How have you expressed your displeasure about their choice? Are you questioning why they have not been terminated yet?

We were told all last year. 2 weeks to flatten the curve, we're going back to normal. Stay home, stay home. The virus is way down. A good percentage of folks are vaccinated, and NOTHING HAS CHANGED.

You didn't know it. It was new to you, That's why you asked for it. You asked for it and I gave it to you. You comment smack of nothing, because you've produced nada just what you say Im supposed to go along with. not gonna happen.

I didn't listen to that interview previously but I'm very familiar with that science.  

Promoting vaccine hesitancy is dangerous, you should stop.

Why? I'm not promoting anything. You're the one with an agenda. Im just here for the convo. Saying what I think. I won't stop saying what I think EVER.

People should do what they want. Not what you tell them.

 

THATS WHAT IM PROMOTING.

Vaccines can be safe and effective. Adults should make an informed decision and go get vaccinated IF and WHEN they feel it is the time for them to do so. Don't feel forced. don't do it out of fear, or intimidation.

Masks are used as source control, they reduce the amount contagion a person exposes others to.

 

 

But they don't make it ZERO. All you need is 1 contagion.

sequence? question was rhetorical and I wasn't even talking to you.  But I'm not smart enough to talk about virologist's concerns.

 

Actually, yes, you were "talking to me" as your response was directly linked to my post, in which I referenced Merck's new anti-viral. Jeez, and you call people irrational and illogical in other posts. How about you look in the mirror and check yourself. You seem to have a disdain for people who present data you don't like. I've seen that more than once in these posts. Yet I never see you present anything more than your thoughts, feelings, and opinions, with no sources to back anything up.

Just like pretty much everything that we seem to all agree is a worthwhile reduction of risk of harm to others, it doesn't reduce risk to zero.

If you're jumping out of an airplane, wearing a parachute doesn't reduce your risk to zero, it's still pretty clearly worthwhile to wear a parachute when jumping out of an airplane.

But do you see my point? There will never NOT be any risk. Probably ever. Covid imay be here to stay. Like the flu, like the common cold. Cases may go UP cases will go DOWN, some may die, unfortunately. Some will only get sick. The risk will always be preset. Vaccinated or not. So in this scenario, nothing ever changes. We will were masks, we will social distance, and never see a return to normalcy. There is risk in all things. I don't have to jump out of an airplane. But I do like to work, shop, eat, travel, and enjoy my freedoms as an American without Gov interference, and telling me what I need to do in regards to my health.

MY BODY MY CHOICE right?

The mandates are government overreach. Once the government has power it never gives it back. Never has never will. 9/11 was twenty years ago, and we still operate under the patriot act. Cant board a plane with a bottle of water for twenty years.

The employer mandates are effective in achieving the goal of increasing vaccination rates.
