That being said, there's no hate or judgement. I love all my brothers and sisters throughout the world and I love you!

      Something a lot of people who have gotten the vaccine don't realize is that the vast majority of us who haven't aren't "anti-vaxxers". We simply feel it is OUR decision what is put in our bodies. The average vaccine takes 15 years or more for development, testing and distribution to happen. Some take decades. These have gone through that entire process in one year. The CDC admitted that they have no idea if there will be any long-term side effects. There is no way they could know since it never went through long-term testing. There have already been thrombosis with thrombocytopenia(which can cause serious long-term disability or death), heart conditions, Guillain Barre Syndrome and suspected reproductive complications. All this in less than 2 years. Some of my family have had the vaccine and some haven't. Some of my friends have and some haven't. Fortunately, we are all mature and sane enough to realize that it was THEIR choice either way and we respect that and them. I'm glad to see you are the same. God bless you.

      @@michellel5444 @Julie Ann Bailey My family and I are not vaccinated for various reasons. Perhaps you could explain something to me that I can find no other place to ask (perhaps I didn't look hard enough). My perception of all this is that this evil thing is passed from person to person evidently by several ways. My question, at least part of it, is if you are going to possibly die from this shot, have massive side effects, AND STILL get it again, why get the shot? If it is passed by persons WITH the anti-bodies, i.e.-someone with it, has had it, or has had the vaccine, are they NOT the spreaders? If I am unvaccinated and have no symptoms (yes, possibly just a carrier, but assume not), how am I this bad monster the system is trying make us out to be? How can I infect someone if I DO NOT HAVE the bug? Please tell me where I am getting turned around. Both my wife and I are in the Highly-at-Risk group (Diabetic, Choleserol, Blood Pressure, and I have Peripheral Artery Disease and a stent. Neither of us has had or have it, but have been around many (evidently) that have tested positive. Also, what sense is sending kids home from school because they have supposedly been within some magical distance from someone that tested positive, but their girlfriend/boyfriend who is in close daily contact with them is allowed to stay in school? Please understand, I AM NOT trying to attack you or anything, I just would like some information. It seems everything I hear contradicts something else I heard, so ...? I thank you in advance for your help. And I apologize if this is not the right forum for this, but as I said, no where I have been have I been able to ask questions to someone that may be able to answer and you both seem to have level heads.

People that are dying "of" covid are dying "with" covid and are dying of another underlying health condition! The PCR test that tests for covid is not accurate. There is so much sensored truth out there on this idiotic nightmare we are living. They keep trying to delete it from this platform especially. The common sense doctors that talked about quarantining the healthy people and killing our immune systems (Dr. Dan Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi), the truth about Kary Mullis and the PCR test that he invented and spoke about, (he conveniently died in August of 2019), the doctor in New York that in a nutshell, said putting healthy people on a ventilator is killing them, all the mask on mask off bologna, to all the adverse reactions and deaths from these lovely vaccines.

    We have a lot of family that have also decided not to get it, again, their choice, but it is ours to not be around them until the Covid crisis is over. It hurts my heart, but we also take care of elderly parent that we can't endanger. What a mess for the whole world.

    I will start by saying I don’t think anyone should have to put anything into their bodies unless they want to do so. They should never be ordered to do so. With that said my Mother didn’t ware a mask mostly because most other people at her church didn’t want to be told to do something. She never went anywhere but church this was the end of December before the shots were available to everyone. She went to church on a Sunday and Tuesday started to feel a little bit sick. I took her Wednesday to get tested Wednesday got positive results. By this time I had been monitoring her oxygen level and from Wednesday she was at 98% and Thursday was at 94%. Her Dr finally got back with me and said take her to get checked out by the ER Dr they kept her and at 1:30 am on January 4th she passed away 13 day from the Sunday she went to church. 3 people from her church passed away from it and 5 were put in icu. A she went to a very small church maybe 30 people when they had everyone there. So I just wanted to tell others when you go out around other people it is more for them that I put on the mask. I have not had the vaccine myself and not sure if I will yet but I would just like for people to be more aware of other peoples feelings and rights and don’t make someone feel bad if they choose to put on a mask or get the shot because they both do save lives. I have another family member fighting for her life right now and the vaccine and mask could have prevented it. God Bless everyone and I am not trying to start a debate I just wanted to have people to stop and think of others because we don’t live alone on this earth we have neighbors and it doesn’t hurt any of us to think of them when we go out and if we are not feeling well stay at home until we are better. That’s all nothing I said is ment in a hurtful or rude way it comes from a good place and I will keep praying for everyone and that this thing goes away soon never to return 🙏😊

However we choose to protect ourselves we should also be respectful to others and consider their wellbeing too.

