A week or 2 ago I read the results of a study about how to motivate conservatives to get the vaccine. The study found that conservatives didn’t not respond well to scare tactics, they became more resistant to the vaccine. They responded more favorably to the positives such as vaccinated people being able to live normal lives again or that restrictions will be lifted with more vaccinated people.

What I read didn’t say what motivated the libs but one could infer that the opposite does. Since most public health people lean left they assumed scare tactics are the best way to motivate people.

This pretty much sums up left vs right on most issues. Guns, climate, healthcare, social programs, etc.

It's because most on the left allow emotion to guide their decisions instead of relying on facts or principles. That makes them susceptible to being targets for information designed to elicit an emotional response. Conservatives people often see such attempts of emotional manipulation as a huge red flag and causes them to question the motives of the individual and truth of the information. The left really are educated idiots.

My wife just made a good point. Has anybodys doctor or healthcare provider got a hold of you and recommend that you get the vaccine? No card in the mail. No emails no nothing. Why are fucking politicians and not healthcare professionals pushing it?
my doctor advised my wife and I to not get the vaccine for two reasons. 1. this has not been approved by the FDA, so, all joking aside, this is still an experiment being done on a global scale, and 2. We've had covid, therefore already have equal or better resistance to the virus than vaccine would provide. also told me that getting the vaccine would likely make me sick as hell since I've already had it.

I find that hard to swallow. I've had covid & also the vaccine. I also work in a hospital where many of us had it & the vaccine. Nobody got sick from the vaccine like u were led to believe. Get another doctor.

From everything I've read it seems to be a 50/50 shot and up to the individuals' immune system reaction. The reason people feel ill after the 2nd shot is because their immune system has an immune profile and can quickly put up an immune response. The majority of symptoms such as fever, fatigue, body aches are due to the immune response. It would make sense then that if a person already had covid, and their body possessed an immune blueprint, that their symptoms after the first shot could be elevated over a person who has not been vaccinated.

If a person has already had TB they cannot take a TB test. (The little injection under the skin to watch for a reaction.) That is because while they may not have TB currently they will still show an immune response to the test. Same principle.

I think I’ll keep my doctor. She only confirmed what I had already decided for myself, anyway. Maybe she said “could” make me ill. Immaterial. The fact of the matter is I don’t need or want this vaccine and my doctor concurs. And for the record, suffering some ill effect from getting this vaccine is the very last thing that concerns me about it.

Change my mind.
