Jumping off a bridge to commit suicide, if that's what you mean, and opting to not take this "vaccine" is night and day. It's a silly analogy.

I'm a "science-loving person" and I'm happy to know that the CDC thinks it's safe enough for me to not need a mask anymore. However, I will still honor any place of business that has a sign indicating that masks are either requested or required, and if I visit someone who prefers that I wear my mask in their house, I'll respect their wishes.

I've gone "unmasked" into a few places already in the past few days and it feels very strange. Almost risque.

Exactly, that is how I feel.

Nope. No enforcement is forthcoming for those unvaccinated wo a mask. Why? Because they know penalty could not be upheld.

Correct. Just this morning on the news the term, "the honor system" was used when reporting about these new guidelines for fully vaccinated people.

But, it isn't about not thinking like me, it's about belligerently refusing to take measures to protect themselves against a deadly virus.

Not true......many of us so call belligerent people have a variety of reasons we choose not to get the shot and frankly I tried of all you who has choose to get the shot feel you have the right to call us names and say rude things about us. This is out of control with the hate.

I read this the other day
“Hate has caused a lot of problems in this world but it hasn’t fix one yet”

Maybe time to stop hating those who have every right not to get the shot and move on.

Myself and 70% of my friends have had Covid before vaccinations were readily available and we all were hardly sick but 3-4 days. Worse part was the boredom of quarantine. I’ve known too many people that got extremely sick from being vaccinated too soon after having Covid, even hospitalized and one death. I’m scared to death now to get vaccinated while my antibodies are so high. I’m choosing to get periodic antibodies tests instead. My internist highly recommended this strategy as well. He said definitely I had to wait a minimum of 3 months but possibly 6 months to a year. Everyone has to do what makes them comfortable. If I were overweight or had underlying conditions,, I may look at it differently.

Nobody is hating anybody that I know of.

Now, when I go on a vacation and all of a sudden there is an outbreak that ruins my vacation because people didn't get the vaccine, that's when the whole attitude will change.

You have a right to do as you wish - just stay isolated so you don't catch it, get sick,
spread it, and ruin the rest of our experiences as the world opens up for us.

Think of Monty Python "Bring out your Dead' .. stay inside until it's your turn...

All of us had Covid and are vaccinated now as well. My antibodies were gone by 6 months. However, there are no recorded fatalities from getting the vaccine after having Covid.

In response to waiting, yes, studies seem to suggest that when you antibodies are strong, you can get sick after getting vaccine. Not sick with Covid, of course, but just the general aches and pains of a vaccine.

The ZOE COVID Symptom Study found that people who’d had COVID previously were nearly twice as likely to experience mild reactions to the Pfizer vaccine, compared to people who’d never tested positive for COVID.


However ... everybody should still get the shot, because catching the infection a second time will likely be worse than any temporary side effects of the vaccine.

So, it is a personal choice, and if you have no intent on travelling anywhere, waiitng a month or two wouldn't hurt..

Can You Get The Vaccine After Having COVID? Doctors Explain

Should have said 'Russian Roulette' I guess.

The analogy still stands. Are you you going to protect someone from themselves?

So, you are like someone who,. knowing they have AIDS or some other virus, knowingly goes out and puts the rest of the community at risk.

That's beyond selfish.

That's criminal. That is a comment from the diseased mind of a despicable, self centered, human being.

Disgusting
