Well done …roll out these Life Shots as fast as possible. There is no evidence of widespread negative reaction to the vaccines. There are however widespread misinformation campaigns run by Russia and China to destabilise western democracies by pushing fake information. Don’t listen to Mike or others spreading lies . Get the life shot and get at least 88% protection from this dreadful disease. Be thankful we have that choice , Mike offers nothing but fake information and lies.
