Just two weeks into the new year, the U.S. has already seen more than a million new COVID cases on multiple days. The Omicron variant has created a dangerous surge, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimating that this version of the virus currently accounts for more than 98 percent of cases in the country. Omicron is spreading even faster than the previously dominant Delta variant, and pushing case counts higher than ever before. Health officials across the country have started to update existing policies in response to the surge, with some places introducing vaccine mandates for the first time.
Two major cities are gearing up to ban unvaccinated people from several places this weekend. Both Boston and Washington, D.C., have vaccine mandates going into effect on Jan. 15 for most indoor places. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu announced the new policy in mid-December, as cases in the city started to increase significantly because of the Omicron variant.
According to Wu's order, people 12 years or older will be required to present proof of at least one dose of a COVID vaccine before entering indoor food services, indoor entertainment and event venues, and indoor gyms and fitness settings. The mandate will then evolve in phases throughout the year, with full vaccination being required from individuals 12 and over as of Feb. 15, proof of one dose being required from individuals 5 years and over as of March 1, and full vaccination being required from this age group as of May 1.

I believe education is the biggest indicator. The more educated, the more able you are to understand statistics and science. Good knowledge of both leads to higher vax rates.

“2022 will be the year that business fire insurance rates skyrocket in certain cities.”
And medical insurance will skyrocket for everyone, considering Biden’s mandate that they’ll have to cover the cost of a bazillion home Covid tests.
People need to take a stand against this craziness.
Why demand that people be vaccinated or else when we KNOW that it does stop the spread of the virus.

I have read so much about this virus that I know the charlatans from the truthful people.

Massive lawsuits time.
So I ask: Why are unvaccinated people treated any differently than vaccinated people?
Unvaccinated people aren’t doing what they’re told. They need to be punished for that period