    Here's a story a preacher told that help me to make up my mind. A good Christian man lived next to a river, one day it started to flood. His neighbor came and offered him a ride out, he said the Lord would save him. The water kept rising so a boat came to get him but he said the Lord would save him. He climbed on top of his house and a helicopter came to rescue him, he said he was standing on faith. He drowned and got to heaven and asked the Lord why he hadn't heard his prayers, the Lord said I sent your neighbor, a boat and a helicopter. Vaccine may be someone's helicopter.

    Okay, first off let me say THANK YOU for saying “you don’t care” what we think about YOUR personal choices!! I feel God gave us a system that will build up immunities. May not fight it off completely but our symptoms won’t be as bad as others. I feel the exact same way. My husband, my son who’s 27, and myself literally just got over this crap 🙄 2 weeks, the first week is sick, the second week is striving to get your energy back. The boys had the bad body aches with theirs but I did not. We all had the headaches and loss of taste and smell. My 8 year old grandson lives with me and he got sick also but only for 48hrs. He’s homeschooled so he was bound to catch it. We live on a 4 acre homestead. Renovating a 100yr old farmhouse. My son stays in there and my husband, our grand, and myself have lived in a 2016 42’ 5th wheel for almost 2 years now while we slowly remodel. My husband is a police officer and of course I stay home. Produce our own food, we have goats and chickens and for pork we have a pig butchered every fall from the local FFA kids. So we stay to ourselves but still got it. Took our vitamins and got well. We will NOT get that jab!! Maybe 10yrs down the road when we see what the actual long term effects are, then maybe but probably not. My grandson only had his first set of shots then I put my foot down and said no more! He is hardly ever sick, well he was his K year in public school but since he’s homeschooled it’s hardly ever. Plus he is super smart. The school begged me to keep him enrolled. I’m assuming for money and this test scores. He was reading at a 5th grade level by the end of Kindergarten. Anyway, sorry for the book I wrote. I text like I talk 🤓 God bless you all and know that whatever happens God will provide!! 🙏❤️🇺🇸🙏❤️🇺🇸

There's this odd misconception that working in your chosen career is your 'right', when in fact your presence is always at the discretion of your employer. You have no 'right' to be there if you refuse to follow the company's rules and there will always be someone ready to take your place if you choose to step aside. It's important to make decisions based on your personal convictions but you can't expect the rest of the world to bow to your personal truth....it just doesn't work that way.

I have had the vaccine and have been blessed that I haven't brought it home to my family. Please wear a mask if you go anywhere where there are alot of people are present.

    I'm reminded of a story about a man caught in a flood. The water got higher until he had to get on the roof of his house. A boat came and offered to take him to dry land but he refused saying god would save him. Another boat came with the same offer and again he refused saying God would save him. Before the water rose over the roof a rescue helicopter tried to evacuate him but he said no, God will save me. The water rose over the roof and he drowned. When he reached heaven he asked God why he didn't save him from the water. God replied that he sent 2 boats and a helicopter. Maybe we need to be open to different ways God can answer our prayers and not rebel against things that are not our idea and turn down help when it is offered. We all need to make our own choices. I chose to get the vacine, now it is mandated by my employer. I work in healthcare and have seen how the virus has hospitalized and killed healthy people. I've gone years without missing a day of work due to a sick day, but this situation is too scary for me not to use every resource I can to protect myself. I hope and pray everyone can be happy with the choices they make in this hard time!

    Hello from South Jersey! I am soooo happy that you express the SAME VIEWS as I do regarding this new vaccine mandate. I myself, am a critical care nurse who has worked tirelessly first hand with these acutely ill COVID patients and was recently forced to get the vaccine by my hospital employer. The idea of “my body, my choice” is no longer valid when they told us it’s “their choice to employ us or not”. It’s absolutely crushing, to take away that choice after the past year and a half with having us work day in and day out with NO vaccine and NO adequate PPE or having to reuse the same N95 mask and gowns multiple times for each COVID patient encounter even though they are single use masks and gowns only. It’s disgraceful. Last years “hero’s” are now being threatened as being this “years unemployed” unless we all comply. As always Thank you Stivers for allowing us a honest glimpse into your life and let us all know, that we are not alone in this! 💪 sincerely, a forever follower!

