In order to register for grad school, I had to show proof of vaccination, or get a shot! This, after the school initially said I didn't need to. I let the school know how their initial, incorrect statement affected my ability to respond to the mandate, much sooner. In response, they "held a seat for me."

I sought legal advice. All attorneys I asked said to me: "No way around it! Get them shots! They're holding a seat, so do it, now! You have no case!" I decided to get the shots!

I have enough food for a year. I live in a small town where I can easily walk from one end of town to the other. I'm retired. Did I forget anything?

Which vaccinations did you need to get?

That's just the way it is.
You do not get to use a virus or any other ruse to destroy society and take freedom from others, but keep drinking your Kool-Aid, dear.

You’re set, but most people aren’t. Hopefully you’ll help pushback on this even though it won’t impact you personally.

Okay, yeah, whatever would stay wash after wash and NOT be toxic!

There may be major civil rights battles stemming from this. Best wishes to those who have the courage to fight for human rights. If more and more of the currently fear addled will come around, such battles won't be necessary.

Umm yeah now I’m not anti-vaxx, but what the???? I’ve never heard of anyone forcing you to get vaccined. This sounds like a horrible idea, especially since this “operation warp speed” thing just sounds straight out of the beginning of a zombie movie.

This is called social responsibility. I have a responsibility to not only myself, but to you. Just like kids can not attend school without being vaccinated, potentially infected people should not be allowed to go around infecting everyone else.
