26. Got a new Covid vaccine

Tue Sep 9, 2025, 07:46 PM

Sep 9

last Friday along with flu vaccine. Went to Connecticut since NY CVS were still requiring a prescription. Have yet to hear of anyone dropping dead from the Covid vaccines, but hundreds of thousands were dying of Covid.
A meta-analysis of seven COVID-19 studies, published by medical journal Cureus in August 2023, found that people who are unvaccinated are 2.46 times more likely to die of COVID-19 than those who are vaccinated.
