True. By that point for me, I had gotten it as had the wife. So we knew the outcome for our particular situations.
Don’t get me wrong. A buddy of mine had cancer in September of 2021 and on his Rec I got a vaccine to go see him and make peace.
And agree. There’s a significant percentage of folks with hypertension, one of the biggest comobidities.
I think my point is, this was an event where things like healthcare choices no longer became personal for large swaths of folks opinions. Not something I could really agree with. Especially once it was clear herd immunity wasn’t ever gonna happen. In the same way I think abortion is a medical and personal decision that the government and employers don’t really have any business regulating. My employer had contact traces that would ask deeply personal questions, like sleeping arrangements at home, and if I hugged my wife. I told them my wife was fine and was out mowing the grass and they reported me for violating isolation protocol. We live on multiple acres…..
Well that is over the top. We didn't have anything like that where I live.
