I'm a five year cardiac patient with two stents in my main coronary arteries and have had my shot and my booster. No problems.
This is good to hear (obviously) but I can't overlook the fact that I have friends that have had some serious complications such as strokes and blood clots after the vax. The surprising thing is when my one buddy went to his family doctor as a follow-up after he had a stroke, the doctor told him he's seen it before after the vax. In other words, it's not uncommon but doctors are afraid to speak up.
In addition, I know of young females who have gotten the vax which is mandatory for college and haven't had a menstrual cycle since May.
The side effects are real. My issue is that you can't mandate these things. My recently married daughter is unvaxed because she wants to have children and doesn't want any complications. She's done her homework and made her decision which I respect.
The government needs to be honest with the citizens. If there are possible adverse effects, let people know and let them make up their own minds. As it stands now, you can still catch Covid even after the vax and the booster so I'm not so sure the risk outweighs the reward at this point. And to mandate the vax for college kids is outrageous. Same for younger children. This has become completely politicized which is a damn shame and no one can be held accountable for any misconduct such as fudging the test results and numbers which Big Pharma has been known to do and I'd bet they've done it here as well.
