    Good question, but not sure there is a good answer. I suppose it depends on the severity of the illness and the health status of the individual.

    Fair enough, but why? Why the need to work so hard to get it out so quick for such a mild illness? That makes it questionable to me.

    If all of my friends and family and neighbors were dropping dead around me instead of just getting the sniffles, I might be more compelled to believe the narrative. But I don’t see any of that.

    I guess because people are still dying and they feel like they should at least try to help.

    Well that’s fine, let the people who are at risk of dying take the shot if they want to. But this nonsense we are being fed about their vaccine doesn’t work unless I get one needs to stop. Never in my lifetime have I seen something so nonsensical get so widely accepted.

    You're chances of getting an adverse reaction including dying as direct result of the vaccine are higher vs no vaccine.

    Don't forget MRNA is new technology.
    Can anyone point me to Long term safety studies of getting endless mrna boosters.

    Go ahead try to find them, they don't exist.

    I agree with you 100%. You should only get the Vaccine if you want it but if you don’t have it then you shouldn’t be allowed in the hospital. I’m more than happy with people making their own decisions but they should also know they could possibly have consequences with it. I think at the end of the day some number cruncher looked at the number of people that could end up with double or triple the hospital stay over someone who might be home on the couch with it. I wouldn’t want to be hit with a 3 week stay and ventilator bills if you were unlucky enough to not have benefits.

    Now that you got me going, let’s take your bridge analogy a step further. My problem isn’t so much that they are building the bridge too quickly, it’s that they are building a bridge over a puddle and telling us the puddle is actually a river. Then they say if we don’t drive on this new bridge they just built, we will drown in the river that is actually a puddle. Then a few months later they say, if you don’t drive on the bridge, then everyone who is driving on the bridge will fall off and drown. This whole time the news shows us footage of people drowning in an actual river. Then the businesses on the other side of the bridge start telling us, if you didn’t take the new bridge to get here then you can’t come in. Then the schools start telling us our kids can’t come to school unless they walk across the bridge. And so on...

    Meanwhile, this whole time, it was just a little puddle under the bridge. Yes, it is possible to drown in that puddle if you lie down in it. And those people who would lie down in the puddle, they can and should take the bridge.

    Have to love forcing legal border crossers to be vaccinated. But not requiring the illegal ones to get the vaccine to stay. Hypocrisy much?

    Pull your panties out of your Crack,it’s cutting off your circulation. “Your guy’s” / All Americans living in America. If you don’t have healthcare / benefits to fall back on you could be in trouble.

    Let's clarify a couple things. Based on your logic. Anyone who's overweight, doesn't exercise, has smoked or drank, done drugs, or broke a traffic law. Should not be treated. Since it's their fault in the first place. Stupid logic. I'm glad doctors don't have such dumb ideas.

    Second. If yours guy's health care is so much better. Then why are always coming to the states for treatment. Instead of waiting for months up there?
