One of our drivers got it, weeks in ICU on a ventilator, oxygen for a few more, finally back to work, he wont be the same either.
He gave it to one of the local drivers, he barely got a sniffle, but he took it home to his mother in law, she died. He has to live with it.
I dont want it. I got the jab, and I'll take any booster they offer.peterd, liner and Garththomas Thank this. -

Do people understand that all of our current vaccines are not mandatory? Yes. You have to get them if you want to go to PUBLIC school. But you can home school, get a job, go to a restaurant...etc. All without a vaccine. So trying to use the well established vaccines as an example. Doesn't hold water.
Second argument. Trying to save lives. Anyone seen the commercials for the HIV pills/shots? They will keep an infected person from transmitting HIV to another person. Do you see the government mandating its use by all HIV positive people? But we all know that HIV kills 100% of its victims. So saving lives. Doesn't hold water.
I've said it before. I got vaccinated. I'm living with my mom and she is compromised and has health issues that would kill her. I chose to take the "coin flip" chance. To lower the risk to her. But it was my CHOICE.
If I was still in the truck and not getting chemo treatment. I'd not have gotten it. No reason to get it. I'm alone. Don't interact with large groups and if I did catch it. I could have self isolated.
The government, prior to the mandate, was doing the right thing and encouraging people to get it. Many people would have probably gotten it that are refusing to now.
Why? Because when the government starts to take away your personal freedom and rights. Such as the executive branch is trying. You have to use the judicial branch to get them back in line.
So debating whether the vaccine works or helps you is really a mute point. It's a matter of protecting yourself from an overreaching government.
I support anyone who got the vaccines for their health. I'm sickened by anyone that got it due to the mandate. -
So I asked him what his reason was six months ago when nobody was telling him to. He got an odd look on his face, lol.
I disagree with the mandates but anyone who's using the 'you can't tell me what to do' excuse is fos imo.
Just say you don't think it works, or you're scared of needles or whatever the real reason is.Elroythekid Thanks this. -
So all of the people that were on the fence before the mandate. Became no forced vaccine after the mandate.
