    I had my J &J shot the day before they suspended it for a week. It made me tired but not as bad the real covid that laid me out for 1.5 weeks.
    I got covid at Thanksgiving. My son and DIL both tested positive but I didn't bother with a test I just got really sick and laid in a truck stop for 8 days. I got the shot because 1- I'm hoping it keeps me from getting any of the other versions that are more contagious and 2- I am Scott free on masking etc with my get out of jail free card. Going to be handy at the music fest where the 'unproven' have to mask up and stay back but I can just drink a beer and sit near the stage.

    Our government has stated openly there will be no "vaccine passport" for us. Even if there does end up being one they can F right off. My health information is no one's business but my own. I still believe in personal rights and freedoms.

    .if you are actually interested you could look at results from other countries that were more mask wearing and countries that did not mask.

    There's no requirement for a proof of immunization to enter the festival just different behavioural requirements.
    And good for you and your rights and freedoms. Seems a common concern nowadays. Everyone's a stone's throw from being oppressed and victimized. But if/when you get to enrolling your kid in a school and they require a list of immunization for all kids... Are you happy to put your darling mini me in with potential carriers of polio or small pox or???
    These are not new concerns. But history is hard. Maybe even harder than math...

    It's good to see they are not requiring masks if fully vaccinated now in lots of places.

    Or you can simply look at states that removed their mask mandates and didn't see a spike. You know, actually compare two like sources instead of dozens of differences that may or may not contribute.

    If I had kids, they'd have their shots just like I did.

    I just don't see a reason for a Covid vaccination. Its not like Covid carries a high risk of death to anyone who is reasonably healthy.

    Exactly. I don't know about every country out there but maskers pointed to Taiwan and South Korea as evidence masks work but the contact tracing in those two countries is and was light years beyond anywhere else which is probably why they fared so well.

    You have to remember both of those countries have smaller populations overall than the U.S.
    Economics of scale.
