[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are still getting COVID with the vaccines. I could understand if the vaccine prevented to onset of COVID but it doesn’t. And who knows what the long term side effects are. I don’t believe people should be forced to take the vaccine [/quote] Your argument is similar to saying that people shouldn't be forced to wear a seat belt or have an airbag in their car because they can still have an accident or suffer injuries in a car while using them. Vaccines, like seat belts, don't eliminate risk, they reduce risk and likely injury. Unvaccinated people are 11 times more likely to catch Covid than a vaccinated individual. (You can't spread covid if you don't catch it). The unvaccinated often have higher viral loads and they take longer to clear them from the system which means they are infectious for a longer period of time. They are at a dramatically higher risk of being hospitalized and straining the health care system. [/quote]
