Trying to avoid powerleveling too hard but currently I have 2 friends with myocarditis and sick sinus syndrome (it's a heart thing). Neither of them can work their jobs anymore. Get out of breath and racing heart if they even stand up and walk.
I have one friend with pericarditis, who isn't allowed to return to finish his phd because even though he has a doctors note, the school is telling him that the doctor can't prove 100% it was the jab that gave him muscle spasms and pericarditis.
One of my family members took the second shot, lost her ability to walk and is now in a home. Another one had a stroke right after taking the 3rd shot.
Meanwhile my own family is pretty disappointed that I let my school/workplace fire me for non-compliance and I just "threw away my PhD" as I was close to graduating. The way I see it, a PhD in STEM is useless now. Logic and scepticism no longer rewarded.
My doctor told me there is no informed consent and that I have no choice and shouldn't worry about the long term. Amazing advice. He even advised me to get the jab over the phone with me while I was home sick with the delta variant. Like yea, I am so sick and feverish I am hallucinating, definitely need more of them spike proteins. Faggot.
Doctors couldn't last a day in my field because memorization will not get you very far.
This is all very fucked. I went from about to get a PhD in a respected STEM field to living the neet life posting on the farms in the middle of the night.
edit: since I'm already powerlevelling, the research I was doing in my PhD involved designing non- vaccine treatments for COVID and other diseases. Half the lab refused to take it and were fired. Just figured I'd mention the irony of firing people working on a real cure, not a "vaccine" that gives immunity only to big pharma and heart issues to everyone else.
edit edit: Because of what I was working on, my supervisors were very understanding and offered to continue paying me to research literature from home, teach from home and whatever else I could from home. Not good enough. All employees (which includes grad students) need vaccination even if they are working from home. The bioethics experts who keep saying this is okay, well, I hope they are served justice. Real justice.
