If you think this is government control, I want to know what you think your entire life has been up to this point? Some kind of rugger frontier-living fantasy?

This is just a public health and safety mandate, a cherry on top of a freaking mountain of government control that has been in effect for the better part of two centuries.

Actually most vaxxed people I know want nothing to do with boosters.

They bought into the original premise when told if you get vaxxed it's back to life as usual. Now they know the authorities are making it up as they go. Plus most people don't care about COVID anymore.

Did you hear about the new delta plus variant?


Of course, it'sdeadly and more transmittable the regular delta



I heard that vaccines and boosters will be needed every year for the kids to go to school



By the time they reach highschool they would have been Injected with more vaccines then any other generation

What a cluster *bleep* this is.
Whatever. I think it’s time for me to say goodbye to the internet and my presidential ambitions. It’s too crazy out there.

If I had gotten 2 shots of something that was originally sold as being 95% effective at completely stopping a virus that has a 99% survival rate...then told I needed to get a 3rd shot because the first 2 weren't good enough... I'd at the very least start to believe I was lied to.

Everyone I know is glad to get the booster. I think it should definitely be voluntary.

Yup. And that's what's happening with many who believed Dr. Fraudi and rushed to get the vax.

Never mind it's nothing like the height of the pandemic where many had COVID. In daily life you almost never come across someone who had it recently. If the news didn't exist you wouldn't know COVID was a thing anymore as no one cares or talks about it.

Newsday’s got a cool and color-coded digital map showing Long Island’s ‘fully vaccinated” https://projects.newsday.com/long-is...n-long-island/

While it was always completely useless (since the fully vaccinated routinely get infected and spread covid) the arrival of boosters (not addressed in the map) means it’s not worth the paper it’s not printed on.
