(20,568 posts)People really need to learn about this before they decide side effects of a vaccine are too much for them to bear. Covid can affect the brain in ways that can be life changing. They gloss over the delirium part in this article but that is becoming a concern too. The delirium usually takes the form of extreme paranoia, hallucinations, suicidal tendencies, and inability to sleep.

(204,820 posts)I felt pretty rotten after Moderna shot #2 for about a day and a half, but compared to getting covid and possibly being hospitalized or dying, there was absolutely no comparison! After all we have heard and read, those who still don't take this seriously totally boggles the mind! A half a million Americans are dead and thousands more who have permanent debilitating effects. People need to wake up!
