“And I am correct about a deadly mutation only requiring one infected person.” If you live your life with that thought, you will never be satisfied until the virus is totally eradicated, and my friend, that is never going to happen. We live our lives with all kind of risks, some risks like driving a car, are thought to be acceptable. Other risks, like skydiving, may be deemed unacceptable.
I am provaxx, I work in health care so I was able to get my first vaccine in Dec 2020. I made that decision for myself because I understand the risks and benefits. I am not prepared to demand others receive a vaccine they do not want. My employer, a large medical center, now requires the vaccine as a condition of employment. I am ok with that, too. When I accepted my position I was required to have a number of vaccines (hepatitis, etc) and we have had mandatory flu shots for many years. I am opposed to the federal government imposing these requirements on private employers. I think that is the conservative position.
Same but I was vaxxed in Feb. Rural northern Michigan.
And since I graduated in 1980 as a medical technologist I have been subject to all of the immunity testing as most other healthcare workers.
This virus can and will be eradicated. I did grad time in Immunology at UMSL, and am part of a group of peers, though some are docs, in a virology discussion group.
I purchased and read ten books on smallpox history last month. They never thought they could do it either.
I have worked in molecular biology at the bench level for three biotech companies across the country, created mabs, worked with vaccinia,and bled way too many mice.
Don’t give up yet. We can do this.
I am 63 and want to have my life back. Science is amazing and the scientists I worked and studied under were the most dedicated, brilliant, driven people I have ever known.
Oh and btw. It won’t be the federal government demanding vaccines of employees at private businesses. They created a new OSHA rule.
Odd that no one here seems to know this yet.
All the drama over something they have yet to understand...smh.
But ok with the gummint LETTING the PEs do it to you?
HMMmmm...
