@LaughterintheRain Good point. @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @h53pilot @Andre
@pamby1 @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @h53pilot @Andre I was a kid in the 70s, and most of us missed 2 weeks due to chicken pox, mumps and measles over the course of grades 1 thru 5.
@conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @h53pilot @Andre Me too. I got chicken pox @ 5, before I started school.
My VA doctor keeps trying to talk me into the shingles vaccine. Nope.
Anyone else get that talking to?
@conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre My dr has never mentioned that. I did get a tetanus shot about 2-3 yrs ago. Is shingles pretty common?
To hear them talk it is pretty common. Never known anyone with shingles, though. If you've had chickenpox, then you can get shingles.
Anyone else (as in not from a doctor) know how common shingles is?
@conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@h53pilot
I'm pretty cautious about vaccines in general. But soon after I turned 50, I had my butt down to the Walgreens. Shingles gets much worse as you age. If you get the illness in your 50's, say, it's not too bad. I had a neighbor who got it in his 70's and it really screwed him up for a long while. *Very* painful and you can risk your sight if the rash gets near an eye, which it often does.
@pamby1 @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@h53pilot
And, yes, I think it's common in the elders and those with weakened immunity. So, if you get one disease bc of weakened immunity, shingles can add insult to injury. Double whammy.
@pamby1 @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
I even question the tetanus shot. Anyone ever hear of someone getting tetanus?
I've never seen anyone's jaws lock up on them.
@conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@h53pilot Come to think of it, me neither.
@conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@pamby1 @h53pilot @conservativechris @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
I wouldn't play with tetanus. Good you got the shot.
I've had the tetanus shot, but never known or heard of a person with lock jaw.
@pamby1 @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@SweetIceTea @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre I think it might be an old wive's tale. Like, no new shoes on the table.
@SweetIceTea @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre Or don't roll your eyes or cross your eyes ir they'll get stuck like that.
I had to look that one up.

I took a chunk of wire fence to the face and had to look into this. I bring a solid dose of skepticism, but it really did look like waiting for the bacterial infection to present put you in 20% death scenario, even with competent hospital care (and good luck finding that at this point). It's a vaccine with a long and solid safety record, so I went with it.
@vandys @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre The older ones, with like you said a long track record?, I have no problem with either. We don't have to take any but tetanus because the rest are pretty much gone.
@h53pilot @pamby1 @conservativechris @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
I had one about 40 years ago, cut meself on a rusty handsaw. Made me nausus for awhile, but they told me that.
@h53pilot @pamby1 @conservativechris @SweetIceTea @Phil @Bleukitty
I feel differently about vaccines for bacteria vs those for viruses.
@h53pilot @pamby1 @conservativechris @SweetIceTea @Bleukitty @Andre my grandmother almost died from it.
@Phil @h53pilot @pamby1 @conservativechris @SweetIceTea @Bleukitty @Andre
I am allergic to tetanus in all forms and almost died the last time I received the shot in1966.
Since then I have stepped on nails, lacerated fingers, slashed lower legs and had a couple bar room brawls where my head was split by a beer mug (not proud of it) in some very questionable locations.
Never have I had an ill effect but I did have to walk out of many Dr. offices because they wouldn't stop about the shot.
@pamby1
my dr asked me about shingles shot, too! i said, "no, thank you." he said, "but you could get shingles again." then i said, "that's okay. i"ll take my chances."
don't jab me, bro!

Girl, yes! And especially since there have been all those "mistakes" at Walgreens when people sign up for other shots, and somehow end up getting the covid jab!
If these were normal times -the parents who took their children to get the flu shot and instead the drug store gave the children adult Covid-19 shots- those parents should have won ownership of the drugstore chain in a court of law.

@SweetIceTea @watson @pamby1 @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre @MMA
I'm still trying to understand the mentality of giving a child a flu shot, myself.
I'm with you there.
Did you see the chart that @pamby1 posted about vaccines children receive? So many of them are year, after year of getting the flu shot.

