We should expect more of our adults and kids. They should research and not put complete trust in leaders who tell them to get a shot for their own good. 

Many vaccines over the decades have proven to be effective. That does not mean that all vaccines, or shots being called vaccines, are effective.

Let’s all take some responsibility to learn and question things before we follow along. 

 do i have to get on my soap box here? 

 Not sure. I think you and I both believe in the importance of vaccines in general. I’m grateful for them. This specific post was pointing out the dangers with a shot that claimed to be a vaccine but likely didn’t fit the definition and came with unstudied risks. 

 from a clinical research perspective, i was impressed at how quickly all of the companies stepped up to the challenge on a "modern pandemic"

all of clinical research resources were sucked into this, and they came up with a vaccine quickly

could you imagine what could have happened if the globe had three times the population it has now?
