What is the risk for people who are vaccinated? There should be some level of personal responsibility at this point. Everyone has had a chance to get the vaccine.
Not everyone can take the vaccine. Which is why everyone that can, should , for everyone's sake.
In summary: A.) Pfizer is raking in over $33 billion from vaccine sales. B.) Due to the PREP Act, they are completely immune from lawsuits arising from any form of complications arising from those vaccines. C.) If you don't take this vaccine, you may lose your job[0]. D.) If you don't take this vaccine, you may be barred from normal everyday social activities[1][2]. I can't be the only one who is incredibly uncomfort…
I get the discomfort but what is the alternative? NOT approve emergency measures (such as PREP Act) that hopes to push risk down and face much slow development for vaccines? Emminent domain pharmaceutical supply chain? Nationalize vaccine research efforts to "force" the creation of a new vaccine? Stop "forcing" people to take vaccine to reduce demand to penalize private enterprise? These are genuine questions. All va…

Ah yes, as soon as the world stops cultivating peanuts to accommodate my lethal (and heritable) peanut allergy. It should be a no brainer after all, with the nearly infinite other foods we have available as substitutes.

If I'm forced to work in an office, and some of my colleagues don't want to get vaccinated or tested regularly, I WANT them to get fired. It is a workplace safety issue for everyone forced to work in an enclosed area.
You should benefit from less severity of illness. Why does others status matter to you given both can spread?

How many people are you one degree of separation from that died on w/ a tube stuck down their throat? I've got 3. I'm cool with A-D and esp. C. If you aren't vaxxed, GTFO of my office. If your kid isn't vaxxed, get them as far away from my kid as possible

It’s incredible that we even have to state that. This leaves a bad taste in my mouth, full stop. I got the vaccine, and am shocked that I may need to comply with another dose or “booster” shots. I’m trying my hardest to be a team player but I’m incredibly concerned that one side would be OK with “Life-Saving-Vacinne-as-a-Service” for the low cost of x$ per month, for an unknown amount of time, and the other side is c…
> It’s incredible that we even have to state that. This leaves a bad taste in my mouth, full stop. How is that bad? When you go to a car dealer, you know he has an incentive to sell to you. Is it bad? No, it just is . It doesn't mean you stop listening to him. You just filter the information to get what you need to make up your own decision. If you distrust the dealer you can go to another dealer but you can also sti…

There are some people for whom the vaccine will not be effective (those who are already immunocompromised for example, or people with certain allergies to vaccine ingredients). > But for a young person with no co-morbidities, that chance is still basically 0%. Having long term side effects doesn't round to zero, even for young healthy people. And vaccine side effects do.
I'm hesitant to just accept this as a fact. Vaccinations can cause very strong immune reactions in young adults that would otherwise likely suffer mild or asymptomatic infections. There are many surveys that query for a basket of sometimes unspecific symptoms such as "fatigue" or "brain fog" as a follow-up of a COVID infection. I'm missing that volume of surveys in the follow-up for vaccinations.

According to table "COVID-19 Fatality Rate by AGE:" at https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-se... , the mortality rate for everyone under 40 years of age is 0.2%. That "is basically 0", but mean…
Also, are you aware you can be exposed to the virus and not be infected?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I heard they would just experience the same infection rates but at a later date than urban which seems to have played out for the rural community I'm in.
Right, that's what experts were warning, while I saw multiple people in the relevant locales holding the idea I mentioned. Was this something you didn't see in your immediate area? It would be interesting to see if there was wide regional variation on whether people felt "it won't be as bad here".
