What to Believe

 One knows not what to believe.

Authoritative and highly placed sources in our government instructed us to rush to get the Covid vaccine, which was described as “safe and effective.” 

And to wear masks against the Covid.  Further, to isolate — to the extent of staying away from our place of employment  Or school.  And church.

Now, after a couple of years of re-examination we are confronted by a different group of authoritative and reliable sources informing us that the whole Covid thing was a hoax.  Estimates are presented that millions of people died as a result of taking the vaccine. Which is now described as “unsafe and ineffective.”

More subtly, an alleged effect of the Covid vaccine is to alter the very structure and function of our brains.

That last assertion hits me right between the eyes.

For I see it as a possible explanation of the chronic dizziness and brain fog that has become a constant for me.

Doctors that I've consulted are not able to diagnose, and certainly are unable to successfully treat, the problems.

What to believe?

Hell, “what to do” is more pressing!

If my dizziness is the result/effect of taking the vaccine —  and experiencing an alteration in my very brain — I'm screwed.

As a doctor once told me, “Just learn to live with it — that's your new you.”
