o
Toatlly agree with everything you wrote! and yes same here with me about the covid-
19 shot. I received it a few months back but then when I really think about it. I start
going crazy thinking about what the vaccine is actually doing in my body and what are
its motives.
There is really no exact answer so I guess the best thing we can do is move on with
our lives and put our trust in the medical professionals.

As I consider my self a main stream American citizen, someone who works a job and goes to
college, I rely on the medical professors and doctors to keep me safe. For someone who is not
knowledgeable in medicines I have to but my trust in my doctor that he is giving me the right
medications because he wants to be best for me. But this video really reminded me and made
me aware that I have to not always but my trust in others but to also make sure whatever im
putting into my body is safe for me. I hope to start doing more research on the medicines and
the foods that I put in my body.