A company has a mandate to provide a safe work place. We will see if they will fire the unvaccinated on Oct 30. I am pro choice but the hospitals are filled with covid cases and many serious operations are delayed due to the people sick with covid. Do the unvaccinated think of all the people dying because they can not get treatment in a timely fashion because of the covid cases filling up the hospital ICU beds.

    I really wrestled with this, too,, but I realized that I’d had all my childhood vaccines and my child had hers and I finally came to the conclusion that God is either going to protect me or else He’s not. I know I’m saved, redeemed by Him and I know that He protects me. So, I stopped wrestling and trusted Him to protect me, even from the side effects, if necessary. I’ve had no side effects other than a sore arm. I guess what Zi am saying us that I gave it to the Lord, asked him to protect me and got mine. I’m healthy, but I got it bc our world is smaller now and 10 years from now if another one flits over here from China, I wanted some immunity built up bc I surely don’t trust them..to each his own, but I just gave it to the Lord and stopped being afraid…

      @@pamelaremme38 Clearly you know nothing at all about the situation here. We are not required to wear face masks any more, some people choose to but it is not required by law any more. There are now no laws that restrict us in any way thanks to such a large portion of our population behaving responsibly through the whole pandemic, following rules, having the vaccine etc. The vaccine does not prevent covid but it does vastly reduce it's seriousness. We are getting back to normal and getting on with our lives thank heavens.

      @@kosmosjk hey Julia, I’m not pro or anti vaccine… or shot… whatever you want to call it. I’m sorry this other person was so heavy handed (or worded) with you. Personally, I haven’t decided whether to have it or not. I don’t like that it is still an experimental drug. And, honestly, even if they decide to remove it from experimental category it’s still experimental because we don’t know the future side effects of it. Consider thalidomide; it was used to treat morning sickness and caused deformities. What I really don’t cotton to is being forced to take it. Where is the “my body, my choice” group on this???

    I respect you both more than I already did for sticking to your convictions, principles and not being forced into something that violates them. I also will not get the jab. It is my body and I alone decide what goes into it. I also appreciate that you feel as I do that those who do get it and those who don't should respect the decisions of each other. As to the fears of losing jobs, people need to realize there are almost 10 million jobs available in this country right now. Many of them do not and will not mandate the jab. Stay strong. God bless you and your family.

    Actually I am getting so much joy and peace from reading and studying the book of Revelation. I believe that Jesus Christ will be coming in the clouds very soon (so many things are pointing to that happening even this year!) for those of us who believe in His death, burial, and resurrection, and are trusting only in His shed blood as full payment for our sins, and not in any of our own works. Nothing this world has to offer could begin to compare with the joy of being in His presence forever.

I would just beg you to use extreme caution when you are away from home. My perfectly healthy 32 year old son was buried Saturday the virus killed him within a week. It seems to be getting worse among younger people right now. My son was in the air force for 11 years making sure America remained free and we could all make these choices. I worried every time he deployed "out of country" . He chose not to get the shot. I respect his decision but I am a broken hearted Momma right now.

    Everyone needs to make the choice based on the needs of themselves and their families. And we do live in the USA where we are blessed with freedom and liberties for now. I respect everyone's choice and would never think less of anyone who chooses or chooses not to take this vaccine. One thing I've always loved about this channel is that you guys talk about these types of things. Much love and hugs.

    Speaking to the vaccine topic, my husband and I are in our 60s and after having covid we decided to take the vaccine. We took the vaccine before it was being mandated. However our adult children have decided not to be vaccinated mostly because it is being pushed as though it is law instead of choice. Each family has a right to make their own decision. I would say, if you are in a place where break out is heavy, protect yourselves from exposure. P.S. God is still God no matter how our world looks.

    "Don't jump to Revelations"! LOL LOL LOL!!!
    As a nurse I felt that it was 100% necessary to get the vaccination even though I had strong reservations about it...but I don't want to die yet and I certainly don't want to be the cause of someone else's illness or death. It's sort of a rock and a hard place situation for me. I'm so glad that you're being true to yourself and I am praying that it will all work out for you. Much love to all of you!

    Sweet Family, I highly respect your right to not get vaccinated, due to your being healthy adults and you don’t go anywhere. But, your children go to school and could bring it back home to you. Please consider that the most difficult cases right now are those where the folks are unvaccinated. They get it much worse than those vaccinated.
