Greetings!

Hi everything and welcome to the discussion of the week which is the sciFi weekly prompt. Seriously, the topic before us this week is an interesting one and this is because it's a health topic and as we all know that when it comes to health, life must be involved and for this reason, I would go with the popular saying that says, “health is wealth.” and that's why we need to take care of our health.

Having said that and prepared our mind for the discussion and topic of the week which talks about vaccines and its effects, I would like to share my little perspective and opinion about the topic.

Yeah, let me start by saying the advent of science and medical technology has really brought about a great change and development to the human race. And part of what it's brought to us is the development of drugs and vaccines to cure, protect and stabilize our body system against all forms of diseases and infirmities.

The advent of vaccines has really brought about defense to our immune system. I could remember when growing up in our local community back then. Back then, whenever we see the immunization workers going up and down, we've already known that, it's time for us the kids to be brought out to be fortified against, polio and other related disease and this in one way or the other has really helped us against the effects of the outbreak of such diseases or infirmities even from then till now.

I could remember the outbreak of cholera in my community back then. When the new of the outbreak broke, people were running helter skelter just to prevent it and also make sure they didn't contract it, but all to no avail, but it's the timely intervention of the government and the health sectors through the provision of health assistance and vaccines that helped to salvage the situation and prevent further loss of lives. Though we lost two people in the community as a result of the cholera outbreak, thank God for the administering of the vaccines on people which later helped at preventing it from further escalation.

So, the use of vaccines has really helped to save humankind from going into extinction, but one thing I have got to know is that, there's no way a thing will have an advantage without a disadvantage. As good as vaccines have been to the human race, there's also some other side or negative side of it and to be candid with us, most of the negative sides come from the way it's being administered on people.

At times most of the people saddled with the task of administering on people are inexperienced and as a result, instead of them curing people from such diseases or infirmities, they tend to add to the people's problem. I have seen a lady in my area that got deformed through the administering of a vaccine on her. This happened when the person that gave her the vaccine injected her wrongly and this totally paralyzed her right hand. We have seen many occurrences like that, but aside that, vaccines have really been a blessing to mankind.

Also, on that of the covid19 vaccine, the use of the vaccine really helped those who contracted it. Though, it's expensive to get, but for those who could get it that time, they were able to survive the scare of the time. And as for those who also enjoyed the government providing vaccines for free, they too were able to survive the scare of the time. But like I said earlier, so many people even at that, died of the outbreak and this is to show that some of the vaccines were not effective and what this means is that's good and beneficial a vaccine could be, there would also be the production of the fake of the original which would even cause more damage than expected to the body system of those that have contracted the disease.

Aside from this, some of my friends that took the covid19 vaccine also complained about them getting dizzy and even sick for weeks after taking the vaccine.

So, the use of vaccines is good and has really preserved human life from untimely death, but at the same time, if not properly administered, it could cause severe damage to the health and body system of the individuals and the society at large.

This is my entry to the sciFi weekly prompt.
