    Here’s what I do. I have my kids injected with weakened or dead pathogens. Sometimes I can I can just have them injected with a molecule that looks like a pathogen.

    Vaccines or not, kids getting sick all the time is what they do. It’s also beneficial in the long run.

      Ya, but it stops like at 3 yo.

      But you don’t want your kids getting one of the diseases you vaccinate for, as they sometimes kill or maim for life.

      These people also sound like the types to get right into other people’s faces at the grocery stores to excitedly tell everyone how healthy they are by not getting vacced.

      Or giving them Long Covid at some point. There is a chance of getting it with each new infection, much larger when not vaccinated. And each infection can also shave off a few IQ points.

        I have long COVID. It’s hell. It’s like I’ve had chronic fatigue and some sort of.neuroloigcal damage for the past two years. But it is ever slowly improving and I’d guess I’m about 80% back to normal. I cannot wait to be back in full swing.

          Been like that myself for 2 years, never tested positive for COVID, but I’m really wondering.

            Well I had no symptoms. My partner was super sick and I had them test. Thought I would as well after they were positive, and I was too. I’d been on the mountain snowboarding all day and was all pumped and planning tomorrow, I felt excellent.

            It was about a week later, my tinnitus would be incredibly loud at times. Every 30s or so, I’d get this weird palpitation sensation at the back of my skull, coupled with dizziness or pain in the head. Brain started just not working and I’d give up on thoughts. Then the fatigue hit and some days Id sleep up to 14 hrs when I usually sleep 6.5-7.5.

            But still, not a single cough, sore throat, nothing. It was all in my skull and I could feel it in there.

    Rub some butter on their feet and have them carry a wrinkled potato around with them. Guaranteed to keep the flu away. For a cough, it’s potatoes on the feet and butter in the hands.

      Don’t forget to massage in a nice herb rub at bed time, then wrap them in foil before covering them in the electric blanket for 20 minutes at 350° to really seal in the flavor.

    At least they acknowledge that COVID and the flu are real and not a hoax. That’s usually easier to work with.
