That is sad, and I am in favor of government funding of research into how to prevent preventable deaths.

That on the other hand has NOTHING to do with COVID. Your choice to not be vaccinated puts my health/life at risk. That takes the decisions OUT of your hands and puts them into the governments' hands as a matter of public safety.

I am not obsessively worried about being sneezed on and dying, I acknowledge it is possible with the DELTA variant. Do you drive through neighborhoods are 120 mph? Why not, are you afraid of dying?

Being concerned, aware, and taking reasonable precautions is not the same as being "afraid" or in a panic - as so many insult me by saying.
I never suggested that vaccines need to be 100% effective, but you’re the one who has been vaccinated and apparently doesn’t believe in it effectiveness...
Otherwise how am I putting your life at risk…
I have chosen not to get a vaccine with a new and unproven track record. I’m not suggesting people not get the vaccine, but you and others are demanding that I must get it. But not for my benefit, but to protect you…
