I wonder what the “American Thinker” would say….
-
Recall mine is a monogenic disease (caused by a single gene mutation). One generally needs a “bad allele” from each parent to have the severe type of it, though having just one can also lead to problems.
Well this poor woman on an online support group was diagnosed last month with the severe type of my disease. She told her parents and, well:
I suggested she make a deal with them: they take the free test for Alpha, and if they both come back negative, she’ll report her condition as a vaccine-related Adverse Event and investigate the lot number, etc….

Excellent reply. What's the over/under that they'll agree to it, LOL?

@jon-nyc Your response is excellent.
@Klaus You have to cut the parents a little slack. They are coping (poorly) with their daughter having received an extremely frightening prognosis. The parents are scared as well and are looking for something to blame. They probably have a basic 1980’s HS Science understanding of DNA and Genetics and their daughter has been diagnosed with a genetic disease/condition/abnormality shortly after taking an mRNA vaccine. It’s easier to blane that that than the guilt associated with knowing that you or your spouse passed on a clicking timebomb to your child, and there may be other children as well… Not that that’s a logical response, either, but I do believe a little compassion and patience can be extended to the parents as well. They will be the ones holding her hand and trying to lend strength, support, and care to the young woman going through this. Not the invisible internet people…

American Thinker awaits your opinion piece submission.
Get off your dead ass and write one.
As for some people's attitudes towards the vaccine...You get far enough out on the ends of the bell curve and you can find all kinds of wonderful ideas. Tell you what's not on the end of the curve and that is the American public's current thoughts about the COVID vaccine.
- I do believe the majority of the public now thinks we were lied to about the efficacy of the vaccine.
- I think a huge portion of the public has become very leery about the possible side effects of the vaccine. There is no way I would give the vaccine to any child, especially boys.
I think the last figures I saw, puts the numbers of Americans not taking the last booster at 87%. That's a mighty big fringe.

Yep. I do think none of us are going to take care of this ill person as her health spirals downward.

Their use of "I love you" is quite important in the response. Without it, and it could be relationship-ending. With it, and you can empathize a bit.

Really? 20-30-40 years of a parent-child relationship could be destroyed over whether or not they prefaced the response with I Love You?
SMH…

What they're clearly not doing is making it any easier for her, which is kind of their job.

Because they've done it several times already and they're getting COVID anyway. Not because it's a government-mandated highly dangerous agent invading their very bodies as we speak right now today.

Not from the single sentence obviously, but if their first and continued reaction focused blame on her use of the vaccine and no love or empathy or science, that would be hard to reconcile after a while.

What kind of parents do you have? 🤨

That is exactly what people are doing here.
Two weeks after the bivalent was available last fall, our teenager brought C19 Omicon home from school. It was fairly mild and he was back to normal in 72 hours. We see no point in giving him the third booster at any time. He’s had the first shots and now has nature’s booster. Enough.
The health authorities here are not pushing boosters for people under 25 unless they are immuno-compromised or other medical conditions which put them at a high risk for severe outcomes should they contract C19.

That's what some think. Some also are secure in the knowledge the government lied to them on this issue, so it has heightened their level of distrust.
You're never going to convince everybody about anything, but honesty would have helped tremendously
