18 months in and no shots for me or my 23 yr old son. The wife and daughter have both Pfizer now. Parents full shots too.
I was vaccinated, we vaccinated our kids. Were not anti vax anything. I feel got a great immune system as I rarely catch a cold, sniffles maybe. Can't recall getting the flu. Don't do the flu shot either.
But I and others like me, who are not against the shot, just feel like it is an over blown virus threat. But I am now the scum of society putting everyone at risk yet fully vaccinated people can still get covid(know a few who have) and they can still pass it on. So the only difference I see is that I "may" have severe symptoms if I catch covid. Yet if you look at the numbers honestly, most got it and recovered quickly, yet the media don't report the good stuff. The percentages/odds are in my favor that if I get it, it will be nothing more than a head type cold. Everything I read says the delta variant is more contagious, not more deadly.
I guess that is the risk/gamble I am taking but I walked through all the stores when this started and when I was probably the most at risk, because Turdo and Tam were saying we don't need masks.
I already told my son that he might as well go get them cause him and his GF will want to continue traveling and we all know no one will be able to go on a plane, train or some automobiles without that passport soon enough.
Here is the sad part, my choice is fast disappearing. I will be forced to get them soon enough as my 85 yr old dad just went into a nursing home. It won't be long before they mandate vaccine passports to visit your loved ones. I'm not that bull headed to say sorry dad, this is the hill I die on and never see him again.
Everyone knew there would be variants, I was waiting them out in hopes they would eventually tweak the vaccines to match the variants as were on #4, the vaccine was made for # 1.
Covid has given us a glimpse into the future when the next one from a Chinese lab is unleashed onto the world(get your tin foil hat on lol). I sure hope the powers that be learned what worked and what didn't.
