You still sure it ain't gonna kill me?

He didn’t say he was sure, he said it’s highly unlikely to kill you, which it is. Considering the good measures you put in place in protecting yourself and the odds of even catching it still fairly slim, you’re literally jumping hurdles to go from having a slim chance of contracting Covid-19 to it instantaneously killing you.
We should all be vigilant and we should all do our bit to reduce spread, but you aren’t being hunted by a monster. There’s a slim chance of dying in a car crash, so you put on your seatbelt and drive carefully. Clearly that doesn’t guarantee your safety, but it sure helps. There’s a slim chance of contracting Covid-19, so put on your mask and wash your hands. Again, that doesn’t guarantee your safety, but it helps.
If you go through life trying to be sure that things won’t hurt you then you’ll be a rather unhappy man. Just try your best to stay safe and for goodness sake stop telling yourself that your life is at risk. All of our lives, for various reasons, are at risk when we step foot out of the door. All we can do is try to reduce those risks and get on with it.
If dieting was easy everyone would do it. People simply do not understand the major impact that depression and low self-esteem has upon diet - anyone who says "it's easy - eat less, move more" is a simpleton who deserves a beating.
Sure, I could try but every other attempt has failed miserably so why should this be different? As for the "but you could cure your diabetes" stuff - you can't cure diabetes, you can only put it into remission.
I've just been doing some research on the Pfizer vaccine. Am I correct that it's an RNA vaccine?
I don't want to scare, or talk rubbish crap, but there has been no approved RNA vaccine ... ever. If it is RNA vaccine I won't touch it for personal reasons; and for reasons why an RNA vaccine has never been approved.
I was reading this: https://www.barrons.com/articles/eve...ne-51604935908 ... it mentions a few times about their stock price increasing and investors. It's stupid that even during a pandemic people want to make a profit :roflmao:
Just my 2 cents.
I don’t doubt that dieting is extremely tough, but surely it’s not nearly as tough as going around telling yourself that today might be the day that you contract a virus that could kill you.
The whole “eat less do more” argument might be a bit simplistic, but it is the answer. Of course it isn’t easy, of course saying it is a lot easier than doing it, but I honestly feel it may actually do your mental health some good. At least it might make you feel that you’re in control rather than at something else’s mercy.
I won't be having one neither will my son, not sure whether my Partner will.
Not read the thread all through, but that's my personal opinion about the vaccine.
In reverse order: that's pretty much how I have spent the last 30 years of my life. Be it heavy metal exposure, asbestos, cancer (not helped by reading of the case of a 39 year old local today with bowel cancer), heart trouble or hernias, one soon replaces the other in the carousel.
The former? It's exactly how I feel. Everywhere I go, everyone I see, everyone who talks to me - I feel like they're the attack vector for this disease purging the world of the weak, sick and elderly.
