I had to tell a vaxxer this week that I was uncomfortable working for her because she did the social whirl thingee last week - a wedding and a graduation.

I didn't say it [that vaxxers take unnecessary risks, and we don't know where the breakthroughs are coming from], but pointed out that it was a lot of people whose status was unknown to me [and to her].

Recent studies indicate that skiers wearing helmets go faster on average than non-helmeted skiers, and that overall risk index is higher in helmeted skiers than non-helmeted skiers.

Wouldn't that be a kick in the head, if the vaccinated folks become less risk-averse and get injured relatively more frequently and harshly than the unvaxxed control Group?

Immunocomprimised but still got the shot? Uh, I have an auto immune issue but don’t plan on getting the shot regardless. Never considered it from when it was first announced. And, if the vac is so wonderful, possibly preventing someone from getting a disease with a 99.5% survival rate................ Well, maybe they should leave in in God’s hands. What fidiots!

If she’s that worried about the virus, maybe just go to the Justice of the Peace and get married, if there is still such an official with that title.

“I’m not being a bridezilla,” she says. “It’s a safety risk.”

There’s under a 1% chance of dying of Covid. There’s a 50% chance of divorce.

Thanks! That was very informative...and concerning.

So at the reception, there will likely be a LOT of females who won’t be able to find a dance partner.

This is wonderful, one less excuse I need to think up to avoid attending weddings. It’s like a ‘Get out of Jail’ Free card to me!

After all, the groom’s father, who is vaccinated against covid-19 but immunocompromised, needed to be sure he could safely attend..

If he’s vaccinated, why is he concerned?

And if they suspect that the vaccine does not confer sufficient immunity, why demand everyone else get it? Or why expect vaxxed people to be safe themselves?

And how do they assure that he does not encounter someone out in public who is not vaxxed?

What about someone who had it and is actually immune? After all, isn’t the idea supposed to be that a person is immune rather than vaxxed?

I have sorted my friends and family based upon their response to everything that happened in the last year. I would never attend such a discriminatory wedding and I would never speak to them again either.

If they don’t want me there, then they are not getting a gift either.

Sending out invites like that and expecting gifts anyways just screams *Gold digger*.

““Alternatively, don’t go to their wedding if you don’t want to get the shot.
Simple, no drama.”
Exactly. Send a gift (Maybe along with a box of mask), a card and let it be.”

I would thank them for the warning that there would be nothing but vaxxers there and decline stating I definitely want to avoid being in a group of shedders.
I don’t give gifts to vax Nazis that only have a two year life expectancy.

1957 Scientists isolate a series of Simian (monkey) viruses and discover that these same viruses contaminate polio vaccines. SV-40 found in both Sabin and Salk polio vaccines. (made since early ’50s), Information not made public.

And what are the consequences of that?

Safety risk? What about the people at the reception who drink heavily?

Oh, the happy couple will laugh as old Uncle Charley and Aunt Matilda stumble to their car and plow into a bus, sighing "well, at least they were vaccinated."

Lol. Exactly.

If they truly care about safety, no alcohol would be served. The music being played will be low volume.

When the dictates of the State outweigh all other considerations.

So she’s “outing” her own parents, announcing to all they are not good comrades.
