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…

You would not be protecting me, I've been vaccinated and despite all the misinformation on this site, the breakthrough rate is EXTREMELY low (for now). Will that vaccine protect against all variants---I doubt it, but so far so good and we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Meanwhile....... I'm happy to wear a mask to protect those that have a medical reason not to get vaccinated. I'm happy to wear a mask to protect children who are unvaccinated. And I'd happy to wear a mask to protect patients if I got drafted back into service. BUT..... I really don't want to wear a mask to protect those who
CHOOSE to not get vaccinated because they are misinformed, or are making a political statement, or are simply more afraid of the vaccine than the disease. But that is what it is coming to, and I'm really not happy that the hundreds of millions that did the right thing and got vaccinated will now have to go back to wearing a mask, or possibly enduring another round of shut-downs and restrictions, because of those that
THINK they know better than the experts and avoid vaccination. So, you see, your decision not to get vaccinated does affect the rest of us.
