They’re treading lightly because they know you’re unstable.
Actually, I'm a very stable genius.

I found this statement unbelievable. Furthermore, what exactly does "vaccine researcher" mean? They work in a clinical laboratory setting?
What if you step on a rusty nail confirmed tetanus toxoid positive? Do you think these same people will encourage you to get the vaccine? How about rabies?
I'm pretty sure I can do a risk reward for rabies and have it come on top for the shot. You know, rabies having 100 % mortality rate.
Flu, not so easy (and an ongoing topic of research)
What's unbelievable? That someone with a graduate degree in engineering who sends their kid to private school has a circle of friends that includes medical doctors and other researchers? Or that there are medical professionals that aren't insufferable authoritarians?
What exactly is a vaccine skeptic - in your opinion? What are you skeptical of?
- Adjuvants. As a materials researcher I think it's nuts we inject nanoscale alumina in our blood.
- Regulatory structure. Why can't I sue a vaccine manufacturer? Limit awards, if you necessary, but if I cant sue I cant get discovery.
- Effectiveness. The flu vaccine's effectiveness is statistical artifact. See healthy vaccine bias
- Historical effectiveness. I had a civil engineer smugly point out that his profession had ended more diseases than biology. So I looked it up. Civil engineering did more to end communicable diseases than vaccines.
- General dishonesty of the medical profession. I don't expect my Advil to be 100% safe; I don't expect my vaccine to be either. I dont expect my medical health officers to lie about it though (see mRNA and the long dismissed myocarditis risk)
I wonder how many people on HN believe stuff like this though. Not that many?
I'm open to being wrong on that guess.
Rewind back to the '21 and Id say we were at-least 10% of HN.
Fear of needles
Ive had a bone marrow biopsy done. Those are done fully awake with no anesthetic except for the skin incision.
You literally feel the push of the sharp needle cutting through your bone. Slowly. methodically. Half a millimeter by half millimeter every time the practitioner puts her weight on the needle.
Then, as they aspirate the marrow, you feel as if your balls are being sucked into your hips.
Then, despite the pain, I volunteered to sign up as a bone marrow donor.
Please, call me an idiot if you must, but don't explain away my distrust of vaccines with cowardice.
Governments have always been trustworthy?
That was sarcasm
Dead Comment
That’s not a helpful way to communicate with the public.
Instead you should follow the standards we hold for everyday occurrences, which is if there’s no compelling evidence, it’s safe to say it doesn’t happen.
"which is if there’s no compelling evidence, it’s safe to say it doesn’t happen."
I call BS.
Until there was compelling evidence that antidepressants cause suicidal ideation it's safe to say it doesn't
Until there was compelling evidence that contaminated water causes cholera it's safe to say it doesn't
Until there was compelling evidence that dirty hands cause maternal death it's safe to say it doesn't
Until there was compelling evidence that lack of sunlight causes neo-natal jaundice it's safe to say it doesn't
These examples span centuries, including the 21st, that were vigorously rejected by experts
I'd understand a delay for operational security; it is a war zone. However banned entirely?
Why is it reasonable for operational security? They're not Israeli satellites!

What? Why? Who cares whether the 500,000th-fastest bicycle racer in the world is cheating?
