[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me, the craziest part of the vaccine mandate was that most employers and business establishments only focused on the jab while ignoring natural immunity from prior infections. It was all, show us the vaccine proof or you're out. [/quote] [b]I think the public health authorities burned through so much trust and credibility during the pandemic, that they're going to have a hard time getting people to listen to them going forward. If they'd been more moderate and measured in their communication, and treated Americans like adults rather than selling fear, they probably would have gotten more people on board with masks (where needed) and vaccines (for the demographics where they made a difference). Instead, they pushed mask mandates outdoors, and vaccines for teenagers. [/b][/quote] Agree with this. It was clear from the get-go that covid wasn't spreading outdoors, and the overwhelming majority of people who had a hard time were people already in declining health (elderly, very obese, or multiple comorbidities) Pushing a one-size-fits-all approach was moronic from the start. If public health officials were sensible in their recommendations, you would not see the pushback we have. Yet, people are STILL calling healthy people "anti-vaxxers" for not continuing to get covid boosters. I'm 44 and had covid for the first time a few weeks ago. Not because I was cautious, but for whatever reason my body just never "took" the covid virus until 2.5 weeks ago. I did everything normally, including going to my gym maskless when they reopened in early June 2020. I haven't had a covid booster for almost 2 years. I was in bed for 2-3 days, and by day 5 I was feeling like 95% and resumed short runs outside. There is zero reason for anyone like me (let alone healthy people younger than me) to get covid shots. [/quote] Do you get flu shots? [/quote] Yup! I actually got it today! The difference being: a flu shot actually tends to help prevent the flu. I also don't have side effects from flu shots, like I have with all 3 of my covid shots/boosters. Also? The flu is way worse than covid, in my experience. [/quote]
