Just an open opportunity to talk about the vaccination and people's point of view.
  • How people have came to the conclusion that the vaccination is the way forward..?
  • How it could divide people's beliefs..!
  • How would you cope with non vaccinated people..?
  • How about half vaccinated people ie got one jab but not going any further?

1. By believing in science and the proven method of vaccination to stop disease, which goes back two and a quarter centuries.

2. The division is between the educated who believe in the collective good of society and humanity and the selfish idiots who follow conspiracies by politicians looking to get re-elected, cable news hosts looking to make ratings and billions of more dollars and Facebook influencers trying to get their 15 minutes of fame and troll.

3. Shun them, scorn them, and point out their mental defects since they are the only ones now prolonging the pandemic and causing restrictions. As well as just generally failing to lose sleep if they wind up being hospitalized or even dying.

4. Those people are half idiots and have even less of an excuse then the full anti-vaxxers.

And no, I didn't pick a poll choice because as already pointed out, there doesn't seem to be an actual question.

Vaccination is the way forward. We all need to get our two jabs, and in the future our boosters, perhaps every six months. The benefits of vaccination are huge. There is no significant down side.

I have been required to have vaccines for the areas of the world I work in. Not to get one would be stupid. The odds of harm from the vaccine are a fraction of a percent, damage from virus if you live can last a life time. ..... if I know a person is non vaccinated I will avoid them. I still wear a mask, and avoid large groups. It not much different then the space between political groups. I also avoid trumpers who are the majority of the non vaccinated. Not all are, but most. . I think my last comment answered the next question. Not getting the 2nd shot if not for a medical makes no sense.

A booster shot less than 1 year from the initial shot? Does nobody use their own reasoned logic anymore? Do only a few of us still have the ability to think past what we are being told to think and believe?

Has anyone scene the science supporting boosters?
It is just like the lack of scientific justification for any of this ever having needed to effect school age children.
Does anyone question anything?

Do you understand how the mRNA works? Downside has not even come close to being undererstood yet. Why do you think every vaccination before these took 10 years or more to ever get near a human body.

Have you considered that the CDC prescribed course of treatment that hospitals must follow could be more harmful than beneficial? I have heard several doctors trying desperately to tell the world: "the treatment is what's deadly, not the virus".

I again today talked to my 19 year old son in college, on a full ride scholarship, telling him do not get forced or feel forced to take the vaccine. His health is not in danger unless he gets vaccinated.

We are STILL fucking discussing this? This should not be in the "health and fitness" area. This area is for "health". Not stupidity. You get the fucking shot or you are a selfish idiot fucking up everyone else's lives. Why? To get back that "freedom" Facebook told you you lost.

That's the polite version for me...

We have once again learned a critical lesson. Well some of us have. A fat chunk of Americans believe everything and only what the media tells them to believe. They never validate information, they believe a Google search will tell them the truth and worse, that to question what they heard is simply unimaginably stupid.

I agree with you. Most of the anti vaccine groups are followers of Fox news and make their decisions based on political views. Natural selection will step in and solve this, just ashame it will also take many who aren't mentally deprived.

I don't know about political ideology playing a role but I do know that ethnicity has a strong statistical pattern.

The booster will take aim at newer variants, just like annual flu shots are reworked for each season.
I’m required to have vaccination in my work.
My last two lovers were very young children when polio was still a great danger. Neither contracted it because of the Salk vaccine. I didn’t contract it because of the Sabin oral vaccine.
Salk took seven years, but there wasn’t a model fir how his vaccine could work. He had to start with the smallpox vaccine model (a protein vaccine model).

We already used mRNA technology. It isn’t brand new. Yes, this is the first successful use of mRNA in a vaccine.
The first successes in research were in 1989. IIRC, mRNA is used in some cancer treatments that aim at stimulating the body’s immune system.

In the US the deep south has avoided the vaccine and they are political very conservative, and also where you find the religious right mixed with the white supremacist. Many feel the virus is not real. Not sure what will wake them up at this point. Texas with 17,000 new cases yesterday, and Florida with 15,000. Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, now out of ICU beds. We are way past the wake up call.
