It's Not Just You, Vaccine Envy Is Real!? Is jab envy real, or is this just old, tired propaganda?

It's Not Just You, Vaccine Envy Is Real

Rachel Moss·Reporter at HuffPost UK

Tue., March 23, 2021, 7:54 a.m.

More than 27 million people in the UK have received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine – and if you’re not one of them, your patience may be wearing thin.

Sure, we all know there’s a priority list for a reason, but it doesn’t stop us feeling a little jealous of the vaccinated folk booking holidays and planning post-lockdown gatherings with wild abandon. (oh, so tempting, the jab)

Lucy Baker, who half-jokingly describes herself as “a 44-year-old exhausted mum-of-three from Kent”, says vaccine envy is real. “I’m desperate to be part of the club,” she says. “I want to have it so I can see my beautiful parents. It’s a bit ‘me me me’, but I think I’m allowed after the pants 12 months we’ve had!.........Claire Barker, 33 from Hertfordshire, says the jab would give her “massive peace of mind” as she has a two-year-old son who relies on her, as well as caring responsibilities for her mum and elderly neighbour. “I worry what would happen to them if I passed away from Covid or was very ill with long Covid,” she says. (oh, the fear)

Are these stupid stories for entertainment purposes only or are they targeted at the propagandized, mind-controlled masses to make them believe "EVERYBODY wants a jab...it must be good!" After-all there are many people I know who ignorantly believe covid is a "real and present danger" but still stubbornly say, "I will not get the jab."

Update:

y...Are you kidding? 

Update 2:

Anonymous, I think YOU have been singled out as the troll. Are you Dunker?

Update 3:

Pat, I appreciate your story. It is an example of the confusion that comes from the world of lies we live in. Please stop listening to the "horror stories" they create in order to instill fear in you. Fear is one of the things that will keep you from the truth, our very Jesus Christ.

    I'm a senior with a pre-existing condtion.  I've read too much about the horrors of getting Covid and the long-time side effects it can bring.  I've gotten vaccines for years for various reasons such as the seasonal flu, tetanus, etc. and have no fear of them. I registered with for a shot in January, and here it is almost April.  I check daily on several websites, and  they all say that no vaccines are available at this time.  Yet I hear of people much younger than me getting shots so they can go party with their friends.  Yeah, I'm envious of them

    Vaccine envy, for myself, is very real. I am pissed seeing special groups, targeted communities, the very rich and or, those with connections. Being able to get vaccinated when am not even eligible as of yet.
