I guess if they wanna fuck themselves the Canadian government will help and pile on! I imagine that would apply to sick leave EI if the unvaxxed get covid, as well as those fired for refusing the jab...

We are in the midst of a global pandemic, so of course there’s fear. Fear is a powerful emotion. Much of everyone’s various and often wildly divergent reactions to the current situation with the COVID pandemic is rooted in fear.
There is fear of catching COVID, fear of loved ones getting it, fear of dying from it. There is also fear of governments infringing on rights, fear of economic catastrophe, fear of negative effects from getting vaccinated.
Fear associated with the current pandemic is not one sided, especially in the US. We spend an awful lot of time arguing back and forth over what various groups think we should be most afraid of.
The past two years have certainly demonstrated that we are capable of whipping ourselves into hysterical frenzies over various issues associated with COVID.

Fourth Covid jab: We can’t vaccinate the planet every six months, says JCVI chief
Further inoculations should not be offered until there is more evidence, says Sir Andrew Pollard, with priority given to the most vulnerable”
This is the chief of the JCVI today, “evidence” is being asked for.
A nut?

It is a dynamic situation caused by viral mutation and large numbers of unvaxxed people, the advice will change. I figure we will get boosted annually in the fall and winter like the flu vaccine, this will probably join the cold and flu season as a new player. Omicron and delta have changed the game for now though, but there is a growing scientific consensus that we can't boost our way out of this every 4 to 6 months.

it's still your choice..do you really need to go to the movies? Big Business is behind this and plenty morons to partake.

It is not a choice for some! Some (not you so it seems) have to go to work to survive.

I have a kid in school. So, yeah, I've put a moat around my castle, I stay home, work remotely, I only do what is necessary to keep the house running. But a kid has to go to school and develop. So, my castle is compromised. The drawbridge is down. Public schooling weakens my defenses but I've seen the alternative and think the risk of contracting severe Covid is less than the risk of harming my kid by pulling him out of class.

What you suggest is only possible for people who don't have to go out into the world.

It’s all cool. I incorrectly detected a petulant tone to your posts.

I like reading your flappings. Not for this reason alone, but because you spell honour, colour, humour and neighbour correctly.

I spell like the old colonial oppressors, I have no choice in jolly ingland, what’s your excuse for this continued tyranny of spelling the old way?
secondly what do you think of the cunty royals, they are your royals too right?

Let's put it this way folks, covid mutated into a very contagious strain that we cannot stop, but we can slow it down so that the healthcare system doesn't collapse. Sending kids back to school right away after the holidays, in winter with the hospitals bursting and staff reduced, might not be wise. Kids need to go back to school, but we need a plan and time to boost some vulnerable folks too, we also need to give the hospitals some slack. It's endemic and it looks like most folks will get some version of it sooner or later and some people might get it multiple times. We will learn to live with it, we will muddle through.
