Glad you came around to the science.

Vaccine reluctant are usually the same people that don’t like mask mandates along with other mandates. Telling them to get the vaccine but nothing is changing, is not exactly inspiration.

We’re going to have to accept that a lot of younger, much healthier people are not getting the vax no matter what. In my family, out of the nieces, nephews, and cousins, only two got the vaccine. The rest aren’t doing it for various reasons. I’ll list them if you’d like.

My job offered vaccines to any employee. Real simple. Walk in, walk out. Less that 50% chose to get the vaccine.

That’s my thinking as well. Do you know anyone that is not getting a vaccine because they feel safe among the masked?

There is no point to risking the vaccine with no personal benefit.

Greater good won’t sell.

Oh and the virus isn’t all that scary risk wise.

These should not be happening now.

It is like a horror movie where the victims just stand there.

Risking the vaccine? What risk are you thinking about?

I have taken the vaccine. I am confident it is safe.

There are many who are not for a variety of reasons.

Think of it as risk management. In the US, we have had 572k deaths and 32.2M cases. That is a 1.8% death rate.

We have administered 96M (full) vaccinations. There have been 3.5k deaths after vaccination. A review of these showed no link. Even if we decide to be cautious and attribute all of these deaths to the vaccine, we get a 0.004% death rate. That’s a lot less than the rate for Covid and that’s incorrectly assuming all deaths after the vaccine are attributable to the vaccine.

When does it become hypocrisy?

Glad you came around to double arm interval.

I am not the one you need to convince. There are 332 M or so people in the US so that puts the overall risk at 0.17% vs the risk of a quite new vaccine. That is what the administration is up against getting more people vaccinated and their trust level is at an all time low so…good luck.

“You shouldn’t tell other people to wear masks just because Covid could be transmitted from them to others. It’s none of your business what they do. You don’t like them ignoring the guidelines or a store’s rules, you should leave.”

“We should totally mock and harass people who wear masks! It’s totally our business what they choose to do, and even though it doesn’t affect us in any way, we should tell them how to live!”

Just listened to Biden.

That man sounds like an idiot. What an embarrassment.

Hey Joe…we re already ripping the masks off outside. Your several months behind the American people while your trying to run our lives.

Never once wore one outside the whole time but was also easy to maintain social distance. ie wasn’t in any crowds. They coulld have threatened me with jail time or fines and I still wouldn’t have. I don’t cave to stupid.

When somebody else does it? True believers haven’t been mocking those who aren’t for a year?

The last time I wore a mask outside was when I was around 10 on October 31st.
