The booster is for old folks like me (80+..recovered from prostate cancer and a heart attack), or for those whose immune systems are compromised...at least that is what I have gathered from reading/hearing reports from actual doctors. Should be no need for it for all who are in good health.Quote:

Luckily my group I was with all appear to be healthy though one said he felt hungover for a few days (he was probably actually just hungover for a few days lol).Quote:

It is absolutely your responsibility to look out for others in addition to yourself.Quote:

I've seen too many credible articles showing altered stats. People like Dr Fauci create skeptics.Quote:

At the end of the day we that are Christians are called to care for and love our fellow humans. I could not in good conscience and following the teachings of Christ willfully decide to avoid a vaccine that would help me keep others safe. It was that simple for me.
Everyone has the right to choose what they want to do. But with that said it will be increasingly harder to show sympathy for the ones getting very sick and dying that are unvaccinated. I'm comfortable with people taking their own risk, but it will suck if it allows further outbreaks and chances for mutations to new variants that the vaccine does not work against. Then if events start getting cancelled or businesses start changing policies (not to mention more people dying) again there will be a whole lotta bitching.
This thread was ok til Liverpool came up with his made up stories and theory's. He is still in his basement getting excited about this new thread and then variants Dude is a propaganda machine and gets off on these Covid threads. Notice how he has been absent til now. Called him out on 247 and he disappeared .
