"A Mexican doctor who had a serious allergic reaction after receiving Pfizer and BioNTech's vaccine against COVID-19 remains hospitalized and has not fully recovered muscle strength, health authorities said on Wednesday. The health ministry's initial diagnosis after the reaction was encephalomyelitis. Encephalomyelitis is an inflammation of the brain and spinal cord."
Why I'll wait before getting vaccine.

"wasn't me! " " I didn't do it!"
from the story:
Doctors are still studying whether the doctor's seizures and decreased muscle strength are related to the vaccine against COVID-19 or previous conditions. The ministry has said there is no evidence from clinical trials that anyone has developed an inflammation of the brain after the vaccine’s application.

Past covid logic seems to be that if covid is involved then its a covid problem. Prior conditions do not really matter. So logically the doctors problem after the covid shot must be a covid issue.

Yep, a lab right next to the facemask sewing room and the ventilator manufacturing area.
It's a choice just like wearing a mask.
Excluding situations in the future where it might be required as a condition of employment for some, that's totally up to you. As someone working in healthcare though & with knowledge of vaccine development + genetics, I'll say that meningitis (of bacterial or viral nature) isn't uncommon - particularly south of the border. There's really no convincing evidence that there's any correlation - but the fact this type of stuff is being reported is proof that these appearingly unrelated illnesses (that do occur in trials) are being properly investigated with due diligence.

After the old folks and first responders have their turn........
Being essential now for work does not mean your going to be on the essential list after the media and political factors are applied to the next list.

Just found out I'm considered essential but I'm pretty much at the end of the line for the vax. We were told it could be up to a year before it was available to our group.
People constantly throw the bill gates de-population thing out there without every having read the quote, the context, or the research study he was referencing. The study was talking about the fact that, in areas with vaccination programs, people have smaller families because they won't have as many children die from terrible diseases. So yes, vaccines help control population numbers, but because people purposely have less children, not because vaccines are killing them off. It's okay if you just hate Bill gates, but at least have a valid reason instead of parroting some nonsense someone put on Facebook.
