Even if you don't think covid can kill ya, why not get the vaccine just to be safe , like the seasonal flu?
Because I'm in a low risk age group, in a low risk environment, and am healthy, I'm content to let more data accrue. It's not at all clear to me that it's a slam dunk, that the various vaccines are all equally good products which sell themselves without coercive tactics to increase adoption. The efficacy and side effects of each are still in question at this early stage, so declaring any and all of them to be the greatest thing ever seems premature to me.
Hey, maybe they're all equally great products and it'll turn out I should have just taken a shot ASAP, but there's simply not any long term data upon which to form that conclusion.
Your circumstances are different than mine. You are old. You are fat. You are sedentary and can't sharpen a chainsaw. You read the risk/benefit differently than I do. I'm fine with you choosing to take the shot. If asked why I'm not taking it, I'll give my reasons but I'm not trying to persuade you. You do you. I do me. Which is as it should be, right? Not me making you do something you don't want to do. Right?
What kind of a single fuck a vaccinated person would give about me being unvaccinated is a mystery to me. You don't need to see my certificate before I sit next to you on the airplane becasue you're protected now. So if you believe in the vaccine, let everyone who wants it get it, then let's open up the world, take a plane to the cruise ship and go out to dinner. Unless, of course, you aren't protected, which kind of erodes the case in favor of vaccination, no?
