Mask mandate (Page 8): We are seeing Darwin's theory of natural selection taking place. Many of those who refuse to get vaccinated are being eliminated from the gene pool.

Your body your choice? ------------- Not by putting others at risk by you spreading what you might have. It's not about you, it's about consideration for others. My son in-law didn't wear a mask, then infected my son who didn't wear a mask. My son in-law is dead, my son survived and now wears a mask. LESSON LEARNED. We are fighting two pandemics, Covid and Stupidity, it'snot about your rights, it's about survival for all. Just what does it take to learn this people?

So sorry for your loss, and the worry you must have felt for your son. I completely agree with you, it completely blows my mind, how ignorant and selfish some people are! It's like they fell out of the "stupid tree", and hit every branch on the way down.

As fanatics, the hold-outs against vaccination for the Chinese killer virus (and its variant) remain not subject to reason.

In turn, these hold-outs care not that their refusal of vaccination may infect innocent others.

As well, they fail to see that vaccination presents a matter of the public health across the nation. We have other vaccines, like for polio and the annual flu, for that purpose.

Consider that children must get nearly a dozen vaccinations against disease as a condition of attendance.

Vaccination has proved safe and effective for immunizing humans against disease.

Rightly, leadership has begun taking measures to impose vaccination nationwide to stop the latest deadly virus.

Yes, 75% is a lie. It is really more like 90-92% of the cases in the last few months have been in unvaccinated people. You may not like facts or deny facts and that is your choice.

I have seen, from several sources, that it is 90-92% of unvaccinated have been catching covid. This is such a telling statistic that anybody who still resists vaccination have any, or all, of the following problems -
1. They are plain stupid.
2. You couldn't convince them of anything even with proof.
3. They really get a kick out of taking a path different than others.
4. Just plain ignorant.
5. Possibly latent pyschopath because they have no empathy for others.
And I have to think that the most unlucky person in this world would end up in or before a jury composed of 12 of the above (11 in the case of in).

If you want to stay in and hide from virus i welcome that and if you want to socialize I dont judge that either. You want wear a mask your choice or maskless im fine with that also. Just ask one question, if the vaccine works and you have it why are you still scared. Just as many people with vaccine if not more are catching the virus...hmm...remember just my thoughts. Am I right I dont know but soon the facts wont be hidden by gov't and we may all see we were fooled.

I have had a hard time trusting the political system since the TET of 68. Then too it is hard to trust those that lie more often than not and seem more motivated by agenda than facts.
Then too many only know what CNN tells them.

. They are hurting others by spreading the Corona virus to others, infecting them ,and potentially killing them or causing them to incur horrendous medical bills and/or disability. Many spreaders are assymptomatic. If mass are ineffective, ask your surgeon and surgical crew to discard them during your next family members surgery. Tell them you don’t believe in surgical gloves either. Your point of view is inaccurate and backed by fools. Be safe, get vaccinated and wear your mask. I wear every all day. Long along with surgical gloves at my clinic. Too many fools coming in with “sinus problems” testing positive for Covid. We have had mother’s refuse to get children with suspected Covid , so their kid wouldn’t miss the football game on Friday night. Exposing scores of others in the meantime. People are insane with this situation.

Selfish to make a choice about my what drug goes into my body. Ok...i mask up when needed and obey all laws to keep from spreading. You dont know if i had the shot or not. I believe everyone has the right to choose. This is not China. I respect everyone's choice. Their bodies their choices.

You don’t need to wear a mask or get the vaccine but then stay home. Your behavior could infect other people with the virus. Also if you get sick, will you go to a hospital and expect doctors ,nurses and staff to treat you? You could infect them. Also your taking up a bed that a heart patient or other person might need. People are dying or postponing life saving treatment because of lack of beds due to the virus. No person is an island we live as a community. We routinely get vaccinated for other diseases get vaccinated against covid.

The irresponsibility of vaccine hold-outs potentially violates the public health and safety. The hold-outs ignore this side of their conduct.

“The willfully unvaccinated are covid-19’s enablers,” Gene writes. “They are giving the virus an enormous supply of potential hosts, allowing it to thrive and evolve — perhaps someday in a way that evades the vaccines. They are filling intensive-care hospital beds and keeping beleaguered doctors and nurses under constant, and unnecessary, siege. They are prolonging a crisis that we have the resources to get under control.”
