Your post: “I am not vaccinated myself...”
A bit confusing.
Way too many deaths and serious illnesses for sure.
I had a whopping bad case of Covid in February of 2020, and thus natural immunity that lasted until Omicron came along. I also did not personally have conditions that put me at increased risk for severe illness or death from Covid if I caught it again (not elderly, not obese, no diabetes, not taking any drugs that suppressed my immune system, not working at a checkout stand, etc). My risk/benefit ratio, plus my life situation, was in favor of my foregoing vaccination. If I had a different health profile and no natural immunity, I may well have chosen vaccination.
Others have calculated their risk/benefit ratios differently based on their own age/health condition/life situation, perhaps with the help of a trusted doctor — and I respect that their reasons for getting the vaccine may well have been perfectly valid. I am not going to judge anyone’s private, personal decision on whether to get vaccinated or not.
President Trump and our own beloved JimRob are vaccinated. Both are smart, knowledgeable men and I trust they made the right decision for themselves. Some here chose not to get vaccinated for their own personal and private reasons. I trust they made the right decision for themselves and respect that, too.
Either way, it’s really none of my business. Nor any business of the government’s. It’s neither my affair nor the government’s to go nosing about in other people’s personal private health decisions, let alone dictate them.
