Will the Coronavirus Vaccine Turn You Into a Zombie?

Conspiracy theories abound, as American leadership continues to fail

You are desperate.

You’ve made unthinkable changes to your life, in the last several months. You’ve isolated yourself. You’re scared. You want this to be over soon. You hear a vaccine is in the works.

There are no guarantees that a quick vaccine is going to be completely effective, or that it won’t have any side effects.

But your desperation makes you want to believe in something.

And it makes you vulnerable to the advice of idiots.

Do you trust the idiots?

We used to trust America. But America has bungled its coronavirus handling.

It didn’t act quickly enough. It didn’t believe the scientists. It gave bad advice. It peddled conspiracy theories. It lied to you, and to the rest of the world. It continues to lie to itself.

Now, America is paying a huge price.

Will the vaccine turn you into a zombie?

America wants to give you a vaccine. It says the vaccine will be ready faster than any vaccine in history. It expects the vaccine to help you to return to a normal life. It says the vaccine will be safe.

America wants you to believe in it again.

Here’s a thought:

Maybe the vaccine will turn you into a zombie.

America says it won’t, and maybe they’re right.

But maybe it will be like Wil Smith’s movie “I Am Legend”, where the cure to cancer had unknown and disastrous side effects. It turned everyone into zombies.

America says ‘that’s just a movie’.

Do you believe America?

Do you believe them, when they have a clear political motivations for lying to you?

It’s hard to know what to believe.

We are vulnerable to conspiracies because we are desperate for a vaccine.

We are vulnerable to conspiracy theories because we don’t know who to trust.

Who do we trust, in a situation like this?

Not America.
