I showed up and they said it would be a moderna vaccine so I canceled. I have a friend that has been worrying about me and said she was so excited I was going to get the vaccine, then got pissed because I didn't. She has severe anxiety issues, I just wish she would not include me in those. She calmed down after a bit but based on her comment this morning in a text I think she is still upset with me. I have my reasons for not wanting moderna or pfizer and I am a fully functioning adult so I can make my own decisions. I am a control freak but I know other people's lives are off limits. My control issues revolve around how people I hire to do work act or how they do the job. I do sometimes tell my kids things but I know they are grown and any backlash I get from them I deserve.
I will make a new appointment Monday since the J&J is back after Friday. I believe this is corprorate war and we are the pawns.
remember the idea of "my body my choice" ?
not sure why this idea is so selective lately.
if your friend backs abortion rights, ask them why this is any different.
I have never got any reply to that question so far. (they just quit talking to me...)
edit:
also, if the vaccines work, then why does anyone care at all if someone skips it ?
I tell people that I prefer to take my chances with nature, a flu is likely not going to kill me, and if I am sick I stay home so I don't spread it. so why do they care so much ?
seems like the vaccine fanatics deal with it like some sort of religious talisman, and if one person fails to have it, the village will be destroyed by god
