I consider myself to be lucky to be among the 5% that thought critically about what they were saying and refused the jab. What did it for me was when the talking heads came out and said, "The vaccine gives greater immunity than infection". Now, under the best possible circumstances about any disease for which a vaccine has been created, that statement would be verifiably untrue. But these weren't the best possible circumstances, this was a concoction of the worst possible circumstances, by design, in order to push something. The something, it became clear later, was a vaccine that didn't work for the purpose they were insisting it was created for, preventing infection and transmission of a minor virus. They never even tested for that and skipped whole steps of every sensible testing process for determining safety.
Why would they do that? Because they knew it was unsafe and indeed the purpose of it was to be unsafe, to make things worse for the larger part of the population.
The thing I have noticed is the people who were most likely to go along with the whole charade are those who are most against things which are unhealthy. My parents are died in the wool health nuts. Seriously, my mom won't eat wheat products because she swears she can taste the glyphosate in it. But at the same time, they are waiting patiently for the next "booster" to be released so they can be in line waiting to get it. Add on top of that that this past Thanksgiving was the first time in 3.5 years that my kids, wife and I have spent any time with my parents because of one pandemic reason or another. We have seen them, as much as you can see someone wearing a face diaper from more than 6 feet away because we refused to get the vaccine.
As far as I know they haven't been infected with the virus and they will tell you it is because of the vaccine, truth is they have been living like antisocial hermits for almost 4 years now.
My journey away from the herd began when I got pregnant for the first time 50 years ago. I wanted to have a healthy baby because I had been sick from infancy due in part to my mother’s slavish belief in her medical doctor. She would have fed me dog shit had he told her to. My OB was very much like my childhood family doctor-handsome, arrogant, authoritarian. After experiencing childbirth on his terms, I swore to find a better way and took charge of my health. I read Adele Davis and Dr. Mendelsohn and followed their advice in caring for my son. When I got pregnant 6 years later I found a midwife and had my baby at home. Never had a vaccine pushing pediatrician and my children were seldom sick, neither one ever had a cavity. Why did I choose the alternative? I met and married a Vietnam veteran (helicopter scout pilot) who had chosen to go to chiropractic school rather than taking a job at the Pentagon he had been offered by his commanding officer. He had experienced firsthand what our government was up to and chose not to participate any further. Thank God I met him in biology lab and intuited that he was the real deal! He has been educating his patients since 1976 about the fallacy of the allopathic model, but it has been a slow and often frustrating process. Seems that most people want to be taken care of rather than taking care of themselves, so they blindly follow the medical model despite disastrous results along the way. I am not surprised that we are where we are today. My grandmother and great grandmother each had 10 children at home without complications. I pondered on that fact after my first birthing experience and asked myself what had changed starting with my mother’s generation. Women in my LaLeche League group were on the same page, but none of my other contemporaries. They did not want to suffer any pain in childbirth, wanted it to be easy, so they gave control of their bodies to the medical industrial complex. I truly believe that this change in our way of giving birth in America was a primary cause of the downward spiral in the health of ourselves and our children. Are there enough people waking up now after decades of destruction to our healthy food supply, contamination of our air and water to reverse the negative spiral? Doesn’t seem very likely.
I have absolutely nothing to back up my comment except perhaps anecdotally, but I think that the CDC somewhat exaggerated vaccine uptake for political reasons. Those percentages seem a little high to me.
I know quite a few people over 40 who claim that they didn’t get the shots.
(It’s also possible that some of them are lying.... I wasn’t shy in expressing my opinion of the “vaccines”.)
Evolutionary psychologists have proposed an explanation for this. It relates to sexual dimorphism and testosterone. Bear with me a moment.
If you're a female or a low-testosterone male (a "beta male") in a precivilized group of humans, you very likely depend on others for physical security. And, in this setting, you are at considerable risk for being hurt or killed for saying something that egregiously offends the sensibilities of the male group leaders or their close cohorts. And, so, it is in your best interest to go consensus-seeking as you develop an understanding of things. In essence, first you evaluate information for political correctness and, maybe later, for factual correctness. And this is actually good for the group. It's better to have a few independent thinkers setting the cultural norms, heuristics and social rules than to have internal conflict.
How does this happen in practice? Probably during early brain development. Testosterone, at very high levels, seems to attenuate social awareness. In extreme cases, it makes some men more prone to autism, in which the person lacks capacity to understand social and interpersonal nuance. Testosterone also seems to have a correlating relationship with psychopathy, in which the person is aware but simply doesn't give a shit. Very feminine women, on the other hand, are hyper socially aware, totally uncomfortable with verbal conflict and excellent at building valuable friendships with socially powerful people.

95% for over 50 is a very Das indictment of my Gen X brethren who act like they are an iconoclastic generation. Nope, we are just like all the rest.
