A new COVID vaccine is due next month, but health experts and analysts say it is likely to be coolly received even as hospitalizations from "Eris", a variant of the Omicron form of the coronavirus, rise around the country.
Why? Why do care? What does anyone care if they want to get vaccinated or not? Don’t get it if you don’t want to. Don’t wear a mask if you don’t want to either.
I just cannot understand this holier than thou attitude about vaccines and masks in 2023.
well I would agree to you if those people would just have to deal with the consequences for themselves.
But since these people are actively spreading such a disease with their ignorance, we actually have to care if they wear a mask or are less virulent due to a vaccine shot…
Did you also not care two years ago? I know it’s the current year and all, but it’s rather convenient if you only developed this attitude after the time it mattered to have it.
Imagine saying this in 2021. You’d be called an anti-vaxxer for sure, if not also a racist and a grandma killer. It’s worth thinking about what has actually changed since then.
And I don’t care what other people decide to do for their own health, for the record. I think everyone is free to do as they wish, and I always have. I just wish the same courtesy was extended to me and mine when this was an unpopular opinion to have, but of course that’s too much to expect from people who believe they know what’s best for everyone else.
That said, if you actually take another booster, you deserve to be made fun of. I would never advocate that these people should be fired, or run out of society, or put in a camp, or summarily executed, but pardon me for thinking some light ridicule is warranted.
Then your original comment makes no sense. If you truly don’t care what other people do then why comment at all? Why do people need to be ridiculed for taking another booster? It’s not like we haven’t discovered how well Covid mutates. Take it, don’t take it. But I’m happy it’s available and that people have the option to have it.
Did I not care two years ago? What kind of silly question is this? Of course I did. And you’re fucking right I had develop this attitude because I take the subway system everyday. If I cared about every Tom Dick & Harry wearing a mask or potentially not being vaccinated at all, In 2023, I’d never get anything else done.
You also have every right to throw “light ridicule” on the internet, but be prepared for others to comment right back on how silly it is.
