Why should people be forced to get the vaccine in order to protect others who choose not to get it?

    40-60 percent seems pretty useless to me. Do we know how much the COVID vaccines reduce the risk of illness by?

    I would say 40 to 60% of several million is far from pretty useless.

    Do we know what percentage of transmissions the covid vaccine is said to prevent?

    IT's a known scientific fact that the miracle Covid non-vaccines are deactivated in the presence of the unvaccinated....:banana:

    That's actually pretty much true in actual fact. We are going to let a vaccine resistant mutation pop up right under our noses and kill us all because a bunch of the purest ****** *******s imaginable think their FFFREEEDDOOMMM to ****ing die for no rational reason whatsoever is worth the lives of our (and their) grandparents, children and finally themselves. Like I just said, ever even HEAR of anything like this?

    Then you're a radical. Why do you care if someone isn't vaccinated?

    I have no idea. Do we know how much the COVID vaccines reduce the risk of illness by? It can't be as low as 40% surely!

    You keep talking about it effects ON the illness AFTER you contract it....I'm talking about a key aspect of a genuine vaccine....The ability to prevent you from ever getting it TO BEGIN WITH!

    Look up the definition of a vaccine and see for yourself.

    You mean the below post? If so, you were clearly referring to illness.

    7.1 mil out of 330 mil looks to me like the President needs a stronger flu vaccine campaign.

    People have the choice to defend themselves against COVID. Why should they be forced to defend themselves against COVID?

    Vaccination, masks, social distancing, etc. slow the spread of COVID.

    The result of following these protections (for the US and the world) lowers death rates, reduces risks to first responders and caregivers, and reduces the opportunity for mutations that can increase the threat.

    Tell me the truth. Did you seriously not know that?

    cause a vaccine is not a condom for the body, it tries to train the immune system to fight the virus if you do catch it
