We fully appreciate that many people have strong opinions about various topics (in particular COVID and vaccines) and while everyone may voice their 'opinions' it is important to 1) respect other people's opinions and 2) not state personal opinions as if they are based on scientific fact.

If the administrators of this online community feel that a statement may be misleading or is disrespectful to others it will be removed.

This HU community should be a 'safe' space to offer support to others living with inflammatory arthritis.

Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you. I feel some boundaries might need to be clearer especially re Covid, as you mentioned in your post, as it over excites some people. That’s a very truthful observation over four years and not meant as inflammatory in any way.

PS Please let’s respect Clare’s post. 🩷 I really mean that. We are privileged to be given a voice on here and for some it’s a lifeline. Thank you.

I agree with you. We're not all the same and have different experiences a d opinions I'm anti covid vaccine and have felt unable to even mention the fact even though I would never push my opinions about anything on to anyone else they are personal to me .I've been on this site for a long time now and love to read and hear from others re RA. . I wish you all well and let's hope the weather changes 😀

I return your good wishes…..yes, it would be nice to be warm in July!

I am of the same opinion Mozzza….I agree with vaccinations in general…but not more & more for Covid. I feel what other people do or think about any treatment is their business. …as I said we are all entitled to our personal opinions .I am old fashioned enough to think if my rheumy & I agree…I’ll give it a try. I don’t feel the need for regular consults once I’m on a drug that suits me…I’ll holler when things change. ..which I hope won’t be any time soon.
