18 Reasons I Won't Be Getting a Covid Vaccine

Interesting. (I did not click on all the links the author referenced, have not fact checked it...)

As time goes on, this issue seems to be more polarizing than even voting in the past election was!

Maybe it's just because of where I live or who I know, I'm not sure?

My sense is that in these times, we must extend tremendous amounts of grace and mercy to all of those around us, regardless of where anyone lands on matters of personal conscience. An error that I often made when I was younger in the faith (and I can still fall into this at times sadly) is forcing my opinions and convictions on others in a judgmental way.

May we be marked by love in this hour on earth dear saints (while remaining steadfast in the Truth)!

Brother Caleb,
Thanks for sharing, I hadn’t seen allot of this and while the corruption involved is obvious the work put into this research article is eye opening 🙏🏻but I wonder why someone in whom the eternal, indestructible life of Christ is present and the blood of the same cleanses them as they walk in the light... why would they need a vaccine to preserve a life they already "died” to ? ...🤔

May we seek and walk in the light of Christ 😇

Imagine, if you will, a vaccine so safe you have to be threatened to take it, for a disease so deadly, you have to be tested to know if you have it. To save myself from any debates or arguments among friends and family, I don't disclose if I've had the shot or not, personally I feel this is my personal best policy, keeps down the strife level in my life.

I don’t know if the current administration, Dr. Fauci, and Bill Gates understand what they are doing or not with the lock downs and vaccinations, but this has the enemies foot prints all over it.

Do you reject all medical treatment?

There have been smallpox vaccines, MMR vaccines, polio vaccines, flu vaccines etc but all of sudden Covid vaccines are the work of the devil.

THose who reject all kinds of vaccines are safe today because the people around them have taken vaccines so as to prevent the disease virus from reaching them. So to produce herd immunity the country does not require everyone to take vaccines, but only most of them who are sensible take the vaccine then it is good enough.

Wow Sree that sounds like loving your neighbor. What a concept!

How are you loving your neighbor by taking the vaccine if even the vaccine manufactures claim the vaccine does nothing to stop the transmission? It simply is claimed to reduce symptoms, but even that seems to have little credible data, at least according to the link.

There are reasons, strong or weak, more or less factual, on which to decide to get or not get a COVID vaccination. I chose to. What we mustn’t do is turn the choice into a matter of either conservative, Bible-believing right practice vs leftist, statist unbelieving lock-stepping. It just isn’t debatable on those particular fields of battle any more than driving with or without a motorcycle helmet is.

Whatever you choose, God bless you. You are free in America to follow that dictate of your own conscience for now. You should pray for all of us to have at least your wisdom and to pursue Christ while the world destroys over all these things.

No

Injuries can and do occur and that’s why we have doctors, praise God 🙏🏻
You know, the type of doctor that Luke was when he tended to Paul...

The Bible makes a clear, decisive, immutable provision for sickness and disease on both a personal and corporate level. Personally it comes from discernment of the Lord’s body in communion - 1 Cor 11

Corporately it’s in anointing, faith, prayer, confession and
turning from error- James 5 [the act of the body restoring a member, a spiritual auto-immune system]

Honestly it’s compulsory or was until we (the body) abandoned discipleship/priestcraft. Now everything is outsourced... fathers don’t generally realize their own position in the body well enough as the priest of their own house to disciple their families and so that function is outsourced to the "church” which at best is supplemental. So there is an example of a fundamental breakdown of "discerning the body” where Paul says the result of which is many are sick, infirmed and die early -

Not all but most people getting the vaccine (if they’re honest) are doing so to live longer to "enjoy this world” and not to better "seek the kingdom” and that’s something they’re gonna have to take up with the Lord sooner or later... which is why my prayer is for mercy and discernment for all 🙏🏻

My observation is, most people who took the vaccine in the earlier phase did with fear. Fear of death. I say this because I saw the panic in people when the vaccines were made available. I followed what public felt in discussion apps like neighborhood. Most of them were panicing without any hope as if the vaccines are their savior. Most of them are elderly.

Any anxiety including the fear of death is a sin. A Christian who takes vaccines in the fear of death is still not secure in God's love.

I waited till all these anxious people get their vaccines. I believe we are now in a phase were all panic vaccinations are done. The place where I live, one can walkin and get vaccination done.

Not only fear of death but also out of love for their families and wanting to visit. My older parents were never overly fearful about Covid, but me and my brother and sister and our kids were very worried about infecting them. After all if we got Covid we probably wouldn’t die but they might die due to their age and some other health issues. So no one wanted to visit them in person out of fear of infecting them. But the vaccine alleviates that fear. My sister and her husband visited them last month and we are all getting together to celebrate my dad’s 80th bday in June. We will all be vaccinated including grandkids so we can breathe easier.

Not to be the bearer of bad news but,... you do know that the "vaccine” doesn’t prevent transmission ?

In any case, I will lift your dad in prayer and join you in celebrating his 80th birthday 🎂 that is indeed a joyous occasion:))

While it is not possible to theoretically prove that vaccines will prevent transmission, looking into our human history, many deadly viruses are curtained using vaccines like Polio for example.

I think how it works is, the more people are immune to the virus, the lesser is their chance of being a carrier.

I am not a medical expert. I am just telling my observation.

Sree, the available covid vaccines are not comparable to traditional vaccines, they are very different.

The brothers reasons were great, informative and well researched. Kudos to you, sir! Thank you so much.

I will not join the discussion or the debate at the moment, just adding some news from Denmark:

Denmark permanently turns back on AstraZeneca ”“ vaccine banned over 'serious side effects'
DENMARK has said it will completely stop using the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine as part of its Covid jab rollout.
By Katie Harris PUBLISHED: 13:40, Wed, Apr 14, 2021 | UPDATED: 21:08, Wed, Apr 14, 2021 (just search for the article )
"Denmark and Norway had maintained the pause to examine the vaccine further. But now the authorities in Denmark have decided that there's enough evidence to permanently suspend the vaccine in their country."

If I love my neighbors I share this news with them - to keep them safe !

I am fully vaccinated against COVID for ethical reasons. As of now there is no conclusive evidence yet about the effectiveness of Covid vaccines, only relative efficacy against certain epidemiologic and clinical conditions of Covid.

Efficacy is a predictive mathematical description of a relative risk reduction. Vaccine trial results (from different vaccines manufacturers) with the same numerical values can not be interpreted as having equivalent efficacy. One has to to know the specifics of the research or trial design.

Many vaccines are clearly effective and safe, having been with us for decades now. I have received many doses as a requirement for schooling and work. Like other things in life, they can be used for evil purposes.

In my own case, I cannot find any compelling reason why I should refuse to participate in covid19 vaccination or be contentious about it, though I have reminded people that it is not a foolproof protection.

This discussion is locked.
