No one is forcing anyone. Some people are so selfish they only care about themselves. They do not let their kids go to school yet they hang out in bars. People who do not want it will be the reason covid will not go away. There are always naysayers in every group and that is why life will never be the same.

Without so-called herd immunity, the virus will continue to spread from person to person and place to place for years to come, scientists have said.

Take a deep breath. I'm not sure if you're living in a bubble, or if you just choose to be dramatic/paranoid, but the world is reopening, and its not collapsing. It will be ok. That article quotes only 30M vaccinated; now we're up to 100M, and most states haven't opened up to general populations.

As I said earlier - I'm not anti-vaccine - my kids have all traditional shots, as do I. And I'll get this one when its my turn.

I am fine. why are you in the NJ thread if you are not living in NJ. I do not care what you get. If you want to be part of the solution then be part of it. Otherwise, if you want to be selfish and paranoid then so be it.

Such people are precisely why can now see with Israel as an example where 57% of the population has taken at least the first dose, the vaccination drive now appears to be stalling in new people taking it since its mostly the anti-vaxxers who are remaining.

Bundles of doses are literally now being thrown away after failure to convince enough people there and can see the same happing in the US shortly when we get to that stage.

This will prevent herd immunity I worry.

herd immunity isnt required. there has been this propaganda heavily promoted lately that "herd immunity" is some kind of holy grain and it is so important that it justifies forcing people to inject things into their bodies that they dont want. you dont need herd immunity. you just need to have the vaccine available to those who want it. then those people will be safe and those who dont get vaccinated will have accepted the risk.

Who made you an expert? yes those who don't get vaccinated will waste medical resources, cause shut downs etc. So extremely selfish
