Most Americans who haven’t gotten a vaccine say they don’t plan to

Well then lets replace the word guess, with the more appropriate word of Assume. You assume the vaccine is a given that its a resource from the Lord. You assume grossly over weight people are that way due to allowing it to happen to them. You assume they and unvaccinated people will have to stand before our Lord and give an explanation! A lot of assuming going on there.

It is obvious that you have made the meaning of my post into something which it is NOT, but you nonetheless WISH it to be.

You have yourself a nice day, maybe you'll find someone else's words to twist into none-sense.

Actually I do expect the Lord to bail me out of ANY harm, self inflicted or not. I have faith that the Lord can do anything, I am the weak one. What’s that verse the hey though you walk through the valley of death fear no evil cause I got your back verse.

IMO, the Lord our God, whichever one you believe in, has bailed out a lot of people and will continue to bail them out-“ask and you shall receive”.

OK, I said: "If you smoke, drink to excess and allow yourself to become grossly overweight, do you think or expect The Lord to bail you out of self inflicted harm? "

Since this thread is about health and not religion let me explain- here is what I meant: the lifestyle choices you make in life(smoking, drinking,eating) ARE going to affect your health, period.

**Off Topic** The Lord can not "bail" you out of the health consequences of your lifestyle, if you eat to excess you shall get fat, I don't care how much you tithe on Sunday morning.

The Lord will accept you into the Kingdom of Heaven, based on the merits of your faith and conduct in this life.

I hope this clarifies the matter for those confused. Myself- I'm done explaining.

Am curious what kind of side effects any of you experienced, if any or none, after getting the shot or two, and for how long they lasted....
I have not gotten the shot, to date......

There have been lots of postings about this. My husband and I both had both Moderna shots. We dealt with mild flu-like symptoms (fevers under 101, body aches and some fatigue) all of which were fairly easily dispatched with OTC meds. Our kids and kids-in-law have all had at least one vaccine, most have had both. Same types and levels of symptoms. Two had Moderna, four had Pfizer.

Hope that helps!

Possibly a lot of the people who, when surveyed, said they wouldn't get vaccinated, might go ahead and get it. I have one coworker who in December was adamant that she was not going to get it, but as soon as her age group was allowed she and her daughter stayed up half the night on their state's app to find a location they could get a reservation with. And another much younger coworker who hasn't cared to try to get one mentioned this week that he will need to get a shot. So, slowly, people seem to be less reluctant/anxious about getting vaccinated.

I know at least half a dozen people who were not going to get vaccinated. Like your coworkers, they changed their minds when the vaccines became available.

We have several employees at work that refuse to get it. It's their right. I just decided for myself personally I was gonna give it a go. If the shot killed me then so be it. If the shot keeps me from dying from COVID so be it. If I get COVID and die anyway...so be it. This is my lot in life. I can't control what's going to happen all I can do is get by the best I can. It's all any of us can do really.
