For me personally I don't want to get it anymore because it's such new technology and I've heard it have such a negative impact on a lot of people and I don't trust it anymore. Sometimes it's better to get sick with it and move on. It's starting to die down anyways right?

This is a very dangerous thought please get the vaccine it can protect you and others. COVID has been around for year but COVID 19. Scientists and researchers have been working on a vaccine for COVID for years they just modified it for COVID-19. While people have been negatively impacted by the vaccine but most people are okay. The pandemic is not over and cases are rising again please be safe!

it may be better for you to get sick with it and move on, but a lot of people like me wouldnt move on at all, and the less vaccination the higher risk of it spreading to us. The world is full of new technology that sometimes hurts people but we dont bat an eye when a few phones explode. Please consider the people you could pass the disease onto that wouldnt recover as well.

I think whatever side effects from the vaccine are better than getting covid. When I got my first shot I was fine, second shot I was cold and slightly fatigued but a just took some naps and sat in the sun, third shot was hell frozen on earth I could not get warm, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't stop shaking. But it was all over soon. But from stats the likelihood of not recovering from covid seems high with the prevelance of long covid. So even if you recover somewhat, you might not recover completely, having a shortened breath or slight fatigue for the rest of your life. Thats my stake in it all anyway

I think there maybe be ways to take it, maybe explaining it to the nurse who gives it to you.
