Not necessary for me. Not saying that about everyone. Those at risk should surely be vaxed up. The healthy populous shouldn't have been pressured into the shots. I said above that I have changed camps. I have the first 2 shots but now feel like it just wasn't needed. Again, for me for fucks sake. Never made a claim to speak.for anyone else. These other yahoos are just looking for a fight.

Why do you say it's not necessary for you? Not that I care if you do or don't. But don't try to justify it by talking bullshit. Did you know that 20% of unvaccinated people who get even a mild infection develop long Covid symptoms, including blood clots and stroke, within 6 months of the infection? That rate is reduced by about half in people who are vaccinated.

What? do you think "healthy" people don't get infected or are at risk of becoming seriously ill? They do.

You really need to back that up with a valid source.

Odd indeed. Like I said above I have the vax. Since then there has been a nagging regret. Not that I think it is harmful in anyway but I regret more being duped I think.

I dont regret it by any means, or feel duped. You should do everything you can to not catch it. That said, everyone hated the measures taken. Being the group in power that has to enforce whatever unpopular provision isn't something anyone wants to do. It wasn't that effective anyways. It's just odd that once the blame would land on the dems it became an acceptable situation to open back up despite that being an obvious risk.

Time does change things, we learn more. If trump were in office I don't think the dems would have been as open to the idea.

I wear a mask to protect other people, like the aged and those that are immune compromised. You know, the unimportant people you don’t care about.

Thank-you!!! I’m one of the compromised people and partly due to all the fuckwads at first that didn’t get boosters and fucked our hospitals. Been waiting for two years to get an operation that will hopefully get me off of 4 different meds. I feel great when I walk through the grocery and wear my mask. To me it’s become a symbol of caring!

Masks protect people, but at this point they also show those who care enough about others to bother and perhaps who we should bother with in the future. They might be done with covid, but covid isn't done with them.

When do ya go under the knife? The current waves don't appear to be driving up hospitalization rates by much, but are contagious as Hell and hard to avoid.

It seems hospitalizations are increasing.

The next wave in the US has started with BA.2.12.1, exponential growth has already started, the new variant is already the dominant strain.

Saw a recent study that estimated up to15% of cases can be avoided by wearing eye protection, I've been wearing glasses when I'm out that are similar to onion goggles.
