Why are those that are vaccinated getting angry at those that aren't or wont?

I will give you a simple science story. Viruses mutate, and when people do not get vaccinated, they contribute to the spread of various versions of the virus. Eventually, the mutations may become resistant to the vaccines, and they will infect those who have been vaccinated.

Why is it so difficult for you to understand this simple fact?

Yes, and they try to keep track of the most common mutations.

You're like a super specimen. Good for you. The rest of us are not. But, I don't know how this "fact" is even remotely related to the question you asked. The question was:

You're a mere mortal, just like myself. Unlike the OP, who's a magnificent flu-resistance humans specimen.

@Northwest But when viruses mutate they are less deadly, the viruses become weaker... even though they can be spread more easily.

@Jimmy2016 Tell that to the new more deadly variant that’s ripping through Brazil
