I lived in new york at the time and I fully regret getting the vaccine. I still got covid with full symptoms.

Given that you’ll never know what might’ve happened without the vaccine, how can you regret it?

It’s wild how different experiences can be. I’ve had five vaccinations for Covid (two initial, three boosters) and my antibody tests at every annual physical show I’ve never gotten it.

Do you mask in public? I had a friend who got the updated vaccine in August and then went on a plane trip two weeks later but didn't wear a mask. He came down with Covid which laid him out for several days. The vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting it.

I did during the pandemic, but stopped when most pandemic restrictions were lifted. I have been directly exposed for up to a week at a time with people who were confirmed to have had it (partner, emergency dept visit, etc). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I was fully on board for the vaccine initially, but I've had nearly life-threatening gut issues a few times and now have to deal with all kinds of cardiovascular issues.

It's manageable and not long covid but my doctor said he's never seen this in someone my age (late 20s).

The lack of safety info / bad info provided to sway people like me who used it to do basic risk calculus is beyond criminal.

It's manageable and not long covid but my doctor said he's never seen this in someone my age (late 20s).

So you took the vaccine and it ruined your gut and your cardiovascular system? It's proven to be related to the vaccine ?

Its possible (although as yet unproven) that exposure to pollutants stops vaccines working properly e:g google "PFAS vaccine efficacy".
