Why? Didn't you get your vaccine? If you did, I know it may come as a shock, but it prevents you from contracting covid. Therefore, you have no reason to give a damn whether the next guy is wearing a mask or whether he or she has been vaccinated. Isn't that a novel concept? Well, that's what vaccines are supposed to do! Who'da thunk???

It’s so out of control. It’s becoming a tic that people can’t seem to shake. The only metric that matters to those afflicted is R or D. They don’t realize what a flawed philosophy this is.

I couldn’t reply you for your last post. Too many pearls, Chowhound. I’d rep ya all day if I could.

Conservatives believe in free choice. Liberals believe in Mandates .. they are more dictatorial.



I am a Conservative and I took two shots of Moderna.. my family is Conservative and they are also vaccinated.

Yeah, I think that people need to do what's best for them and their situation, we can't always generalize that much.

From the CDC website, here is a map showing the % of the population that is fully vaccinated. Notice how strong the correlation between high levels of vaccination and being a blue state is.
Population has a big factor in all of this. Contacting people and getting an appointment is also much harder when the population is larger. Plus the states in lock down had many days off to go get the vaccine.


Many factors play into this.

You believe men can turn into women.

I suspect that religious and superstitious beliefs exert a stronger influence than political alignment.

I like this I just might use the bolded when someone makes a sweeping generalization to me.

Maybe you should read. You can still contract Covid even though vaccinated and possibly still spread the virus to someone else. There are high-risk people in my circles and individuals who cannot be vaccinated. It might come as a surprise to you but not everyone thinks only about herself/himself. “Who’da thunk???”
