Already been exposed to COVID19, it had no effect on me.
Two of my house mates did get symptoms, mostly dry cough for a few weeks.
I'm one of those people that doesn't get vaccines for petty common diseases.
I'm also the only person I know that doesn't get sick, not even a runny nose or cough.
I still think it's hilarious how apocalyptic this bullshit has gotten...and it's barely just influenza+.
Even SARS had 2-3x the mortality rate. Wait until another real threat occurs, 25-75% mortality.
I'd take a vaccine for something like Ebola if it were spreading like COVID19.
No, I will not get the vaccine in the beginning. I will wait until you guys test it out and wait for more results before I consider it.
What many can't seem to grasp is that many illnesses may be communicable before symptoms appear. I would get one when it becomes available because I'm not an idiot; it appears that coronavirus has a mortality rate at least 10x higher than the annual flu - I'm not taking going to take that risk if there is a vaccine. Plus, there is the issue of sickness spreading, especially to vulnerable populations, when people don't vaccinate and then subsequently get sick.
As for the flu shot, on top of some of the same issues noted above, it's been shown year after year, the flu vaccine significantly reduces the risk of serious illness or death compared with being unvaccinated, even when the vaccine isn't a great match for the year.
Vaccines are some of the safest and most efficacious medicines that have ever been invented in all of human history. The only reason to not get one is if you have a contraindication, otherwise, get you're fucking vaccines.
It's not about the deadliness of the virus, in fact, transmissibility has an inverse relationship with deadliness. (i.e. virus that are super deadly kills their host before the host has a chance to spread much).
The eventual outcome with this particular virus, when given enough time horizon, is that most of the population will get it. The key is, even at just 1% death rate (that is 3.5 million people just for America), the hospital systems are simply not designed to handle this volume of patients in a short-period of time. This is why "flattening the curve" is super important by slowing down the rate of the spread so that the hospitals don't get overwhelmed, which will significantly increase the death rate.
Hopefully, by slowing down the rate of spread, we give the healthcare systems a chance provide proper care without having to buckle under pressure (i.e. Italy). It also provides more time for vaccine and drug development.
If you are healthy young person without underlying condition, it is not about you dying from it, but it is absolutely about how you help society by not being a super-spreader.
That "problem" is still not a good excuse to avoid the shot. It still provides some protection; obviously less in severely mismatched years.The problem with the flu shot is that there are so many strains of flu that the shot may not be very effective.
sorry, but most of what you posted is utter nonsense and not supported by the weight of scientific evidence.Vaccines for petty common diseases is what spreads them and makes them far worse.
Just like all the paranoid types who take meds for everything and use antibacterial everything.
All you're doing is breeding far deadlier and far stronger diseases that can't be treated.
Every year I see the same thing, everybody who gets the flu vaccine gets seriously ill.
Meanwhile my properly and naturally adjusted immune system takes care of the flu for me.
The only people who should take vaccines for petty diseases are the immunocompromised.
People should also learn basic manners and common sense and stop spreading their filth.
Also, learn how to deal with people who insist on spreading their filth.

Vaccines have nothing to do with transmission of a disease.
In fact it's all the people who take drugs and then think it's OK to spread their filth that cause issues.
See my post above.

Well ain't you special! But because you did get the flu shot your case was probably less severe and it didn't kill you...Last two years - got the flu shot, got the flu both years.
I still remember my eyebrows hurting last year. That was horrible.
Not an anti-vaxxer, but I don't get the flu shot either. Would I get a vaccination for the current "End of the world" virus? Maybe. I'm probably not too likely to catch it...but you just never know about the people you come into contact with in stores or restaurants...so...maybe.
