Since your article said Unjected was still up un Googlestore I looked it up there. 2.6 rating with 153 reviews. Most of the 5-star reviews simply say _Great app!_ A good many 2- and 3-star say, _Great idea but it doesn’t work well._ No screen shots of the app itself, just the logo and a mission statement (both twice): > We believe in true science & the scientific method. Observation has shown the science isn’t settled. > Those who have chosen not to be apart (sic) of the trials have documented adverse events after being exposed to the vaccinated. The long term health consequences are still unknown. > Created by 2 mothers. We believe in the power of the silent majority and want to ensure a platform; a safe space for the unvaccinated to come together uncensored through business, friendship or love. > We dedicate ourselves to health, kindness, and consciousness. > Medical freedom is an inalienable right. > But here, we are seeking the likeminded, the covid unvaccinated. ---

We bought a house in a town where people wave “Fuck Biden” and “Trump 2024” flags while wearing masks and practicing social distancing. So it’s very confusing. ---

There is a store I pass frequently, yet I’ve never stopped, preferring to drive 5 miles further. I do this because the store has pro-trump signage, so fuck them. ---

Leslie Lawrenson died at home in Bournemouth on July 2, just nine days after he told his followers that he trusted his immune system and would not go... Another all-too-common news report of a Covid denier dying of Covid. One thing that’s also common in these stories is the change of heart about vaccines from the person’s immediate family. That seems to be the only thing that can reliably change a person’s mind. If a child, spouse or parent dies from Covid, the ones left behind will get the vaccine and try to get others to do the same. ---

The hospital for which Minnesota QB Kirk Cousins has been a spokesman is cutting ties with him, due to his statements about declining to be vaccinated against Covid-19. “I think the vaccination decision is a very private health matter for me, and I’m gonna keep it as such,” Cousins said Thursday during a press conference.“I’m going to be vigilant about avoiding a close contact. I’ve even thought about should I just set up literally plexiglass around where I sit, so that this can never happen again. I’ve thought about it, because I’m gonna do whatever it takes.” > **[Holland Hospital cuts ties with Kirk Cousins over COVID-19 stance](https://www.hollandsentinel.com/story/sports/2021/08/06/holland-hospital-cuts-ties-kirk-cousins-over-covid-19-stance/5516524001/)** > > The local hospital cut ties with the NFL QB after he declined to answer whether or not he was vaccinated, citing privacy instead. “Whatever it takes” doesn’t include the obvious step, for “very private” reasons. ---

[Bubble baby disease](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Severe_combined_immunodeficiency) is super rare, and only 7,000-15,000 Americans have it. Throughout my adult life, I’ve pretty much never been sick with anything more debilitating than a bad cold. Not everyone can say the same. I can understand the temptation to believe that this is because I have a strong immune system, and that therefore I need not worry about Covid or any of the other nasty illnesses out there. (Note that I said I understand the temptation, not that I have succumbed to it. I hope I don’t have to point out here all the things wrong with this attitude.) ---

I’ve had the flu once, that really kicked my ass. I’ve had colds, but never really took to my bed for them, no matter what I told my boss. Most of the time I was able to work from home, thankfully. I’ve had stomach flus, or food-related illnesses a few times. I feel like I have a strong immune system. I got vaccinated for all the standard stuff, I get the flu vaccine every year, and I got the Covid vaccine as soon as I could. These people are morons. I understand they THINK the vaccine will make them sick or something worse - but come on! Death does NOT become you, believe me. ---

Most of the time I was able to work from home, thankfully. I don’t know how many times I’ve had flu. Haven’t had it since I started getting flu shots a long time ago. Colds? A few. Fingers crossed, I’ll stay healthy. El Jefe (the president of the company I work for) tells people not to work if they’re sick – even telecommuting.
