Not locked up. My wife, and most of our friends are either RNs, MDs, PAs, etc. We've had COVID. Now my wife is dealing directly with people who are dealing with adverse reactions to the vaccines they took (many of them nurses and doctors themselves experiencing neurological symptoms continuing for months and months at a time, and not allowed to speak about it for fear of losing their licensure). I only ask because it seems unreasonable to me to fear a virus that only meaningfully impacts .3% to .5% of your population. So, why not answer? Why are you afraid of the unvaccinated?

This is utter conspiracy bullshit. Neither would anyone lose their license about reporting side effects nor are those in any way so prevalent that your wife would be dealing with multiple amounts of them nor are they in any way close to as severe as the effects of COVID and long COVID. You're lying and the fact that you seriously think any sane person would believe this is both hilarious and sad as it's a very beautiful example of this covidioten movement we have to deal with.

  Wow. I don't know what to say. You are delusional and have seemingly mainlined the kool-aid. You should speak directly to any close friends or friends of friends that work in the medical field. My wife's service dealt with 250K COVID cases in 2020 through early 2021. Beginning in March of this year, they started dealing with hundreds of likely vaccine-adverse-effect patients per week (many WORK for her company)! I don't know what Germany's adverse effect system is, but I suggest you check it out and compare for any irregularities. In the US the system is called VAERS, and yes, COVID vaccine reports (from patients) have set records not before seen, while setting record-lows for reports from medical practitioners. >...nor are they in any way close to as severe as the effects of COVID... Hmmm. I've had COVID as have many of my friends and co-workers. I would say that a mild fever and runny nose from COVID, doesn't come close to potential heart attack, blood clotting, losing vision, partial or full paralysis, etc. Don't get me wrong, if you're a relatively healthy person who's health and immune system is in highly functional order, your risk from both COVID and vaccine effects is probably the same...but then, if you're a healthy person, why would you be so afraid of such a benign virus, that you feel the need to get a fairly ineffectual vaccine?

    You also broke the site guidelines egregiously. We ban accounts that do this sort of flamewar on HN, especially when it's the tit-for-tat nasty sort of flamewar like this. It also looks like you've been using HN primarily for ideological battle and that's also a line where we ban accounts. Please review the rules and stick to them from now on: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

      Fair enough. How do you/HN define "ideological battle" so I can have some frame of reference? I'm largely reporting on things I'm either seeing, experiencing, or that friends and family are seeing or experiencing. Often, it is in response to some ridiculous (in my opinion) mass-hysteria from other posters. I feel it's imperative to show experiences other than the 'common' one. I'm also curious why you would be willing to provide ammunition in these so-called "ideological battles" by banning accounts? By all means, this is your house, so your rules...ban if you must.

  You broke the site guidelines egregiously in this thread and crossed well over the line where we would ban an account. Not only that but you have a long history of doing this. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25961423 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25961423 (Jan 2021) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21161447 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21161447 (Oct 2019) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19471378 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19471378 (March 2019) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18012949 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18012949 (Sept 2018) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17863013 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17863013 (Aug 2018) Not only that but it looks like we've had to ban you in the past. All this is seriously not cool, regardless of how right you are or feel you are. I'm not going to ban you right now because it doesn't look like you've been doing it recently, but please review the rules and stick to them from now on, because if you keep doing it, we're going to end up having to. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
