And before anyone labels me as anti-vaccine, I have been fully vaccinated but believe that it is each person's right to decide for themselves if they should get the vaccine or not. Should people with natural immunity also be forced to be vaccinated? If so, for what reason? Does the science say natural immunity is less effective than the vaccines? Neither eliminate the risk of infection but what have the studies shown regarding natural immunity? There should be a choice of either getting the vaccine or routine Covid testing for those that don't want to be vaccinated and to fire the very people (nurses, doctors, law enforcement, etc.) who worked through the pandemic when vaccines weren't available is a disgrace. The argument isn't for their safety, it's for the safety of those around them. If it was just their risk to take then I would agree with you. It's not. It affects everyone around them. The vaccine reduces the risk of spread. And while those who are vaccinated have a reduced risk of severe disease, it does not eliminate it entirely particularly in high risk populations (see Colin Powell, see any pregnant woman). These people took a job with the end goal of increasing the safety and health of those around them. If they choose to take actions antithetical to that goal well then...bye.

Nevertheless, you will find that the progressives who frequent this thread want to do exactly that - fire those heroes that put themselves on the line at the beginning of the pandemic for refusing to take the vaccine.

Bullet wounds aren't contagious. If you get shot on duty, you can't go back to the precinct and give your fellow officers similar bullet wounds just by being in the same room as them. You can't give kids, the elderly, and immunocompromised bullet wounds when you're responding to mundane calls at their homes. And yes, I agree that the choice should be vaccination or frequent testing at their own cost. If they refuse that too, well then they're likely more concerned with ideology than doing the job they signed up for. As for natural immunity, it's highly variable and studies have shown reinfection risk with Delta clearly justifies use of vaccination in those cases too.

In many cases there is a choice for routine testing. In the state of DE that’s the option. Vaxx or testing for state and federal employees. And likewise the private businesses that are requiring vaxx proof also allow for negative test proof. The issue is the right wing nut bags take it to the extreme and act like they’re losing all "Muh freedumbs.” They’re selfish **** that only care about themselves.

The heroes are the nurses, doctors, police officers, etc who are vaccinated and ready to put a foot in the ass of their idiotic colleagues that are prolonging the pandemic. It's the unvaccinated that are flooding the hospitals and causing the staff to burn out. The data is clear on this and only idiots would pretend to frame it in any other context.

Ask Powell that worked out for him. It wasn't the untreated that killed him. It wasn't the lack of quality care. There is absolutely no proof this treatment prevents the spread of anything.

You’re hanging on the words of an eye doctor for what to do about a deadly virus. Do you also take your car to the veterinarian when it needs serviced?

October 21, 20215 yr Oh here’s Your expert on virology grifting from people with their fake activism. These people all look like stable sane people. She was also anti Obamacare because she’s a right wing nut bag Republican from Texas. Go donate to her cause if you’re that hard core of a follower. https://americandoctors4truth.org/about.html
October 21, 20215 yr Why do these idiots desperately cling to ANY information from ANY source, rather than experts in the field? Oh, answered my own question. They are idiots.

Wow, so the vaccines were already wearing off and allowing outbreaks as early as July. I can only imagine how awful they are at preventing infection and transmission now, three months later. Get those boosters, people! lmfao
