Aussie17's U-Turn
I've spent nearly two decades in the trenches of the pharmaceutical sector, and the hallmarks of that tenure are unmistakably scattered around my living space. Step into my abode, and a collection of pharmaceutical keepsakes welcomes you. You'll find tangible proof in my wardrobe—half of it brims with apparel emblazoned with logos from leading Big Pharmas such as Pfizer and Janssen.
Throughout my time in the industry, I've worn many hats, having a hand in the marketing of vaccines (alongside numerous other medications) at some point. However, the development and subsequent push of what were labeled as "experimental vaccines" during the 2020 health crisis, coupled with the ubiquitous mantra of being "Safe and Effective," prompted me to reassess my path. I left the industry that year. My working experience taught me that absolute claims of safety and effectiveness are highly questionable, and the aggressive push for worldwide adoption raised some red flags for me.
Making a U-Turn has left me jobless for three years now, but I don't regret a single moment of not taking an experimental drug. In the last three years, despite seeing everyone around me falling sick with COVID-19 over and over again despite being double and triple vaccinated, I have felt sick only once, in late 2020, and I simply slept through it. I didn't even take a COVID-19 test. Currently, even within my own close extended family circle (a group of approximately 15), two have been diagnosed with cancer suddenly! I've also seen several friends die suddenly from heart attack/cardiac arrest. It is something unprecedented and has never happened in such a short time frame.
It's pretty bizarre being branded an antivaxxer these past three years, especially considering I spent decades in the vaccine industry, either pushing jabs directly or indirectly, long before this whole "experimental vaccine" saga unfolded.
