Yes. Because they don't trust the vaccinations and won't accept the risk of side effects to their body. Because if those side effects hit them, there is no help to get anywhere.
There isn't even a way to prove that a random symptom that occurs in your body may be from a vaccine. There is absolutely no way to know where it came from.
Yes there is, sweetie. It's this thing called science.
What side effects are you describing? Specific ones?
Living to old age.
As someone experiencing that right now, I can tell you there are some rough patches.
This.
As a parent myself it's quite the dilemma :
Fuck life is hard
As a parent, the bit dilema i face is different diagnostics by different doctors, or different treatments for the same one.
The dilemma I don't have is about vaccinations. They all agree vaccination is the right thing to do following the official schedule.
Lol, minor side effects like fever. :)
I wish, man. That would be amazing.
By all means, please list the supposed side effects. Are the side effects in the room with you right now?
Wish granted, kiddo.
I think you forgot the /s
That was kind of you to grant them an exit from the ratio-destroyed ignorance expressed in their comment. I'll be using this line - thank you.
I'm sure you are not alone thinking this. :)
