My son mid-20s works for a company that is on the fence about the shot. He will not take it. He has been exposed to covid many times and has worked in hospital settings through the whole pandemic and never got sick. He has his resume updated and ready to go.
He got a phone call from a competitor the other day offering him more $, a higher level position (project manager) and said they will not mandate the vax. He told the guy he will let him know, he wants to see if his company will do he right thing first.
Same with my wife. Been working at a nursing home this whole time. Covid has been through the place twice, once with the original and once with delta. 4-5 of her co-workers have had and recovered from covid. We just can't seem to get it but then again, we haven't been sick with the flu or a cold in 5 years. We got the flu/cold often for the prior 5 years but then it just stopped. I guess our immunity against respiratory infections is pretty high. Only sickness we did have a few months ago was her being sore and tired for a few days which overlapped with me having stomach issues for 4-5 days like nothing I've ever had before so maybe that was covid for us and we just didn't get the respiratory part of it due to our immunity in that area. The kids 18/19 didn't get anything or if they did, it was asymptomatic. I've been keeping her informed about all the jab news so she's not going to be getting it nor am I.
