More than three-quarters of Americans still feel there’s at least some risk from the COVID-19 pandemic in attending July Fourth celebrations — with four in 10 believing the threat is moderate to high, according to a new poll.

Some 77 percent of respondents in an Axios-Ipsos poll ranked the celebrations as posing at least a small risk, with less than a quarter — 23 percent — maintaining there was no risk at all.

I hate people. Show many friends and family showed their true colors last year when covid hit. My Aunt was the worst telling me I will kill people if I don't wear a mask and that I should shut up and listen to expert's. Have not spoken to her since Aoril 2020.

How did they feel about the risks of attending the "peaceful protests" that went on for many months?

I don’t believe this for a second. No more than I believe poll numbers or approval ratings.

There is a high likelihood there will be more alcohol related incidents than covid related incidents.

“I hate people.”

The older I get, the more I hate them. Actually, I don’t really mind people... it’s stupid that I hate. Unfortunately, there is an abundance of stupid in many people.

Statistically, half of these people are below average intelligence. AND they’re allowed to vote and breed.

My July 4th gathering with 20 family members will be just fine. We don’t bring guns to our party, and we will be out in the country, so I think we will be safe.

Typically many Family gatherings are risky. I avoid them when I am able.

July 4th 2020, my wife went to a small Texas town and gathered with a bunch of people to watch a parade. There were politicians giving speeches and had some great bbq.

Last year.

“More than three-quarters of Americans still feel there's at least some risk from the COVID-19 pandemic in attending July Fourth celebrations . . .”

How does that compare with the number of people who were fearful of getting together for June 19?

We’re having our awesome parade which of course was cancelled last year.

To Hades with the Branch Covidians.

Exactly my same view.
