I swear some of you get off on repeating this statement over and over. Everyone knows it’s still possible to contract and spread covid after being fully vaccinated. But you are far less likely to do so. The risk of vaccinated people getting and spreading covid is LOW. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2294250-how-much-less-likely-are-you-to-spread-covid-19-if-youre-vaccinated/ I’m sorry the pandemic has been hard for you. Luckily, things are improving, and vaccinated people should be able to take a safe break from covid restrictions soon, if they choose to do so. Expecting people, some of whom have now had three vaccine doses, to continue living as though they are unvaccinated is unreasonable and not in line with current science regarding covid and vaccines. |

| Stay in your bubbles with bubble wrap on for the next 50-60 years! You could step on a thorn walking outside! The horror! |
I can’t stand them. Feels like I’m breathing hot air. Take it off every chance I get. I’m vaccinated, so to me, masks are just theater if you don’t have any health issues. |
"I don't like wearing a mask, therefore I believe that masks aren't effective." |
She may or may not have been selfish, I don't know, but I do know that she was NOT vaccinated. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7035e2.htm |
We work with our Canadian office and sometimes they start off meetings acknowledging the land their office is on was once part of the (insert tribe name here) nation. Do they do that too in your office? |
NP that's not just a Canadian thing. I've heard it happen occasionally in the U.S. too, usually by a Native American but sometimes but non-Indigenous people. |
Interesting. We said that in my grad school at umbc. |
What are you rambling about? The pandemic hasn't been hard. Its been no big deal. What is hard is people behaving is a selfish manner where they only care about themselves and therefore we cannot go out because we don't want covid. Vaccines help, but they are not 100% and many people are getting covid vaccinated. So, exclusively relying on vaccines is for stupid people. Simple precautions like masking have proven to help. But, hey, the good thing is if you get really sick or die, you cannot complain here to us as you'll be dead. |
And, none of our elementary age, and some middle school children aren't vaccinated. Kids in VA just passed away. Isn't that enough to say masking needs to stay. |
I wonder if the Anglos in England say that given that the priors on that land were Celts. |
This makes no sense. PP was talking about the risks from a vaccinated teacher infecting their students, except that the teacher was unvaccinated, and so you follow up with ... the risks to unvaccinated students? |
No, you're using the wrong denominator. In highly vaccinated areas, many of the people who are getting covid are vaccinated - but that's just because there aren't many unvaccinated people. We know that unvaccinated people are far more likely to become infected and far more likely, if infected, to get seriously ill or die from covid. Also, get out of here with the "the pandemic hasn't been hard" nonsense. |
Whatever. Have fun without your masks, cough on everyone you can, because you can. Hopefully you will make up for the loss of my business. There are many of us who have chronic illnesses and the pandemic isn't over. We know where we stand with you now. It is what it is, and I am not doing business with any of you anti maskers and anti vaccinators any damn more. |