I think that's why my youngest is autistic. It hurts me and I start crying so I'm trying not to think about it too much right now.
Lord have Mercy, MMA.
I'm sorry about that.
@pamby1 @watson @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre
@MMA God Bless you MMA. I pray that your pain is relieved by our heavenly Father. Many prayers for your son. @SweetIceTea @pamby1 @watson @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Bleukitty @Andre

Thank you honey. I have felt guilty for years that I did something to him because I had a totally normal pregnancy and delivery but then his development started slowing. Its easy to blame the mom and say she didn't do something right.
At the time I was being abused by my ex; was upset that I was pregnant. I planned to leave him now that my oldest were school age so I could work to support us- but knew I couldn't with a baby.
I was told my negative emotions affected the baby.
@MMA my oldest son us autistic. He's 31, lives with me. I always feel like I have to explain him to people, because he looks normal. He was born in 90, so he didn't get as many shots as they're doing now, but still too many. And who knows how many it takes to make a difference?
2 of 4 grandsons are on the spectrum and my daughter was super selective and refused several of the shots. But the last one to get one quit breathing immediately post jab. They're not getting ANY more.
@MMA I'm sorry about your son.

I KNOW that's why my 4th son has autism!! There is NO ONE who will EVER convince me otherwise! You do NOT get born just fine till you are 15 months old and then all of a sudden the very day you get the MMR or whatever jab become autistic & "experts" tell you "that's just when autism presents itself". NO FKG WAY! SOMETHING HAS TO HAPPEN TO CAUSE IT! (regressive autism)

I ran a support group for 3+ yrs and 50% there had same scenario.
I'm not anti vax. I'm selective vax and they need separated and spread out! Many are unnecessary and kids are given way too many! IMO!
My DILs listened and held off vaxxes and only took one at a time. However, much to my horror , our beautiful one grandson got autism from his vax as well. Suspect TDAP.

One time when I was digging I found an article that said in the govt study that TDAP caused autism on page 71 of their report SO THE EVIL GOVT REMOVED THAT PAGE AND ADJUSTED THE PAGE NUMBERS. I wish so bad I had printed that out because I cannot find it anymore. Scrubbed! Like so many things. Govt is evil! Joined a class action lawsuit but govt got out of it.

Said no findings of autism from vaccines. Fuk too! I HAVE THE EVIDENCE RIGHT HERE IN MY DAMN HOUSE! A SON WITH A LIFE SENTENCE!
Yes, I have 5 sons. All had all the same shots, but you never know whom it is going to damage or not damage 4 fine, 1 not. Why risk it.
Same with this WuXiFlu vax. For me, it's a NO! Risky! Too much hard evidence it can harm.

I wouldn't trade my son for the whole world, but I'd trade his autism in a heartbeat! He also has extreme epilepsy on top, developed at age 16. It showed itself while we were on a vacation. It was horrific!

He is a blessing. The sweetest, most honest, most agreeable, sweet person. He will always have to live with us. We love having him here! One of his brothers will care for him when we are no longer here. Should not happen! It is evil for $ and power. They will all rot in hell! I revel in that.

@Bleukitty Thanks. Fought hard for him! Were some big jerks in our school system!
Long story short, they shipped ALL special needs kids to worthless county classrooms. Pioneer here! I stood strong! Prevailed!
He's come a million miles. I'd do it all again! Don't let ANYONE, no matter who it is, EVER make you back down from what you know is right! I wasn't nasty, but I was firm & unyielding!
@MMA @SweetIceTea @pamby1 @watson @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Andre
I fought for my son as well (not autistic) gifted. This was in the early 80's and the offer of accelerated programs for elementary schools wasn't common. Got him in one, at least two times a week and made a world of difference!
@MMA @SweetIceTea @pamby1 @watson @h53pilot @conservativechris @LaughterintheRain @Phil @Andre
@Bleukitty Fantastic! They think OUR kids are their kids and that they can make decisions and we have nothing to say about it, WRONG! Good for you and most especially good for your son!

We fought for my hubby's son as well. That meeting which included his Ex got really ugly. They wanted him classified as ADHD, he did NOT have ADHD! Since they could not convince my hubby, they tried to turn him and his Ex against each other. Bottom line they lost and created an enemy - me.

@KarePatriot Truly evil stuff in this world. We are seeing it more and more each day. At least the human spirit of kindness is also visible like here on FA and in places least expected. We just need to be sure to see it. We cannot let our joy be stolen. Love & hugs to you & your sweet boy, Kare.
@ConnieinVA Thank you, Connie! These things do grind away on us sometimes but I try hard to mostly stay positive and focus on the good (I faulter ). There is a lot of good too. These are strange and some of the most difficult times. I always hold out hope! Never give up!
@KarePatriot There is no rest for the weary that’s for sure but we fight on knowing in the end GOD prevails. There is no hiding or covering up that fact. GOD wins.
Oh Kar, I’m so sorry about your son. These evil mfers must pay and pay with their lives. It’s only fair after so many were murdered and maimed.
