I agree, we must not only be the resistance but we must be the 'Persistence', we must politely persist with our message, I recently managed to persuade my older sister not to go for the booster, quite a success considering she has had fully blown CDS (Covid Derangement Syndrome) a few months ago she was hysterical about getting our mother jabbed, which me and my younger brother refused to allow, I spoke to her with love and wrote down on an email all my concerns re the Vax, which she was of course not aware of, also my brother's wife has decided not to go for the booster, small steps but progress nevertheless.

Covid Derangement Syndrome—brilliant!

I am seriously impressed that you managed to persuade a Covidian. I was beginning to give up hope that such a miracle could occur.

it is a small victory, both are, my sister is a recently retired staff nurse from Kings in London, last year she was tragically off work nursing her terminally ill husband, so she was already traumatised when Covid hit, she was not herself at all, my sister in law has a brother who is quite senior in NHS and had pushed her towards the Vax (against my brothers advice) he is still an NHS Covid warrior and all boosted up, still wears the mask etc, but she has decided for herself not to go for the booster.
