Well my, my my. Just returned from the GP to schedule my 2nd AZ dose and get my PTSD meds prescription, and witnessed a woman in her 30s in tears at reception. Why? She had had her first AZ dose the other day and was having some adverse reactions and was terrified that she was going to die. And guess what she was quoting as to the reason why... all the pseudo science peddlers, anti-vaxxer info and what friends had told her about the vaccines being more dangerous than Covid!! Fortunately one of the Docs saw her immediately - naturally I didn't mind her going in ahead of my appointment.
Got me to thinking about the mental health impact on folks from vaccine fear mongerers and the further damage to those already with a mental health issues from these -- well meaning -- ignorant, misinformed drongos.
When she came out from seeing the Doc, I went in (to the same Doc). Terrific fella. He told me a little of her concerns. She was experiencing the mild effects of the vaccine, mild headache, muscle aches and slight rise in temperature. Little he could say placated her fear. When I left and went to my car, she was still pacing the car park, in tears. Yours truly had a chat with her... she's much better now. I confess to feeling very tempted to dropping the next anti-vaxxer I meet.

Thank you, GTC. I'm a sucker for folks in distress, when she learned what I did she asked if I could talk with her brother (addiction issues).
Is it okay if I have a few beers on you tonight!! Full strength of course ;D ;D

I think I have mentioned this previously in this very forum, if I can find the report I'll post a link.
There was a report late last year or early this year from a UK Health group, it studied the deleterious effects of duress and stress on vaccination and other medicine, it did a study in both animal and human models. They found that the stress and duress, be it induced in animals or caused by the turd-burgling anti-vaxxers was in fact deadly than any injection! Summarised, when people are under duress/stress it imparts real world chemical changes in a patients body, those changes can go on to cause medicines and vaccines to act differently.
For the sceptics the speaker then cited the common scenario in dealing with children, some adult sedatives can be a stimulant for children, it has a name called a Paradoxical Reaction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradoxical_reaction
Indeed, it seems FaceBook, Instagram and Twitter can kill you!

Don’t say that! I’m needle-phobic and when I went for the jab they put me in a separate room on a bed (maybe for my safety but probably so I didn’t scare off everyone waiting for a free cubicle). If your theory about stress affecting the vaccine is right, I’m rooted.

I read a headline that some women are claiming their breasts have gotten bigger since the Pfizer jab. If it does have an effect on appendages, bring it on ;D ;D
