I honestly can’t believe there are still people like the OP. I’ve been living my life normally since 2020.

Brain washing and fear mongering is a real thing. And it’s downright scary how some react to it.

Honestly, I prefer takeout nowadays. We went out last weekend and I spent $35 on tip (for mediocre service), when I could've spent $5 on tip if I had taken the same food to go.

If I want that "eating out" experience, I'll order the food to go and then go eat it in the mall food court...

Exactly. My 88 year old dad asked if I thought he should get the shot, I said 100%. He's in good health for his age but some extra coverage for him isn't bad.

Hah, I know! Like, all those people who have successfully concluded their own research into the efficacy of vaccines and concluded that trained medical experts are clowns who are working for big Pharma, and are encouraged by all of the brainwashing on social media from like minded geniuses. Those people are prime examples of how that works.

I have to assume that people who are anti-vax are also anti-medicine or anti-treatment. Like, how do we know when a surgeon claims to have removed a gall bladder, or tumor, or anything that they didn't just cut us open only to stitch us closed without doing a thing? And why should we trust taking any medication, ever?

That’s not what I see and hear from people I know who don’t want the Covid jab. They all have had other vaccines. I think the issue is how they feel they were forced into a corner and were told you will take this experimental jab wether you like it or not. Especially when the data shows that if you’re healthy and young there is a very very good chance that Covid does nothing to you. I feel that approach didn’t sit well with a lot of folks.

Does having a Covid vaccine card with two or three jabs mean you’re not positive for Covid? Does it mean you can’t spread Covid?

That would be a big no and a big no.

To the extent that matters.

Per newsday a few restaurants are requiring vaccination cards now on Long Island. I didn’t even know this was a thing.

Folks who don’t want the Covid vaccine (in many cases younger, healthier types who don’t see themselves in the ‘at-risk’ pool) are anti-vax?

I guess you could conclude folks who don’t eat cabbage are anti-food.
