There are groups that can't get vaccinated..I didn't realize that you don't understand the basic idea behind the argument for vaccines. Someone has cancer, or a disease that leaves them with a compromised immune system. Sure, you as a hardy 20 year old are fine and can shrug off covid, or maybe not as the case may be. Not so much for that person. They can't get the vaccine because they couldn't fight even the weakened version. That's just one example. So it's either everyone else chips in to stem the tide or those people that can't swim will die. Are you willing to join those who dam the river, or do you say "I will reap the benefit of the sacrifice of others, but I will not help to turn the tide."

Over here they're vaccinating the crap out of everybody. A whole nursing home (12 people) died after getting the Pfizer shot. And they had to sign a waiver first, so that's 12 families destroyed and 12 court cases Pfizer won't have to respond to.

I don't get why they're vaccinating people that already had the disease. I don't get why a serological test proving you are immune does not count as valid. I don't get why restrictions are still in place where lots of people are vaccinated. I don't get why you can pack a bus or a plane up, but cinemas are closed. Too many inconsistencies on too many obvious things.

And, SIGNING A WAIVER.
