Imagine believing that taking ANOTHER medicine that is definitely totally unproven (but the commercial has a guy in a lab coat reading a script, so you know they absolutely "did their homework"- even if this didn't phase them before- but it's ok when they already believe it), just so you can make sure you're more vulnerable to a disease.

These people have noticed no ill effects, yet they'd rather pretend to get rid of that and take on a new risk.

And when the pill is later proven to not do anything (if it hasn't already, hell if I know just from seeing this), they will claim the vaccine was pointless when they still don't get COVID.

I hope and wish this pill is super poisonous and they have a hellish vomit sickness that wrecks them for days. Some of them will claim they're proof to suffer to get the vaccine out, but it will give others pause for sure.
