    Common sense no longer exists.
    .
    I disagree. I think you would have some common sense if you ride around in your car without a mask on. In the city I live in I see numb nuts riding around by themselves with a mask on and some times with the mask under their chins in a store.

    Refusing the Vax is your option. Think back when the polio vaccine came out, did everyone doubt the results? I sure didn’t I took the vaccine like most of us in here.

      It has long been said that there are three kinds of lies: Lies; Damned Lies and Statistics.

      By cherry picking the numbers you can usually prove anything that you want. This article is a good example

      There is no doubt that some people who were never vaccinated will never get COVID and there is no doubt that some people who are fully vaccinated will get COVID and die from it (including a friend of ours who died last week after getting COVID in the hospital)

      There is also no doubt that by getting fully vaccinated you significantly improve your chances of not getting COVID and of not having major problems if you do get it,

      Just remember that over one million people in the USA have died from COVID and that over five million have died overall. You don't have to get vaccinated but if you want to push the statistics in your favor you will get vaccinated.

      Speaking as a retired personal financial planner allow me to suggest that those of you who choose not to get vaccinated should ensure that your wills are up to date - just in case

        The Polio vaccine was well tested before it went into production.
        These covid vaccines were rushed into production with almost no testing,
        much like Thalidamide and the tragegy that caused.

            Polio vaccine killed due to poor manufacturing.

              Ahh... the polio vaccine has a skeleton in the closet. Keep in mind people get sloppy. People make mistakes. And they are after the dollar. We learn from that. I was lucky to have flown as much as I have and never was in a plane crash. I feel even better about it these days except for the bad behavior that I think requires banning for life. Some advice from an old sailor friend, eat yer spinach.
              If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.
