    I'll wait for proper testing to happen before I take the vaccine. If I take it.

    Now one off the newest data/talking points is that family members are giving it to each at home. Here in New York, Gov. (Il DUCE) Cuomo, wants social distancing AND masks while in the home with other family members. People are putting pictures of the Gov. "peeking" in their windows. Humor is a good stress reliever.

    Another way to "flatten the curve" is to stop testing altogether. What's the point of testing if there isn't any "real" treatment. If you are positive , you're told to go home and isolate. Yeah, try that with any number of young kids running amok. Then, only go to the E.R. if symptoms worsen.

    Then there is the expense. I understand that it's about 80 dollars per test. If you have to have frequent testings, who pays for that? Out-of-pocket expenses can sky rocket and a person will be in a bigger hole than they are most likely in already.

    Over here no such thing. If you tested positive, the whole household is asked to go into quarantine. As numbers skyrocket, it appears nobody gives a shit and they still go out to the stores, parks etc. Police are on patrol on new years eve to check wheter or not there are 10 people in one house. 10 or more is definitely not allowed.

    I also read about an American young women, who was abroad to see her boyfriend compete in something. She was supposed to be quarantined in her hotel, and had electronic house arrest. She undid herself from the device and went out. Authorities discovered this and now she is sentenced to 2 months imprisonment for failing to obey the rules herself.

    These millenials don't think that rules and laws don't apply to them. But they raise bloody hell if you break them.

    I'm with some of the others in here. I'm a nurse, but i'm reluctant. It's far too early to know what kind of long-term results could emerge. I want to wait for long-term studies before getting mine. I'm all for vaccines, but I can't help but be worried about it being rushed

    At least not long term detrimental effects. Long term positive effects most likely will be tolerated well.

    She's fine now. Apparently she has an underlying health condition that causes her to faint when she experiences pain.

    Good thing that never happens to me. "Pain" or "fainting" is up to you to decide/interpret.

    What’s the worst that can happen? Getting Covid from the vaccine? Might as well take a chance from it

    Hangnails in the pit of the stomach, children born with the head of a Golden Retriever, possession by the Prince of Darkness, the sudden urge to vote Republican............I could go on.........

    Yes. It's a plot to take over the Republican Party.

    AOC already has stated that the names of ALL who voted Republican should be compiled for cocentration camps and all assets taken.

    I hadn't heard that but it sounds like a perfectly good idea!

    I wonder why they want all those broken down pickup trucks?
