...which I have talked about at length here before, so I won't go into them in detail again, lest I upset anyone who gets riled up about that type of discussion. But in short, my wife had some short-term cardiac issues documented through bloodwork that appear to be related to the first dose of the Moderna shot that she got. That, coupled with a bunch of other things that multiple respected physicians are now saying, is enough for me to forego vaccination. As I said before, I fully expect to get COVID and recognize the chance it could make me very sick or even kill me. However, I am still somewhat young, don't have any known underlying conditions, and am doing everything I know to boost my immune system. Recent studies indicate a strong link between Vitamin D deficiency and poor virus prognosis, and there some very encouraging research about quercetin, as well. I know several people my age who have been supplementing with these things who got COVID and faired very well.

So, long story short, I have made a decision to take my chances with the virus itself vs. getting on the never-ending vaccination train.
