I'll preface this by saying I feel everyone should get vaccinated unless they have valid medical excuses not to. That being said.....

Many of them do not go to the hospital when they are "sick". I very rarely do.
Many of them can (and do) trust doctors and nurses without trusting those who develop vaccines, the CDC, and our federal and local government/s.

Call me crazy but.....
I think someone would be foolish not to question what exactly is in the vaccines and what short, medium, and long term damage might it do to their body.
The CDC has proven to have made mistakes - or at least is guilty of providing misleading information.
People haven't trusted our government since 1776. I don't fully trust it either.
I'm not a fan of mandates.

There’s still quite the irony to that point tho.

If they’re critically ill, I dunno who isn’t gonna wanna go to the hospital and receive treatment - ventilators, antiviral drugs, and such - that were developed by the same folks who developed the vaccine, and approved by the same gummint that wants to pump them full of microchips.

I think it’s another example of the theme that most Mericans don’t think a problem is a problem unless or until it affects them directly.

Darwin Awards South Dakota Festival

At this point I’m done having any empathy for the residents of Texas, Florida and other States ruled by the Death Cultists. Just saw on the news that Texas passed a rule that schools are not required to inform parents of Covid infections in their schools.

Who knew that the way we get herd immunity is by thinning! Here’s your Darwin Award. You guys brought this on yourselves. Only request is that you do us all a favor stay within your borders. Call me elitist, call me whatever you want. I’m tired also. If you can’t prevent what is preventable then it is on you.

Florida and Texas have lower than the US average deaths per Capita from Covid.

How bout the seat belt mandate?
People even resisted the seat belt mandate in the beginning. How often do you hear of people killed because they weren’t wearing one?

They were so far below average and they are now nearing the average. Yesterday just the two states accounted for a third of total US daily deaths.

I think we should have a separate count of pre- and post- vax stats. The initial case count was heavily skewed to the Northeast and they got it mostly under control by last fall. The bottom line is that the current wave is entirely preventable. Don’t know why LA area is spiking

Pdub and randy think surgeon's should get to choose if they want to practice aseptic technique or not. No one should FORCE them to be clean when they operate.

Illy will argue with this post regardless.

I've never once posted a single comment about surgeons lol I don't know what you are talking about man

Texas ya’ll!
