Ohio’s Mike DeWine created the “Vax-A-Million” lottery to entice anti vaxers to get vaccinated. You know money talks these days and thousands were vaccinated in one weekend. 5, one million dollar prizes and 5, fully paid tuition, books, housing for students! Hey! Whatever works for some ….
It’s a ‘participation award" for those who got vaccinated and didn’t have to pay $150.00 to get a participation trophy and eat pizza. Our entire family got vaccinated on Cinco de Mayo. No, we didn’t go out for tacos or pizza. Got Chinese take-out.
Tam is pointing out that #45 caused most of the problem with the perception of the covid virus and then proposed much later, a response which did not speed up anything as the vaccines were already close to being finished.
the world seems to be getting back to “normal” what with mass murders in the US and still another Arab/Israeli “conflict”. Along with other inter-religious wars Muslim; Sunni v Shia Christian: Catholic v Protestant in Ireland, Mormons v everyone, Catholicism v every other Christian sect. Evangelical (aka anti-christian)v traditional sects. Southern Baptist Convention v every other Christian sect that has actually read the Bible and adheres to its principles
It’s a comforting thought (NOT!) to know that all the anti-vaxxers,non-vaccinated ALREADY have taken their masks off and will be happy to show you their Made-At-Home vaccine cards…….
Another plus under the Biden/Harris Administration. But the “Chump” supporters will claim that ‘Big Orange’ should get credit for it. But we with common sense, knows that this Administration is for the American working class and the rest of the Americans that were neglected from the last four years.

That is NOT being a hero. Though it is being smart, helpful, brave (in some circumstances) and most of the other Boy Scout ideals.

Wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, getting vaccinated – what will state and federal governments impose on citizens next … /s

Without accurate data on how vaccinations work against the B16172 strain, congratulations might be premature.

The honor system would probably have worked if the country had not been conditioned to believe lying is okay for the last four years.

That’s what I need: a medal. Maybe the vaccination sites can start handing out medals when one has been given the second dose.

Is this a US medal? Cause it looks a lot like a French one to me…

@Clay Bennett – If that means you received two shots you are no hero…maybe smart. You can thank DJT for warp speed.

I did not need a metal or even the fully vaxed card, just the same feeling of relief that I experienced 75 years when I got my first polio vax.

I’m fully vaxed, but why would anyone want to be a submarine sandwich for Covid?
