I am one of the people who helped originate LymeNet, back in the 90's.
I am sure none of us saw a time when it would be used to spread un-verifiable information against vaccines- let alone one that has been proven to spare people from a plague that has caused over 700,000 American deaths and millions more across the planet.
I am appalled that people who agreed to moderate Lymenet would set up a Lymenet board where such dangerous and un-proven material found on the internet could be used for people to foster vicious, opinionated ways that could lead- and have led- to so many people suffering and dying because they chose to believe what is being spread here.
Think of all those families who have been devastated by the loss of parents, children, brothers, sisters and support - both emotional and monetary.
The majority of people overwhelming our hospitals, and those who care for the sick and dying, are people who did not get vaccinated.
People who need other kinds of care have to wait because hospitals cannot care for them or do surgery or other procedures because hospitals are so over-crowded and overwhelmed mostly by people who avoided or refused to be vaccinated against this devastating virus.
Nurses and doctors are overworked and overcome by so caring for so much pain and death that many are giving up the profession they loved because they are totally exhausted.
I called they guy who worked on my sidewalk repair recently, who was not vaccinated- and proud of it. He now has Covid-19. He sounded very ill, and is isolated from his also un-vaccinated wife and two children. All I could do was wish him the best.........
This is no game - to compete with others to find the most wild and nasty new postings all over the internet and spread your one-up-manship to glory in.
It is time for seeing how it really reflects on you and how it causes so much pain and grief.
