Gladiators 1,904 Posted November 25, 2021 My son (10) was talking to his friend (also 10) about the the COVID vaccine because his friend just got the shot yesterday…we haven’t talked to our son about the vaccine, so he knows nothing about it from us. Conversation went like this. Son: I don’t think I’m going to get the vaccine. Friend: You should. It’ll protect you from getting COVID. Son: I’ll have to talk to my parents about it. Friend: My parents just got their booster shots. Son: What’s a booster shot? Friend: I think you need it after a certain amount of time because the original shots wear off. Son: So the original shots wear off? How long are they actually good for? Does the original shot actually keep you from even getting COVID then? It was really interesting to hear the skepticism when he heard about the “booster.” All valid questions he had and I don’t know if anyone can honestly answer them…well, perhaps big pharma can, but they won’t. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like he has some common sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to talk to him. Sounds like he has a good b.s. detector. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Utilit99 4,099 Posted December 13, 2021 I think the fetuses in pregnant women should get the vaccination. A longer needle should do the trick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
