We'll see. I don't mind being sick for a little, but my daughter has a meet tomorrow, so I hope it doesn't knock me flat!Just saw your post— I hope mine doesn’t scare you!My husband didn’t have it quite so badly.
The day after the vax I was EXHAUSTED. Once I had to drag myself out of bed to get my daughter ready for her meet, and got moving, and ate a meal, and took some Tylenol, I felt fine, but doing it was HARD. By evening only a mild headache, and by the next day pretty much back to normal. We all feel a little more secure now. I know it's also some anxiety relief for my daughter, because after losing her father, she worries a lot about something happening to me and Covid made her worried.We'll see. I don't mind being sick for a little, but my daughter has a meet tomorrow, so I hope it doesn't knock me flat!
I don’t want to debate either. And I respect everyon’s right not to vax. And when someone makes claims about injuries, cases, spread/infection rates they should be more then happy to cite their sources. With the numerous injury's just in the trials, and the fact that the vaccine doesn't even prevent you from getting the virus, it only reduces symptoms, it is not at all necessary for us.
Please state your source for this. We respect everyone right to get or refuse the vaccine but we do not allow inaccurate information. We also do not allow arguments. There are many many places for the this debate a gymnastics forum is not one of them.No vaccine for my family for now, it is not necessary as we are all healthy and most of us have gotten covid already anyway. With the numerous injury's just in the trials, and the fact that the vaccine doesn't even prevent you from getting the virus, it only reduces symptoms, it is not at all necessary for us. When we got the virus (even my 70 year old grandparents) it was just like a cold. For us, it just is not worth it whatsoever.

Oh Ok I thought you had actual data tied directly to the vaccine. And actual reliable scientific evidence.![]()
Government Database Shows 7,844 Injuries and 181 Deaths Following COVID Vaccine as of Jan. 15 says Children's Health Defense
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The primary mechanism for reporting adverse vaccine reactions in the U.S., the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), reported 181 deaths -- a subsetwww.chinookobserver.com
That is just one of numerous if you want a source, but I get most of my information from "The Highwire" by Del Bigtree, but those are videos so will not put the link here. Again, as I said, for us, as in my family, it is just not necessary. I just stated my point of view and what my personal experience is, not trying to argue at all. Respective of the fact that only 1% of vaccine injurys are reported, my family would rather not take the risk but that is our opinion. You are free to have yours.
This a billion timesI hope this does not go beyond the boundaries of the rules, but ProudGymnast, your source is not reliable. I can't let this stand because it is not the truth.
1. The database cited involves self-reported injuries. A self-reported injury has not been validated as having anything to do with the vaccine.
2. The claim that only 1% of vaccine injuries are reported is made up out of thin air and I have never seen any properly peer-reviewed study that would support such a claim.
3. Robert Kennedy is a known purveyor of untruths about vaccines.
Link Removed is an explanation of how safety is evaluated and monitored in the US for a vaccine granted emergency authorization.
This is an explanation of how vaccines are tested in stages before being approved for general use.
The US does need to update its patchwork reporting system, which is messy, state-based, and relies too heavily on self reports. However, since the beginning of mass vaccine administration, not a single death has been conclusively linked to either Pfizer or Moderna, and the most serious reactions (anaphylaxis) have been at very low rates.
If you don't want to get the vaccine, don't get the vaccine. If you choose to believe individual unvalidated reports of danger and injuries, that is a choice you may make. But if you promote incorrect information and outright lies, do not expect that to go unchallenged.

Honestly, you asked for an article and that is what I found. That is NOT where I get my information, as I said I get it from Del Bigtree's "The Highwire" because I have found that he has accurate information, from study's that are made by reliable sources. I did not feel the need to send a link to a video because you would have to dig through them to find the segments about vaccines.I hope this does not go beyond the boundaries of the rules, but ProudGymnast, your source is not reliable.

Instead of saying "this is our opinion", I will say "This is our truth," because my family will not be getting a vaccine for covid, especially not until studies of long term effects come out. You can get the vaccine if you feel its best for you, thats the thought I was trying to convey.This needs to be broken down and addressed:
"Opinion" is not a magic word that absolves you of responsibility or shields you from criticism; furthermore, you seem to be attempting some sleight-of-hand here that I'm gonna have to call out.
This is a statement of opinion (or close enough, anyway). It isn't objectively true or false. (Note that not all opinions are equally valid and I think this is a flawed and dangerous opinion, but I won't get into that right now)
This is not a statement of opinion. This is a statement of (alleged) fact; either it is objectively true or it is objectively false. In this case, I'd put my money on it being false, unless you can provide a solid reputable source to corroborate it.
To get back to those things and more!It relates to getting back to ”normal”. Real meets, hugs and high fives after sticking a landing, going out with gymmie friends to celebrate.

If you want my sources I happily provide though.
If you have other, more reliable sources, I would love to see them. I do a lot of reading on vaccines, so love more. However, a noted anti-vaccination site and sources are not going to be reliable and unbiased on the subject of vaccines. Do you have others than the 2 you have shared?
Me too, I like being informed on things that I am putting in my body. And yes, I agree, on usual terms a site that is extreme one way is not going to be reliable, however this is a collection of weekly videos that re-quote studys and even Fauci himself. They don't conduct the studys or make up information, they just gather the information for you to have in all one place. I like to balance out my research so I read the CDC's website to, and I have found "The Highwire" as my most reliable, not contradictory source because they just gather the information from reliable sources.If you have other, more reliable sources, I would love to see them. I do a lot of reading on vaccines, so love more. HOwever, a noted anti-vaccination site is not going to be reliable and unbiased on the subject of vaccines. Do you have others than the 2 you have shared? Both of those are written by noted anti-vaccination sources.
