For me, it’s very simple. I’ve been as close as one can get to another person for an extended period of time (>10 days of my Covid positive gf sneezing and slobbering all over me, while in the same bed) and I couldn’t get it. I’ve actually tried to get it from someone who was positive, couldn’t do it. Still, to this day, I don’t have the antibodies, nor have ever been positive.

Why should I get the shot? What benefit does it do for me, or for anybody else? Basically, I would be getting a shot to alleviate random societal “concerns” of something that can’t possibly happen.

Bottom line wrt the Vaccine:

1) There is no benefit to me.

2) There is no benefit to anyone else either for me to get the vaccine.

3) I’ve been in constant comms with my PCM and she repeats two things to me all the time. They are:

a). “Some people can’t get it, nor pass it to others.”

b). “I don’t know the answers to any of your direct questions.”

For me personally, I have zero skepticism wrt the vaccine. I consider it to be invaluable to the elderly or those with autoimmune disorders. But, otherwise healthy folks? Until someone can answer the many, MANY questions I have, there just isn’t a reason for healthy folks like me to get the vaccine.

Full disclosure. I’m the youngest of five children, and they’re all over the age of 55 and my gf has lupus, but already has the antibodies. I’ve recommended that they all get the vaccination if their age or medical history dictates a need, and their Primary Care doc says it’s a must. And they ALL have.

I however have zero intent to get it, and I get monthly calls from the VA trying to schedule it for me. I ignore them, 100%.

To each their own, srsly, get it if you need it. If not, I’ll still shake your hand and get close to you as if nothing has ever happened.
