Let me get this right.

If you have been given both shots then you are "STILL" afraid if someone else has the 99% survivable flu virus????

~~~

Of course you and everyone else in our wonderful country has freedom of choice. If it is your choice not to be vaccinated, so be it. You just may have difficulty in the future with airline travel or getting on a cruise ship just to name a couple of things.

But,but,but. The good "doctor" says even when vaccinated, you should wear two masks, not one.

MUCH of America will simply wait for Fauci to give the thumbs up/Green Light as to Herd Immunity. He has lost so much credibility in many folks views, including ours. He's still on the 'double-mask' kick. And 6ft distance. And NOT leading a charge to OPEN schools. He's a guest on so many talk shows and Cable networks. Seems to LOVE the adoration and public image. But when the TOUGH questions come up, as in the Senate panel yesterday, he repeats the same old stuff with cautions of 'prepare to wear masks into 2022'. I recall months ago when he stated that we will need 70-75% vaccinated to reach Herd Immunity. If that IS A FACT - we NEVER WILL, as it appears that 40% won't get the shot, for whatever (dumb) reason.

We got our 2 Moderna's, and will still mask-up where needed, follow simple precautions - But we have a life to live, and have travel planned within the USA mid-year, and will certainly cruise early 2022. The threats of "Severe Covid Speader events" - when they really don't happen is getting old. And the White House statement that we may be able to be with family to celebrate July 4th... stop already... Look at the data - the TRUE data. How long has FLORIDA been belittled by the Media and many in D.C.??? I could go on, but will have to stop.

Governor DeSantis already said "no to vaccine passports" although other states may implement it.

I do not live in those "other states". Nor do I visit them either.

It’s not a vaccination against a virus. It is gene therapy. Completely different. Research and DD.

My understanding of the variants is they are more easily transmitted but not as deadly, at least according to at least one study I saw. Don't recall where I saw it, sorry.

Most virus mutations go this route. Easier to transmit, less deadly. There are more deadly variants but they kill the host, so don't spread and usually have an R-naught of less than one, so ultimately die off.

Where did you get that information?

Thank you, what I do with my health is my business and only my business...people and their hysteria will not be making my healthcare decisions...nor knowing it..

Herd Immunity
 

How accurate can the Sumter County numbers be if so many of us were vaccinated in other counties? Sumter was way too late in getting their act together, while Lake, Marion and Orange counties were getting it done. I’m quite confident the numbers are much greater for Sumter residents.

I disagree and would love to see mandatory vaccinations for cruises and flying. Its nothing new. Been going on for decades. Your kids can NOT attend school without having certain vaccinations. Why is that good for kids but not good for you to get vaccinated during a pandemic where hundreds of thousands have died?? There is a difference between divulging an illness and making vaccines mandatory to fly. HIV statement is totally unrelated. Would you sit next to someone on a plane who is coughing n sneezing all over without using a tissue?? NO. So, why would you feel its ok to sit next to someone who may be carrying a fatal virus?? Think about it!!

It has not leveled out. Their are well over 1,000 new seniors getting the vaccine every day.
