She's not dying. She's definitely fighting though.

could have. that is the difference. from an unvaccinated person you are going to catch it and from a vaccinated person you could catch it tho you might probably not. and if enough people are vaccinated and herd immunity develops then those who cant be vaccinated like young children and those who react badly to vaccines due to med conditions etc, they all can be protected too.

@Rio Sweetie we get it, you're an anti-vaxxer who thinks they're above COVID and who LMAOs everything related to it, do I need to report you every time?

Well, I don’t like revealing my own business. But I personally haven’t got vaxxed yet. And it’s not because I’m an antivaxxer. It’s just my extreme anxiety makes me nervous about it and on top of it, I do have a lot of underlying medical conditions such as type one diabetes, a thyroid condition and a heart condition. So I genuinely just worry I *may* get sicker from it.. I’m more than willing to get it done if someone helped and pointed me in the right direction with information. My doctor said I should have been one of the first to get the vaccine but I just am extremely scared of it, which I know is silly. On top of everything else, I don’t go out. I only go out maybe once a month if that because my anxiety issues. But, that’s my story. That’s why I asked the question I asked.

Love, those are valid concerns. We are talking about completely healthy people not getting vaccinated. Please don't feel like anything is pointed at people with real heath problems. 

If it were only people like you that were unvaccinated we would probably be at a 90% vaccination and herd immunity would more than likely kick in. 

It isn't happening because of the healthy people not being vaccinated.

Just out of PURE curiosity; what do YOU consider a “valid medical reason”? 

(no one come for me, please. This is just a genuine question.)

Glad the babeh is doing better! ‘tis a fighter! 

some vaccines cannot be administered to people for various medical reasons. these commonly include allergy to vaccines, non functioning spleen (for flu vaccine), age, severely immunocompromised people who require a protected environment or if there is history of hereditary or congenital immune system problems in a family. 

the covid vaccine is new and research is still being done so it all depends on the physician and they are currently basing it on the fact that if a person had severe allergic reaction to the first dose then that person is advised not to get the second shot.

i get it. but what i would suggest you is that you go to different doctors and get their opinions. also get your thyroid and heart conditions checked and discuss with them in detail about the potential side effects of the vaccine with your conditions. and with the delta variant now being more transmissible you should get vaccinated if your doctor tells you after an in depth analysis of your conditions. i hope everything works out well for you and u stay healthy and strong.

Thank you 

As usual people are using this sad situation to showcase their moral superiority . I wonder how much people get paid to show how much of a "good" person they are on the Internet 

I just hope that the family can power through this painful situation 

the thing is that if herd immunity develops then those who cannot be vaccinated become safe too.

i'll explain. lets assume a house has 10 people in it. consider it a community. in this community lets say 2 people cannot get vaccinated; one is a 6 month baby and another is an old person with serious allergic reactions to the vaccines. so if the rest 8 healthy people get vaccinated then they can no longer spread it to one another. so now in this community herd immunity has developed. the 2 unvaccinated people are also safe now because of the rest 8 who get vaccinated. now imagine this on a global scale

medical professionals; doctors get to decide that. and they do that after an in depth analysis of all the conditions a person has. normally physicians get to decide but more complicated cases are referred to immunologists.

Sadly, the delta variant can be spread easily by vaxxed people. However, those that get vaccinated won't be taking up resources that are needed to treat people who can't get vaccinated in the event they catch covid. So, even though vaccinated people can spread covid, you're still helping the people around you when you get your shots by not allowing yourself to be part of the stress on the system.

i know it can be spread. but if it is a closed community and all those who can be vaccinated get vaccinated and there is no travel from other communities then in theory that community becomes covid free and those who cannot get vaccinated become safe too.

and yes you are right because they wont need much hospital resources because they would not have any severe symptoms.

it started as a normal thread. then a war erupted between the vaxers and antivaxxers.

Exactly, and most of us here aren't so we have no say in someone's decision to get vaccinated or not .
