Now that some time has passed we can look at the anti-vax debate with less polarization and more nuance. It has been an eye-opening experience for me to attempt some objectivity here. At first I was a 'good citizen', took the vaccine doses, and I found it hard to appreciate the perspectives of the anti vaxers: they seemed hysterical, and so much conspiracy theory, with dodgy links to the far right. But some people did die from vaccine doses. Many countries withdrew the AstraZeneca vaccine due to safety and efficacy concerns. My brother had one dose of this and believes it almost killed him with blood clots in his brain. I myself have had effects in my heart (I was on Moderna vax). Then there are the concerns about government and big pharma disinformation, and the extraordinary amounts of profit being made. Formerly I would have dismissed the parent comment but now I'm open minded. My beliefs now have shifted somewhat to be undecided, certainly a lot more sceptical about the vaccines. In such a morass of disinformation we have to work out our own truths. For me, I believe on the balance of probability, and relating to my own experience, it's more likely that my heart issues were caused by COVID rather than the vaccine. But I also decided to not get the booster jabs.

We have a winner.
Edit: on second glance, you must be just taking the piss. Bravo.
