Getting hospitalised, for a few weeks, and probably have lasting damage from a bad case of corona... is much worse than the vaccine lol.

I rather have 1-2 days of a running nose, as the only "symptom" of haveing corona, due to a vaccine shot.
Than spend a week or two hospitalised, and have corona tear through your body, and possibly give you permanent damage (to minor degrees) multiple places in your body. Theres people with lunge/brain/kidney damage, after corona. Supposedly its more common than you think, to get lasting damage from virus's, its just if the degree to which it happends isnt severe, most dont even notice it (even if they might never get to feel 100% again) (yeah I dont run as good, lunges arnt what they used to be pre-corona ect ect stuff like that).

At the time my mum got covid she wasn't too bad but now over 7 months later she is still suffering from the effects of it. She now has to use 2 inhalers and can barely do anything without feeling severe fatigue. A friend of mine who is only 26 hasn't regained his sense of smell and suffers from fatigue after over 10 months. All these anti vaxxers care about is death from covid they don't care about the potential long lasting effects it can have on people.

Yep people take things like smell for granted.
Supposedly more than "half" of your sense of taste, is actually from smell as well.
Things will taste dull, or "wrong", after loseing it partially or fully.

My dad was on pills for his cancer, and it changed his taste, and smell.
He would litterly be sick, if something had been smoked (meats), and said everything tasted burnt or flat to him (even if it was normal tasteing for rest of us). Mom tried to cook/eat around what he still could manage to eat but... his appetite was smaller too after all this (terminal ill from cancer does things to a person). Was tough seeing him lose weight so quick, by the end he was just skin and bones.

So in short, appreciate your sense of smell and taste.

And yes, people only look at deaths with covid.
They dont mention the survivors that have had brain damage, lunge damage, nerve damage (smell ect), kidney damage, or the increased % of diabetes in patients that had corona (ei. healthy people before covid, after develope diabetes). These can be life changeing effects for some (cant go running anymore, ect).

People that think the vaccine is worse....
I dont know what reality they live in.
