Hank @jesfactsmon. You’re welcome! Everyone should think about all being reported. Let’s hope that all is being reported. Get as much truthful facts as possible before coming to a conclusion. I have always taken my time with my decisions to avoid regrets. I believe many people take information for granted. That is why we see so many fraudulent practices. If someone was trying to sell me a car that ran on water, would I just hand over the money? No, I would want to see the proof for myself first. We do the best we can. The coronavirus is a delicate subject because of so much uncertainty. Last night I stumbled onto new information to me. About a month ago it was said that no quarantine would be necessary for persons exposed to the coronavirus who either had the coronavirus illness( because of built immunity) within the last 90 days or who had the 2nd dose of the vaccine at least 2 weeks prior to the exposure. Now I hear that those people do not need to quarantine only if they have no symptoms of the illness. What a mess! I thought some people can have the illness but present no symptoms. So how can we be certain of any immunity? And this is what the experts are advising? For now I don’t want to take any unnecessary chances with my health because of those uncertainties. That is my choice because it will be me that suffers any consequences not my medical advisors. Nothing can be done. I understand no legal action can be taken for any fatalities or adverse effects. No one can be held accountable. So we have to do what we think is best for us and be happy with our decision. Hank, take your time with your decision to be certain it is the right one for you. It won’t be easy. It sounds like you have to make a great effort in order to get the vaccine. You may not want to miss that opportunity. I made my choice based on my risk for getting the illness verses getting the vaccine(s). Basically it is the matter of the effects of the illness verses the effects of the vaccine. What will our bodies be able to handle? It is an individual decision. My best to you. Toni

@avmcbellar, There is so much information "out there" on the novel coronavirus and the vaccines. It seems everything I read is different. One would have to spend endless amounts of energy to get to the correct answer for that person. I read some of it but become aggravated that so much information is maybe this, maybe that, and hold on. I am holding on. I do plan to get the vaccine when I can. It is in short demand where we live and my husband is going to begin cataract surgery next week so I cannot afford any side affects. My primary responsibility is to my husband and our ailing dog. To take the vaccine is indeed an individual decision like many other medical decisions. We know we must achieve herd immunity, but there is so much we do not know. I think each of us will make an informed decision and someday we will be back to a new abnormal. I do not feel confident to say "normal." I feel we are changed forever. All of us must continue to do the best we can and from what I have read from the members, we will. All good wishes, @joybringer1
