My friend is going to a convention next week and if you are not vaccinated you need to bring a negative test with you that was taken within 72 hours or take a home test there. It’s pretty common knowledge now that you can get Covid just as easily and pass it on if you are vaccinated and boosted so it doesn’t make sense.
Once people get power they don't give it up without a fight.
And not too many are fighting it.
Optics and virtue signaling, mainly. But events requiring this are in the minority at this point. Since April I have been to a large conference and multiple concerts/live theater performances and there have been no restrictions at all.
I have a question -- if we allow people not to get the COVID vaccine, can they opt out of all the required immunizations and are we all okay with that.
For years military, first responders, individuals have been required to get certain immunizations, some of which are questioned by others....and we really have never seen a push back.
Are we suggesting now that no one should have to have any immunizations or just the COVID one.
Let's start with the ones that work. The Covid one is irrelevant if you get it or not because it doesn't work. Yes it can help people who are vulnerable but that's it. There is absolutely no reason a healthy person who by now probably has had Covid at least once to continue this charade.
If I didn't have the Polio vaccine I would get it, because it is proven to work and has a long history and has proven itself.
There's a big difference between childhood immunizations like polio, measles, chicken pox ect. and the covid vaccine.
The former were all tested on so many people over a period of many years. Covid vaccine was thrown together in months, tested on a minimum number of people and approved for emergency use only. Covid also has over a 90% survival rate for healthy individuals. The other vaccines pretty much eliminated polio and other diseases in this country. Covid vaccine does nothing to eliminate the virus or keep people from getting it or spreading it.
Apples and oranges you are trying to compare.
^^^^ yeah, this
while I supported the idea of 'warp speed' the rollout ignored basic science we were told to accept w/o question and now we have what we have. To an outside observer, the only sure way to get the disease more than once, is to get the vax, especially more than once. I question if this was the desired outcome.
Why are some events still requiring a negative Covid test if not vaccinated when you can still get it and pass it on?
Because we live in a society filled with morons. And far too often those morons find their way to a position of power.
