Freedom does not include a right to endanger others. COVID vaccines should be mandatory

The current ratio of fatalities where covid was one of the comorbidities to cases is 1.8% so the survival rate is 98.2%.

However, across the entire US population the annual fatality rate is about 1-in-600, which is about the same as dying from a pedestrian incident.

The virus is real, but on an equivalent basis it's like getting killed while walking across the street.

Rubbish! I got vaccinated, it was my decision. If you prefer not to... Don’t bother, that’s your decision.

Given the amount of people still dying from Covid and the tendency of variants to outwit vaccine, we’re all going to need to live beyond this foolishness and get back to normalcy. One hundred million people die yearly from a variety of causes... Just add one more method to the multitude of possible death outcomes.

These injections have not even been approved by the FDA - Simply allowed for emergency use. This is a humorless joke.

Studies I’ve seen show masks outdoors are useless.

“We can not allow forced vaccines or “passports”.”

The minute your name is on record that you received the vaccine, the easiest thing for the government to do is track everyone who “wasn’t” vaccinated. My bet is most of those “unvaccinated” folk will also be gun owners.

Now the government can look at those names and see which ones stand out.

If that’s the case, then none of us should ever be able to drive again; since we endanger the lives of others every time we get behind the wheel of an automobile.

Correct.

In fact, that is the only “freedom of choice” DEMs care about.

All else they tell you what to do.

If you want to get a vaccine then do so. I waited until I talked to my doctors as I have a recurring Auto-Immune disorder & wanted their opinions as to weather I should get it. Got 1st dose yesterday, everything OK except for pain in injection sight.

That being said. If you are vaccinated, YOU ARE IMMUNE! BY DEFINITION! There is almost zero chance that a non vaccinated person could give you the virus. After 50% vaccination rate, it is extremely difficult for the UNVACCINATED person to get the virus as the chance of coming into contact with an infected person is very unlikely.

“The cited SCOTUS ruling covered smallpox, which had a fatality rate of about 30% for all unvaccinated individuals. The fatality rate for Americans who get COVID84 is about 1.8%.”

Good point. Also compare the average age of death / co-morbidities between Covid and past pandemics. Polio, for example, crippled young children for life. Smallpox killled many children and young adults. If you are not fat or old, you have to be very, very, exceedingly unlucky to die of Covid.

Look at what these vile sub-human creatures propose doing to our Freedom.

The dude looks like he has a crossed-eyed demon inside of him.

I’m a gun owner.

The City of Detroit is to the point of begging their residents to get vaccinated. They have Mobile Vaccine trucks that fail.

People living in the City of Detroit are hardly conservatives.
The vaccine rejections are baffling the City and State government for Detroit.

I think people on all sides of politics are deciding for themselves.

The best course of action for me was to get vaccinated.
As the choice is totally your own too.

I’m not going to have some guilt trip over the government possible linking vaccinated from unvaccinated and go after fellow conservatives. It’s known who we are.

If they’re (The Feds) coming for our guns......I highly doubt they’re going to leave me alone too. They have gun records. The have sales records. Do you think they don’t?

President Trump got us the vaccines, not the democrats.
President Trump has urged everyone to get vaccines.

I trust Trump.
