Thanks to the mistrust sewn by the medical agencies, politicians and entertainers over the Covid vax I will never get the flu shot again. ✌🤡

Is there a new COVID VOC (BQ.3.1) nicknamed 'ARACHNE' containing unseen mutations and unusual behaviour circulating? Will it defy the prospect of actually ending this pandemic any time soon?

I once said those who do not want to be vaccinated should be left alone and my account was canceled because I said it (Cruel and mean)

But several studies reveal that the flu shot is largely ineffective?

Hope so. I got the flu right now :/
