We will be living with this pandemic indefinitely unless people start getting vaccinated. Will you get vaccinated?

I think that's BS. Don't get me wrong, I'm vaccinated. But I have no issue if someone makes another choice and decides for them the vaccine is not appropriate. And no one else should either. We all take a risk with this stupid China virus.

The people who took it weighed the risk of taking it versus getting China-virus. They chose to get vaccinated. But others did the same thing and came up with a different choice. They went through the identical thought process. Only their choice was different. And it shouldn't matter. If you're vaccinated, then you're safe right? So lay off.

The real "misinformation" here are the people who refuse to accept the choice of a free person to make. I think you should all be censored for the constitutional dangers you are promoting. No question. Your rhetoric is dangerous and unwarranted. You're putting free speech at risk. WTF is wrong with you?

See how that works?

@MrBrownstone Not holding my breath.. LOL
@carpediem so 65% of disinformation traced to 12 sources doesn’t bother you?
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@carpediem I know. People hate when they can’t control others.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@JonLosAngeles66 How do I know that is a fact? I need to do research? Or take your word for it? Maybe you're one of the 12.

It doesn't matter. People are responsible to make their own choice. Then live with it. It's called freedom.

@carpediem He’s the type”everything he reads online is true,everything you read online is fake” type

@MrBrownstone I didn't want to buy into that theory. But I must admit, that appears to be what's left when it all boils down.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@MrBrownstone Don't know him/her, but for LOTS of people that's very true.

@carpediem All our information on coronavirus came from 2 people.

@MrBrownstone all of my friends who are doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals would beg to differ
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@JohnRing So would mine

@MrBrownstone For me, it was a ridiculous clusterf**k. I bought into it at first. My wife is high risk. We locked down, bought toilet paper, and waited for the bodies to pile up outside on the street like everyone else. But after a short time, I was out doing business again. We did get the vaccine largely due to her risk issues. It was a crap shoot. I'm happy to say so far so good. But since then the recommendations have been all over the place. They don't know what to do. They're guessing.

But I know others who chose not to get stabbed. Their reasoning is sound and I see why they chose it. It was based, like mine, on personal conditions. For others to whine about their choice is ridiculous.

@carpediem Excellent response. BC.

@Magenta Thank you. 😷

@carpediem Think about your mail. Lots of people handling it all over the country. Same with packages. Not one person dropped dead from it
carpediem · 61-69, M
@JohnRing Prove it. Prove that you first have friends, second prove they're all medical professionals, and third prove that they told you to beg to differ. Otherwise, misinformation. Censorship time.

@MrBrownstone Delivery people working their tales off keeping us fed, clothed and the economy running. Teachers sitting on their butts refusing to go to school even after being first in line for the vaccine. Who was an essential worker again?
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@carpediem Baseball,football,hockey and basketball played during a deadly pandemic
JohnRing · 56-60, M
@MrBrownstone not sure what your pints are. The virus is spread by exposure to droplets and aerosol not on surfaces. And plenty of athletes have contracted Covid. Them having a low death rate is more to do with overall good health, age and access to top notch healthcare.
carpediem · 61-69, M
@MrBrownstone LOL... well, unfortunately sports are dead to me. The people who run it have turned off of it to the degree I no longer care about their crap product. The "athletes" didn't help either. Look at all the extra time I have!
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@JohnRing So why was playing the sports neccassary?
carpediem · 61-69, M
@MrBrownstone and pass the hand sanitizer and surgical gloves. Proof they don't know what to do

@carpediem Your responses to this subject are probably the most mature ones ever found on this forum. It is refreshing :)
CestManan · 46-50, F
@MrBrownstone That was back when we had anthrax (speaking of mail)
carpediem · 61-69, M
@CestManan Thank you. Much appreciated
