As Jean Kirkpatrick once said
“You’re all entitled to your opinions, even if you’re wrong”
I haven’t been sick in 20 years. Why should I put something in my body to make YOU feel better. Last year the healthcare workers were hero’s, now you think they’re bad for making a choice that affects them. How hypocritical

Accept the rules of law as it stands, for the moment. Do your best to try and stay healthy and safe. Try not to get sucked into a debate where you know no one is going to change their mind, for said debate is destined to devolve to attempts at ridicule and belittling.

Good luck, all.

Don't know why you always dis on the unvaccinated, they are unvaccinated for personal reasons, everyone is different,....when vaccinated carry a higher viral load, so unvaccinated should be more afraid of you.... vaccinated can get AND transmit covid so what difference does it make? get your one hundred boosters that have been proven to not make a difference and move on with your life....

It's clear that the vaccinated spread the virus. At this point, it's everwhere. The best defense is eat healthy and stay as fit as possible. The virus has weakened so most all will be ok.

BINGO on the "distraction" call. If history is repeated (and it does going way back regardless of which party is in power), their bag of tricks to distract is getting thin...war drums will be required to funnel funds and keep the public distracted just like these missing tests/treatments/options after already being funded and not provided.
Go back and review history, anytime the economy is in this kind of trouble, all of a sudden we seem to need to get worried/involved in some military action around the world.

No one in America - who get their news from television, is being told of the MASSIVE numbers of injured and dead from these "vaccines". Why do you think medical personnel have refused the shots? Couldn't be that they know the truth, could it? How about myocarditis in boys/young men, after jabs? Even The CDC, VAERS, WHO, many respected medical research findings, untold #s of doctors, and even the heads of Health Departments in some Countries..warning of injuries. Why then are draconian restrictions being exacted against we citizens.
"something ain't right".

Apparently you aren't seeing that the vaccinated are catching and spreading the current covid variant ... so this decision makes little sense to me.

What a horrible thing to wish upon another human being..

[Roron123]

Totally agree!! Masks do NOT prevent you from getting Covid neither do vaccinations! I had all my vaccines including the booster and my flu shot and in spite of all I still got the Flu (Covid) which lasted a good 4-5 days on DayQuil and NyQuil. So my point leave health care alone and keep hospitals staffed and running! Government needs to keep their noses out of where they are not needed let the States run themselves

I guess in your world "give me your wallet or I'll shoot you in the head" is also a valid choice. You'd make a good nazi soldier.

Your support of them having choices is false logic and hypocritical if you take away their freedom of choice to "FORCE" another choice.

You are spot on IMHO.

and then you realized that over 70% of those hospitalized for CV are vaxxed and over 50% in ICU are vaxxed per the latest stats out of Ontario and Alberta provinces in Canada. They track that stuff. It's unfortunate we do not, but then the gig would be up if we did.It's also unfortunate they mandated this for healthcare workers as they likely all have natural immunity.

If the population wants vaccine mandates let Congress pass a law. It is NOT up to the Executive Branch.

Many resigned, or took retirement, if their facilities demanded to be vaccinated. The government can now thin the herd, little more.

Healthcare workers should not have a choice because if they don't get the vaccine, they could be jeopardizing the lives of patients. If anyone should get vaccinated, it should be first of all, healthcare workers.
