Angela Morris said she resisted Covid-19 vaccinations for herself and her 13-year-old daughter believing that other preventative measures, like mostly staying home and wearing masks, would be enough to ward off infection.
But on July 1, Morris wrote on Facebook that her daughter, Caia Morris Cooper, had tested positive for Covid. Two days later, she updated her friends that her daughter had been admitted to Arkansas Children's Hospital in Little Rock and was on a ventilator.
"I am so scared right now and I feel so helpless," she posted.
Nearly two weeks later, Caia remained in the hospital, Morris said Friday, and was again intubated after being taken off a ventilator Thursday night.
We will be seeing more and more of these stories in the very near future.
People are placing themselves, their families and everyone around them by refusing vaccinations
As the Delta variant becomes more prevalent there will be more opportunity for the virus to continue mutating as it has with Lambda. It is becoming deadlier and more contagious. Hopefully, it will continue to be kept at bay by existing vaccines
Why do you care so much about a single persons health decisions?
Because the unvaccinated are prolonging the pandemic, causing outbreaks/mutations of more dangerous variants, resulting in needless hospitalizations/deaths, and a higher risk to all, even requiring booster shots for the vaccinated at some point in the future.
What we are doing here is taking a statistically very unlikely event and presenting it as the norm. That is generally referred to as "hyperbole." Let's take a very unlucky young lady and present her as the norm. We can also find a person struck by lightning and conclude that each of us should live in a faraday cage. While that would prevent lightning strikes, all but a very few unlucky people will ever suffer a lightning strike, regardless. Unfortunately, today's humanoids residing on this planet are largely unable to comprehend statistical risk analysis. Further, they tend to politicize damn near everything.

Replace your hypochondriac worldview with another psychotic one. . .
In this instance, you would rule over everyone driving a car.
You could leave your house today and drive headlong into my daughters car and kill her.

We can't take that chance.
Stop driving your car.
Darn. You beat me to this. Honestly, I was just going to post pretty much this same thing. You know the poster won't get the message, though, right? I'll tell you one thing, I feel way better about my chances with covid than I do driving these days. And it's probably these covidophile types that are the most dangerous drivers on the road.
Horrible analogy.....driving my car is not contagious!
You could still kill someone.
It's a perfect analogy
