So what is the point of the vaccine? It doesn't stop infection, doesn't stop transmission, has potential side effects, and won't ease restrictions.
These people are the worst marketing people ever for the drugs they push
I would think headlines would be like “people are getting vaccinated and there’s finally a light at the end of the tunnel.”
Instead morale is lower than ever, every article about the vaccine is some cautionary tale of all the things it won’t change. Like all we’ve wanted all year is a vaccine to end this and now one is here and few people seem to actually care.
It’s because liberals fear they will lose their grip on the people. They want us at home, not working, and dependent on government stipends for survival. Then everyone will be “equal.”
I have stated for quite some time that if you are hoping a vaccine will be the key to normalcy you are sadly mistaken. New Normal. Repeat that phrase. New Normal means:
- Less school
- Less commuting
- Less commerce
- Less pollution
- Less financial security
- Less small businesses
- Less mobility
But it isn't just in America, it is global. That is why it is called a Global Pandemic. The only solution will be more government assistance for a long time to come. Eventually we will get used to it, even grateful to the government for providing us assistance.
Don't travel until EVERYONE gets a vaccine. If you're vaccinated you could still infect someone else. Just wear a mask. It helps protect people, and it is not an inconvenience to you at all.

Actually..... pediatricians are starting to report developmental delays in social cuing among infants in the 6-24 month range, along with higher social interaction avoidance. Dentists have noticed an upswing in cavities and gum disease associated with dry mouths.
All things have good and bad, foreseeable and unforeseeable, consequences. The dental problems are a nuisance that can be adequately dealt with as they present themselves. The developmental delays, on the other hand, are a totally different story. It’s not really surprising to anyone with a professional knowledge of child development once they think about it a little, and it is doubtful just itty-bitty ones are being impacted. Based on the potential negative long term psychosocial impact, that alone is enough impetus to get those masks off as soon as possible.
