      My elderly mother-in-law was terrified of COVID and made it a point to get two extra booster shots a few weeks after she got her original dose. She goes back every three months to re-up. I suspect she’d get more if the Pharmacy didn’t have her on file.

      Some people are just, like, the opposite of anti-maskers. Absolutely paranoid of the disease and ready to grab at any kind of tulpa offered if they’re convinced it’ll offer protection.

        Perhaps she has “Hypochondria?” Who knows how many people/lives in her life that was affected by COVID. At least this article provides some confirmation that she isn’t hurting herself.

          Or she’s just on Facebook too much. She’s not like this with everything, but COVID really got under her skin.

          No more than someone with a bunch of tattoos, anyway.

            In her defense, Ive had covid 3 times and it really sucked every single time, even with the 3 shots I got. If taking 6 shots would have made it half as bad, I may have gotten them.

              I mean, to her credit she is batting 1.000

              Even helped me take care of a newborn for a few weeks while we had it, and the disease bounced right off her.

            That’s a fair point. Unfortunately, there is still plenty of posts of antivax people dying from deaths that could have been prevented. Which coincides with the fact that the platform is incredibly anitivax in the first place.

            I personally don’t understand the tattoo reference here but have an up vote anyways. 🤷‍♀️

              You typically get a tattoo by having a needle jabbed in your body repeatedly.

    I am from Germany, and the last time I hear about that someone got 217 vaccine shots it was satire because some places offers free food if you get a shot. And he said: “I was just hungry”

      You need to get an even number of shots. 0, 2, 4, 8… Everybody knows that. Its basic science.

      At 217 this guy’s in real trouble if he doesn’t grab another.

    Well that’s because he hasn’t gotten the Bill Gates’ microchip vaccine grown in the same peach tree dishes as his burgers administered by Biden’s Gazpacho police and activated by the Jewish space lasers!

      When the vaccine came out and I got my first shot, I told the nurse who administered it that I would drink it in a smoothie every day if it helped us get past the pandemic. Still would.

          Is there evidence to suggest that drinking a vaccine smoothie would help everyone get through the pandemic?

                Because the person was using it to rebuke a comment saying the person clearly had issues, their argu was essentially that if reality was different then this would be a good idea which is something you can say about literary anything so totally worthless to say.
