[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am getting vaccine this week but in general, why does anyone care about others not getting it?  We aren't reaching herd immunity and you're protected so nothing to worry about.  That's why people are hesitant (among other things) but if it works and it prevents Covid, then move along.[/quote]

I agree. It’s about control at this point. Politicizing it, and making the losing side pay. It’s an escalating arms race between two parties, and we are all just political pawns. It is all making people dig their heels in more.

-vaccinated, didn’t vote for Trump in either of the last 2 elections[/quote]

No. Everyone gets vaccinated, Covid goes away.

People don't get vaccinated, and it doesn't go away. And we keep paying the price.

What is so damned hard to understand about that?

Not everyone will get vaccinated. We'll be lucky to hit 70% vaccination in the US. In plenty of places, vaccination rates will be even lower than that. Herd immunity simply isn't happening.

Some businesses and employers may require vaccinations from employees/patients. But, tens of millions of Americans work for businesses where the owners won't require vaccinations. Do you really think a hair salon in the suburbs if Oklahoma City will require vaccinations? And large swathes of Americans don't have a PCP. The emergency room is their medical provider. So, a lot of the pressures you might be able to apply to an UMC mom from Bethesda to get her and her kids vaccinated aren't really going to work on tens of millions of Americans who couldn't care less what some elite pediatric practice does.
