It wasn't unheard of - it happened, but it was very rare.

I only make this point because using blanket (and inaccurate) statements like 'It was unheard of' as opposed to 'It happened but it was extremely rare and now seems to be happening a lot more frequently' gives the pro vaccine side the wiggle room and opportunity to discredit by extension *everything* we say, in the minds of the undecided - and those minds are the battlefield.

There is a low level war being fought here, and for many of us our contributions are words and arguments, both to expose the lies and the evil and to alert friends, family and strangers who have yet to see it.

We need to conserve our 'ammunition', choose our targets carefully, and think and behave tactically and strategically (IMO).

Nonsense; it was unheard of, and if we are afraid to speak out, we will lose.

It wasn't 'unheard of' - my friend died in his sleep aged 16 in 1985.

I'm not suggesting we don't 'speak out', I'm suggesting we do it in ways which do not provide the enemy with easy opportunities to convince the undecided majority that we are stupid, and the way we do that is by not lying and not exaggerating.

The truth is bad enough.

I sense I'm wasting my time with you though - your comprehension skills are poor.

Either that or you are here to discredit the rest of us.
