@bendeb thank you for the information 99% the deaths related to covid is high. How many deaths are you talking about in that study? To get the full picture, how many of those had health issues? Knowing the ages would be helpful. Overall how many of the total population survived the covid infection? From what we heard in the news media in the beginning of the pandemic most people who died were in nursing homes, sadly. I believe it is important to get enough information to form a decision as you had done and be comfortable with the decision. I agree with some members, knowing what may become a health issue due to vaccinations is important to consider when making a decision although the risks are low. Yesterday we heard on the news media of 100 people developing Guillian-Barre Syndrome as a result of the J&J vaccine. This syndrome is a nerve disorder which could lead to paralysis. 95 had to be hospitalized and one person died. We heard again that this is a rare occurrence and the benefits of the vaccines outweigh the risks. I don’t think those 100 people believed that. I would think the health officials can only mention the immediate benefits because they don’t know the long term effects. No one does. Time will tell. True, everyone reacts differently making it even harder to find a proper treatment helpful if one exists. I find it true people may not possess the important critical thinking skills or know mathematics as well but many seek the advice of their physicians or medical staff who should know better. Let me remind you those physicians know as much as they are being told with the vaccines. Perhaps they cannot offer much help. I wish you well.

Sorry, the report did say that the majority of these current cases were those in the 40-50 age group.
It’s my experience, being in the senior population, that most of us at high risk due to age and all the fun stuff that your aging body can be subject to, have been vaccinated. That is probably why the virus is no longer being reported as much in nursing homes, etc.
Also, where many people have been out and about more this summer, and not as worried about getting together, younger people are picking up the variants.
I believe any vaccine can cause problems in any number of individuals. Not just this one. Ultimately, it’s a personal choice. Life is full of risks.
Good luck with
all of your health decisions. It isn’t easy these days!
