you might consider the vaccine. Eventually, Covid will adapt itself to infecting the unvaccinated populations. The vaccinated people will be fine for the most part but as the virus is forced to copy itself inside younger hosts and other subsets of the unvaccinated populations, it will gain mutations that allow it infect these people and these mutations will probably make it somewhat more lethal, specifically, it will increase its affinity for the ACE2 receptor so a smaller dose will become infectious and the same sized dose will become more lethal than it already is. I’m sure it will find other ways too. This is entirely my opinion of course.

I’m totally against the vaccine at this point. I worked pretty much as normal up until I retired in March of this year. I worked rotating shifts where we shared workstations. I relieved someone who had covid (but hadn’t tested) an entire weekend. The company brought a close contact back to work as essential and I worked with that person in the same room. They were going home every day and their wife had tested positive. The company called people essential so they didn’t have to pay sick leave when the 80 hours of covid pay ran out.

We always cleaned out workstations when we relieved and used a lot of hand snaitizer. We never wore masks.

I may have had covid, some I worked with some who tested positive with zero symptoms.

The worst I felt all year was after we attended a funeral a month or so ago where no one wore masks. My wife’s mom and her husband were at our house and went with. They had been vaccinated. Both my wife and I got what we called nasty head colds with sore throats. My wife’s mom and husband didn’t catch it and no one else at the funeral did either. My wife got tested but it apparently wasn’t covid.

I should have said I’m totally against *taking* the vaccine, for me only. I’m not against it.
