Yea I’m frankly tired of hearing from the authoritarian agoraphobes. The ones that air their resentment of returning to “normal life.” Dumb stuff like getting dressed or not working from bed.
I also heard Kamala Harris say that she'd never get vaccinated if Trump says to get vaccinated, cause he'd been rushing it to approval. And now you hear in the news rumblings about all the "vaccine hesitant" Trump…

So it stands to reason that if the vaccine were effective, after the vaccine blitzkrieg that's going on now, the vulnerable should be ok.
I'm in the same boat, I'm not against vaccination either. I've taken every vaccine offered, I get the yearly flu vaccine and even went out of my way for the HPV vaccine.
