I was in an outpost of freedom today. In an area where the fear virus is everywhere with people in the open and alone in parking lots wearing masks, there was one restaurant with a prominent sign stating no masks required. They also had a table for the fallen and a beer drawn for each of them along with crossed American flags.

I’m not “protecting” or “risking” anyone’s health but my own by taking anything. These people are utterly stupid.

I believe we have herd immunity already - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-9952555/CDC-study-estimates-80-Americans-protected-COVID-19.html

RE: I’m not “protecting” or “risking” anyone’s health but my own by taking anything.

That’s not their assumption here.

Here’s what they believe — By NOT taking the vaccine, you are not only risking infection for yourself, you are also by this infection for yours, risking infecting others.

*THAT* is the reason for their forcing the vaccine on you.

Since what are passing for vaccines can’t stop this virus at all, how could it be anything else.

In fact, the reverse could well be true, and these vaccines could make this virus worse for everyone. So who is protecting who’s health?

And if this was a vaccine and prevented infection, that could make sense.

In the real world, it is apparently not true.

We risk the nation allowing collaborative presstitutes to continue to jabber in orchestration with a lying government.

Poll results will obviously outrage the gene twister adherents, which could be the reason why lamestream media is not presenting a more twister-favorable figure.

Sorry, folks. You would have to be living in a free country to have your opinions matter.

You don’t.
You live in America in 2021.

“... Majority Believe Getting Vaccinated Against COVID is ‘Personal Choice’”

There is no ‘belief’ component here. It is an unequivocal right of choice, and that government cannot in any way compel you to wave that right.

Vaccines are no different than Government or your employer holding a bowel of 10,000 Skittles in front of you and telling you that there is ONE Skittle mixed into the others that is deadly-poison. So, in order to go on with your life or keep your job... you are required to choose 1 Skittle from the bowel and eat it. Do you think any employee or citizen would take that 1 in 10,000 chance that they might pick the deadly Skittle? No WAY!

Vaccines can kill you! And sometimes the cure is deadlier than the disease!

The job of government IS NOT to save lives, but instead to provide guidance in times of a health threat so we can choose our own course of action/protection! The job of government is to PROTECT our liberty and freedom FROM government overreach and abuse; to protect our natural rights and the privileges guaranteed to each of us by the constitution! And to defend and protect us FROM THOSE who would interfere with and subvert the free exercise of those rights and privileges. Which means protecting us from the fascist dictates of power-tripping governors, health official clowns and the disinformation fear mongering propaganda they parrot in order to take advantage of a crisis for the purpose of stripping peoples civil liberties and controlling them like sheep.

Do not submit to a FORCED vaccine! You have an absolute right to reject it.

Glad to see this. Husband and I are both on board with this - it’s a personal choice!

It is a vaccine and it prevents infection. However it is not perfect. Before the Delta variant it did that pretty well. However now it is showing itself to be a lot less useful. The data for the UK (99% delta) shows a lot better than nothing for >= 50 years old but actually worse than nothing for < 50. Looks to me like the younger and healthier someone is, the more that they skip this vaccine.

The virus is not being stopped anywhere by these “vaccines”.

I saw another article, today, that mentioned that the only Polio to occur (I think in the U.S.) since 1961, was from the vaccine, itself.

That is a vaccine that stops a virus. Only failure of the vaccine, itself, was left to infect anyone.

That is not what is happening here, at all. The vaccinated appear to be getting sick, I believe, as you say, from Delta, and they are infectious. Israel is about to try a Hail Mary of repeating a dose of a vaccine which does not work against the Delta variant they now face.

These vaccines are not only not perfect, I believe they are a menace. The virus will be driven to something worse by vaccination which does nothing but piss it off. Look up Marek’s Disease in poultry for a heads-up.

You are anthropomorphizing. The virus mutates all the time with variants selected by natural and vaccine-based immunity. We don't yet know all the mechanics of how natural immunity works. But natural immunity seems to work better https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.08.24.21262415v1.full.pdf than vaccine-based immunity. I just saw this paper for the first time tonight.

The virus is not being stopped anywhere by these “vaccines”.

They create antibodies and they make infection with the old strains less likely. Just 20k breakthrough in 4.5 million vaccinated in Mass https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/heres-how-many-fully-vaccinated-mass-residents-have-tested-positive-for-covid/2481272/. However the hospitalization rate is high, at 21% of new breakthrough cases. I'm certainly keenly aware that ADE may contribute to worse disease, but the main impact of vaccines is still to reduce infection even with delta.

I know that’s they’re assumption. That’s why I made my statement. Transmission has nothing to do with whether you’re vaccinated or masked, because neither prevent virus transmission.
