Of course, I know that any new vaccine or drug can have a small number of unfortunate side effects \u2013 but honestly, aren\u2019t well-informed adults allowed these days to calculate the risks and make their own decision? Apparently not for many employees, who were ordered to get the Covid vaccine or be fired \u2026 and are now facing health problems that make Covid itself look like pretty small potatoes.<span id=\"more-69824\"><\/span><br \/>\nMy daughter and I were extremely reluctant to get the vaccination \u2013 mostly because we had read enough to be skeptical, neither of us was in a position where we could have been forced to do so as a requirement of continued employment. As it turned out, both of us caught Covid anyway. So did Wee Jamie at the age of four months or so. He had a mild temperature and the sniffles for two days, and that was that.<br \/>\nAs of this writing, 2020 Covid is done. I wrote\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/chicagoboyz.net\/archives\/68851.html\">earlier this year<\/a>:\u00a0<em>The dreadful creeping suspicion among the general public \u2013 or those who have been paying attention to the world around us, tallying up our own observations and personal experiences \u2013 is that the Covid vax may possibly be damaging in the long run or the short run to those whom it was administered, whether voluntarily or under threat. And if it is damaging \u2026 will that ever be fully acknowledged, or publicly regretted and apologized for?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m afraid the answer to that one is \u2013 no. Those responsible for inflicting incalculable damage likely are incapable of ever owning up to what they have done. They will never publicly regret the damage that their actions or non-actions did to general mental well-being of a large swath of the public, or the irrecoverable damage to school students left to their own devices for almost two years because public schools stayed closed. They will never acknowledge the economic damage to small businesses in lock-down-crazed states and municipalities\u2026 and most especially we will never hear any regret over the damage to health caused by a rush to administer an experimental vaccination. There will be no apology to those who were forced to vaccinate or else forfeit employment. And why? Because the authorities, bureaucrats, politicians and media who insisted on all this view themselves as good people, good people who simply don\u2019t do awful things \u2026 you know, like wreck the health of strangers, kill their elderly parents in hospital, isolate them in their homes, ruin their business, shred their mental health and wreck the education of their children. Nice people, well-intentioned people simply don\u2019t do evil things like that \u2026 and they are nice people, with the best intentions in the world \u2026 so they simply didn\u2019t do any of those things. Expressing sincere regret and apologies would mean admitting that they aren\u2019t nice people, with the best intentions in the world. So, they never will own up to the incalculable damage. They simply can\u2019t. and still maintain their self-image as nice people.<br \/>\nDiscuss as you wish.
