Just got an email from a friend who is a snowbird. She can't believe she can come to FL to get a vaccination, when she can't even get one in her home state. Here they come. But how do you ship her allocation and a person to administer it to FL? There's the question.
1. He's already had the virus or the vaccine.
2. His parents are snowbirds that do not "live" here but are here for the winter.

Explains why he really doesn't care one bit about someone who actually resides in FL who is under 65.

At this point if you are under 65 in FL you are screwed and might as well just get the virus and hope you don't have long lasting symptoms, heart damage or lung damage. That's exactly what the Gov. wants.

In other words - most of the people who aren't spreading this virus or catching it, are not doing so because of their refusal to obey the guy who is making suggestions and requests without mandates.

When your leader says "you don't have to but hey it'd be swell if you did" then your leader isn't leading.

But the people complying with what the CDC recommends, are doing a better job at leading than your elected official making suggestions.
That’s been the conservative position the entire time though. “We don’t need mandates because we are handling it ourselves as individuals.” That’s worthy of applause, but I wonder if the continued fragmentation will work out in the long run.

None of that matters, because this is a medical procedure, which you just acknowledged. Stop politicizing it.

Ha, man, are you so off base. With every post you make, it’s clear you’re so wildly off the handle that accuracy suffers greatly.

Spare us the dramatics. Wash your hands and social distance and you will be fine. Your bigger concern will be making sure that others get vaccinated as supply increases so that we can reach herd immunity.

I have been doing this. The boss is forcing us back to work on the 12th to work in a building with 150+ people. No amount of washing your hands is going to keep this from being a huge outbreak.

So you are saying that you didn't have the corona virus? Which would be opposite what your other posts indicate, or that your parents aren't in FL as snowbirds for a few months? Or are they both true ...

Our company has had more than 150 working in manufacturing since the outbreak without one infection. People wear masks and keep their distance.

When you arrive, ask how they will keep the 6’ spacing.

It requires medical personnel which are of limited supply. The more people that come into FL that want to be vaccinated the longer it will take. There is nothing political about that. DeSantis made it political when he opened the doors to anyone over 65. If you don't understand simple arithmetic, you're just trolling.
