after my dead body I'd take it - as I said no need for such vaccinates same as for flue etc, building you immune system is the key no shots.

That's your decision; good luck with it.

Tell me more - how do I build my immune system? What do I need to do - eat stuff?, exercise?, drugs?, prayers? How do you do it, what’s the secret? I only ask as I’m sick and tired of hiding away in lockdown knowing that my immune system doesn’t have a chance if the bug comes along. If there’s an easy way to supercharge it to the level where the bug bounces off you’ve got to share it.

I think it's called a vaccine...

Forsythia is what you need, no need for a vaccine

I use snake oil. It has never let me down. Obviously it has helped that I don’t know anyone that has had TB, polio, measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria etc. since they were virtually eradicated by vaccines - but I swear it is the snake oil.

A slightly-longer memory helps (although who am I to interfere with your snake oil consumption?). I've had mumps and measles, and took the cure for latent TB. Friends just a few years older than me had polio, and some now have post-polio syndrome. I'm glad my mom didn't contract rubella, take thalidomide, or drink or smoke while carrying my incipient self.

I absolutely love the flu vaccine, which has saved me untold days of serious suffering since it became popular in the eighties and nineties, before which I used to lose a week each winter to high fevers, body aches and lingering malaise. I love pneumonia vaccines too, and have seen enough people with shingles so that I raced to get each of the available vaccinations as soon as they were available. I've had jabs to prevent hepatitis, and therefore haven't seen my eyes turn yellow or had to refrain from alcohol for 6 months following major journeys like my friends who traveled on budgets in the seventies.

I've also taken cures for giardiasis, amoebic dysentery, and malaria, and have availed myself of highly-efficient antibiotics on any number of occasions. What's not to like about modern medicine...I mean, aside from certain well-known shortcomings, about which I complain as loudly as anyone? A hundred years ago my life expectancy in the US would have hovered around 48, but here I am chafing at restrictions which prevent my next major motorcycle journey at age 65, hoping for another 15 or 20 years before one pandemic or another brings me down.

Kind've weird to condemn modern medicine while reaping so many of the benefits, I'd say. With luck, we'll see each other somewhere down the road.

Oh, you've not heard about the little blue pill? Turns shortcomings into... um.

Vaccination passports ala Yellow Fever cards make complete sense, especially if it can be electronically on your passport, with date and result. I'd go for that. People who don't have a passport will have an issue but they don't travel anyway.

No worries, mate.
Step aside, I'll have your's.
