I’m neither. That further lowers my odds to .00035. The CDC also said that the majority of those hospitalized had an average is 2.6 of the these pre existing conditions; diabetes, heart disease, lung disease or hypertension. So, actually without those, my odds drop to virtually zero. I’ll take those odds over an unproven vaccine technology

I complete understand you rationale. You at least post well reasoned explanations of you decision. Thank you.
I disagree with you decision on one point, and that is, I got the vaccination as much to help stop the virus from spreading and killing others as I did to protect myself. I feel we all have an obligation to each other to help.
However, I think I recall you wear a mask when out and about, if that is true and I am not misremembering, then thank you for that too. If that is the case, I really have no issue with you decision, you thought about it and made a reasonable decision, and are taking steps to help reduce the spread.
Until vaccinations are mandatory, I think you are an excellent example of someone who doesn’t want the vaccine and yet is still being responsible.
