Why? For a virus that is survived by 99%? In case you haven't noticed, everyone coming down with Covid (cruise ships, NFL, NBA, NHL, erc) have one thing in common - they were all vaccinated and wear masks. South Africa, where only 27% of the people have been vaccinated, and where tge Omicron variant originated, only had 2 deaths and both of them had other medical issues. And now, they are past the health danger as even Biden just lifted the travel ban on South Africa. Wake up people. This is not about your health but about government control.

Omicron is a different virus. It does seem people are over reacting given the vaccinated-boosted have no worse than bad cold symptoms.

Sadly, ignorance has a concequence. Mostly the unvaccinated are ending up hospitalized and dead.

The latest numbers show that 30% of those hospitalized with Covid are fully vaccinated.

You know that Medicare covers vaccine 100% it won’t cost you a dime no matter what insurance you have 😇

Because of the media and both political parties, the whole vaccine issue is very confusing.

After my two Moderna shots in the parking lot of a Catholic church off of Powell Road last Spring it was nice to get a Pfizer booster shot at CVS here in the Villages yesterday.

Arm is still sore but doing well.

Much more interesting people-watching at CVS.

I guess I’m just a Moderna man. Got the M shot x 3. All at Publix. No issues.

Same with Stop signs, Traffic lights and Tolls. Not to mention FAA screening, car insurance, building permits.
I’m not so worried about the tracking device implanted with the vaccine.

I too opted to switch over to the Pfizer booster, after having two Moderna shots previously

wife had Pfizer both times before and had no issues....I was down for about 36 hours after my second Moderna shot

Most of the non vaccinated are young and healthy, a group that is low risk anyway.

I had deployments to SE Asia, South America and Mediterranean/Africa each required different vaccine cocktails. It was not political but to protect us from possible serious medical issues.
Like everyone I’ve heard the mumbo jumbo from both sides, if it weren’t for the previous administration fast tracking research our medical system probably been worse outcomes and we would maybe never got out of 2020 alive. I’ll trust science. For me lifesaving surgery in 2020 was delayed from April til August because surgery had been restricted due to the hospital COVID PATIENTS.
I thank my Doctors hospital staff and Science for a wonderful 2021, 2 vaccine doses plus Booster so far so good.

And then!

When we woke up the next morning, we felt great, lots of energy, muscle soreness all gone — and now — we are both really good lookin’ and much smarter, too.

Boosted Boomer :)

Yes, I too got a Moderna booster. Like you guys, my monthly IQ test scores rose significantly (and my wife said that I needed that and now she will talk to me). The booster may have saved my marriage! My motto now is "a boost in time, saves 9" .........IQ points that is.
