‘What’s Covid?’ Why People at America’s Hardest-Partying Lake Are Not About to Get Vaccinated
Politico ^ | 7/27/2021 | NATASHA KORECKI

OSAGE BEACH, Mo.—The petite blonde bartender in ripped jean shorts bounced to each side of a square-shaped bar as women in bikinis and shirtless men lined up on a sweltering afternoon to order Bud Light, vodka and soda, and piles of nachos at this dockside retreat in the Lake of the Ozarks region.

In a county designated a Covid hot spot, in a state with one of the lowest vaccination rates in the nation, and in a region where hospitals are nearing capacity as the Delta variant takes hold, Erin, a bartender at Backwater Jack’s, couldn’t be in a more vulnerable position. She interacts closely with hundreds of maskless customers—sometimes on a single day. She knows most of them are probably not vaccinated. And she doesn’t care. She isn’t either.

> What will it take for Trump supporters to take the vaccine?

FDA approval and not just an emergency authorization?

“Trump worked hard to get a vaccine. What will it take for Trump supporters to take the vaccine?”


How about real data on side effects to start with ?

How about a real discussion about natural immunity ?

Shall I go on ?

Truth about the actual deaths from the kungflu?

Trump is a great guy, but who goes to a businessman and politician for medical advice? I prefer Dr Robert Malone (inventor of mRNA vaccines), Dr Peter McCullough (one of the top epidemiologists in the country), Dr Luc Montagnier (world’s top virologists). These men all tell me the vaccines are extremely dangerous and have been developed under dubious circumstances by some nefarious people and organizations. FYI…Trump didn’t develop these vaccines.

Too late to convince anti-vaxers to get it now. Covid Delta is going to run its course and subside when it runs out of people to infect, vaccinated and un-vaccinated.

For me? Well-I want proof that EVERY SINGLE ILLEGAL (Libs can’t even come up with an accurate number) is vaccinated.

When THAT is demonstrated beyond all doubt...maybe I’LL consider it.

But-not until or UNLESS that is proved.😠

Well, to even put it on the table, step one is FDA approval.

Yep. Hopefully, this latest wave is short-lived and the last of the big waves.

The completion of Phase 3 of the trials would be a start but then there’s still a Phase 4 and even after that, wait and see for long term effects.

And you can quit with trying to guilt people by connecting the jabs to Trump. That’s a teenage girl method of persuasion.

It’s not a vaccine.

Why are people getting Covid after getting the shot?

Why does it matter to you who is vaccinated or not? Get the vaccine if you choose to so you’re “safe” from Covid. That’s your prerogative. BTW, over 35,000,000 Americans have had Covid already and survived, and they’re just as immune as the vaccinated. Therefore, they don’t feel the need to inject an experimental substance into their bodies. And that’s THEIR prerogative.

Trump fast-tracked the process. He may have been gamed. He was never going to get credit. In the end, who counted Covid statistics mattered as much as who counted votes.

Just because you support a politician doesn’t mean you have to be in lockstep and agree with every single thing he or she says and does.

That worshipful stuff is for Democrats.

The truth about these shots, if revealed, would bring MORE reluctance. That is why the really smart people are waiting. If fear and coercion have to be used, something evil is going on. A true, safe and effective vaccine would need no whip to force people to take it.

Insiders at the CDC are reporting a LOT more deaths and disabilities from the shots than are being publicly reported.

Why are the injected still getting the virus?

Why are those who have had the virus, and recovered, being told to get an injection they SHOULD NOT NEED?

You post this article to ask that question?

This “administration” and its sycophantic media was against the vax before they were for the vax.

With nothing but lies to back it up, I imagine it’s a hard sell.

Start by vaccinating every illegal border crosser instead of just shipping them to red states. It’s either important to be vaccinated or it isn’t. I am in the camp of the latter.
