    Hi @vikki66 - I was purely concerned at Catherine21 being scared about vaccines as not trusting the govt., & wanted to assure anyone later reading this post as to their safety. Perhaps re-read what I said.

    I'm certainly not a fan of big pharma either, oh nothing to do with the money they'll make! I'm not in the least disagreeing with your comment about this.

    Sorry, can't help your viewpoint & how you feel about this forum…I have faith in it otherwise I wouldn't be part of it. I would certainly categorically say that the vast majority of members are supportive, helpful & don't have any ill intent whatsoever.

    I'm concerned about everyone's well being, otherwise I wouldn't have commented. The one thing I do know a little about is some medical stuff.

    Members will disagree with one another, which is par for the course. What we hopefully shouldn't do is an ad hominem attack, rather disagree with a member's comments; sometimes not tagging a person can also be seen as being 'passive aggresive.' Sometimes however an ad hominem attack can be justified; I do honestly try to look at both sides of everything.

    We're not always going to think the same, but why do you feel we're not unified in trying to help each other?

    Sorry, as I've previously said, that I offended you. You're not saying why has left me feeling like I shouldn't be here, when I truly want to be, as Scope matters to me. Others feel the same (not about your comments); that's where there are sometimes difficulties when members feel they need take a break they don't necessarily want; adverse comments can, & do, drive some members away. We should perhaps be always mindful about how we comment.
