Will You Take The Vaccine?

You know what? It would be worth the allergic reactions if society could return to normal. This 'living' is probably having a detrimental effect that would outweigh the allergic reactions.

The sense of urgency to return to normal is pretty low in many states across this country. I'm not even sure what 'normal' is. We got 31% of the US vaccinated and I think I just heard most vaccine locations have seen over 20% decrease in the number of people getting vaccines over the past 3 weeks. This is the normal lol

Were 55% vaccinated with at least one shot

We're at 22% totally vaccinated. A deplorable level nowhere near a return to normal state.

It has been announced that it is safe for vaccinated individuals to be around unvaccinated people without masks. It has been announced that herd immunity is unlikely, that we most likely have an endemic virus on our hands. Announcements that won't be helping convince the vaccine naysayers.

The sense of urgency to get people to vaccinate themselves (or their kids) seems to be dropping at the same time as our country is hitting a plateau in vaccinations.

How many of the anti vex and van resistant assholes think they are Pro Life?

Will health insurance companies require vaccination for covid coverage? Lets hear from the triggered.

Actually the CDC has said that vaccinated people can visit with the non-vaxed from a single household that is at low risk for Covid without a mask.

Life Insurance also

In indoor public spaces, the vaccination status of other people or whether they are at increased risk for severe COVID-19 is likely unknown. Therefore, fully vaccinated people should continue to wear a mask that fits snugly against the sides of your face and doesn’t have gaps, cover coughs and sneezes, wash hands often, and follow any applicable workplace or school guidance.

Maybe I am reading too much into it, but it seems like they are saying vaccinated people should wear a mask to protect the unvaccinated. Pretty similar to idea that everyone should wear a mask to protect everyone around them, which is not an idea embraced uniformly throughout the country.

It isn't like there is a major difference between the two. The point it, the vaccine cannot fully protect you and the research as to whether a vaccinated person can spread the virus without catching it is incomplete.

We have made too much progress to drop our guard prematurely.

Sad to see what India is going through now. Sobering to consider that they are three times more populated than we are, cases are soaring and yet we still have almost 50% more documented deaths than they do.

God damn, Trump fucked this up. It is a whole World War II worth of dead people.

Disgraceful.

Beau observed something about republicans that I knew about all assholes long ago. Watch it and see if you agree.

Let's talk about how the GOP proved me wrong....

I can't see any logical reason for NOT wearing a mask, outdoors or in. The Japanese had it right all this time....

Narcissists projecting selfishness.

I am guessing you mean while around people? I have to admit I am all for masks and got my vaccination but am creeped out seeing people walking down empty streets alone wearing masks. Seems like both ends of the extreme, those who selfishly wont do their part and those who dont know when they are going too far. At least the latter isnt hurting anyone.

How is simply wearing a mask upsetting to you in any context? It's "extreme" to wear a mask between meetings? Get a fucking grip, dude.

It's all about being a victim, the whinny right is always a victim, didn't you know everyone is out to get them.

Look dude, it's fine if watching people do completely useless things doesn't freak you out like a normal human being but it does me. Normalizing something that has no effect is stupid. Who said anything about between meetings, did you even read my statement or is it you have comprehension issues? I said "seeing people walking down empty streets alone wearing masks". You must be the type to wear a condom even when not having sex. Do what you like, wear a mask the rest of your life, do it when walking down the roads alone and when out in the parks. Sit in your own house and wear one to watch tv. Do it when it will have no effect on anything except your breathing and comfort. But don't tell me how to feel about people trying to normalize wearing masks when there is no purpose. I work in 3 hospitals, I have more info and guidance on this situation than most, wearing masks outside while not around people is a waste of time. Normalizing it does not help anyone. Masks have their place and are for protection, I wear one all fucking day. I also have to use face shields and gowns walking by droplet signs all day. Wear them when they serve a purpose, not when it is a waste of time. Than again I did not say I was trying to stop anyone so feel free to do as many useless things as you like. I promise not to tell you how to feel about it.

Me thinks Leslie Jones is in Troubble ! .....

The paranoid right.
