I don't understand what all the opposition to the vaccine is. It may not be perfect just as all the others aren't. The reality is getting the vaccine reduces the chance of contracting the disease and if you do catch it chances are you won't have a severe case. Here in VT approximately 80% have the jab and our Covid numbers have been among the best in the country. Even so our ICU's are full of non vaccinated Covid patients. Take the obvious political bias out of this and just consider the medical facts. Fighting against something that will help you doesn't make sense to me.
Where are you getting "the facts"?
I don't believe our local news reporting on "full ICU due to Covid" like their hair is on fire. The reports I get from my nurse friends within the same hospital system tell the story quite differently.
Full ICU here is 20 beds...but they fail to mention it, leaving you to think it's much more. They just tell you to run to get vaxed.
Echoing flintlocke, the hospitals and clinics are getting a pile of money for covid patients. It's become so obvious, the locals in our little county won't bother going into the clinic here. The clinic doesn't even want to deal with you unless you test positive.
And anyone that spouts off with, "the FDA approved it" can stick it. Look at all the drugs that went through the FDA that took years to get approved now have horrible effects and class action suits. But a vax gets approved in mere months..no thanks. And I definitely wouldn't want it injected into young children.
