformation about the problems with the vaccine and the efficacy of natural immunity.
I also don’t understand how society has evolved to see a pill, a drug, bold “SCIENCE” as a be all and end all and absolute and final solution to everything. I need to write a book about this but it is much of this that is in operation, this ideology is pervasive but not true, slow-moving, careful plodding small “s” science. It is scientism.
You may not agree with me. Fine, I’ll end by restating that. But it also should work the other way around. Respect my decision. Sure, if millions were dropping dead on the street (like the real plague)— I’d do and would take anything. But this is not the case. 95% of all deaths are those over 74 years of age. I’m not some wacko kook. I’m not a conspiracy theorist or “way out there” new age fundamentalist. I’m like you, a citizen, a man with the ability to judge and act and with valid reasons for not getting vaccinated.
So in ending, I’m not a danger to the world, my very existence, if I don’t take the vaccine. Neither are you if you take it. But let’s live in a spirit of brotherhood and togetherness — not totalitarian dehumanization of others.
This doctor has much the same opinion as me and eloquently outlines why he isn’t submitting to a mandatory vaccination.
