[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly there are too many anti- vax people in society. I think the 10 day quarantine is great because it punishes people who wouldn’t otherwise get the vaccine.  That happened at my kids HS. Kid was quarantined for 10 days and low and behold mom decided to get vaccine for her kid. The public health issue wasn’t enough- only when it was an inconvenience for her family.

I feel bad for the ones too young to get the vaccine but they will be able to do so soon.[/quote]

But, the stats show that is very simply not true.

98.9% of eligible Montgomery County residents have gotten their first dose.  So, less than 2% unvaccinated, as of October 2021.

That is not ‘too many anti-vax’ people by any means.  [/quote]

More than one person who is anti-vax is too many people.[/quote]

FFS.  So your goal is 100% of the planet vaccinated?

Never going to happen.  So we need to acknowledge a more realistic goal.  What do you think that would be to make you comfortable?[/quote]

Doing everything we can from a public health standpoint. Many selfish  Antivax folks who just want to prove a point will get the vaccine when it gets too uncomfortable for them. Those are the ones I’d like to push.  They think they are going to be fine without it and could care less if it spreads and kills some elderly person but they will get it if their kid has to quarantine for 10 days.[/quote]

It’s not selfish to to not take a brand new vaccine.   Vaccines alone are not enough.  If they were we’d have no breakthrough cases.  Most people vaccinated are behaving poorly.  They are putting our kids at risk.  [/quote]
