My granddaughter is in the same camp. Fully vaccinated for everything else you'd expect, but completely bought into the repackaged HPV vaccine hysteria that got grafted onto the Covid vaccines. So she's had it 5 times, including one that she describes as 'that time I almost died'.

Also, she's a teacher. At a religious school that obviously doesn't require that particular vaccine.

What the ever loving fuck is wrong with people.

Well thankfully my coworker is as vaccinated as I am (she asks me every six months if she should get the new version and I say yes), and she's not foolish about it at all. I guess it just feels like the inevitable if you haven't had it 4-1/2 years into this.

I cannot imagine the brain damage your granddaughter must have from five bouts of COVID. Wow. Disinformation is a terrible thing.

She's not stupid, but prone to magical thinking. Which in our current environment of mass disinfo is just as damaging as being genuinely stupid sadly.
