It’s really simple, smart people are vaccinated, unless they have a real medical issue. Stupid people refuse to get vaccinated, because they are stupid. It really is that simple.
The one on the left doesn’t need to worry about dying from Delta, the one on the right? Not so much. Why should those who have taken actions to protect themselves and others be punished because of those that didn’t, Baghdad Bok?
Chip makes a valid point. Getting back to the workplace brings with it problems along with putting the business in the black. How comfortable will we be when our neighbor is not jabbed and therefore, safe? Though retired, I’m facing the same problem with the question of whether to return to the volunteer concert band I play with. The band is now considering requiring vaccination for attendance. But, the leadership appears hesitant. Sad.
Well, yes. One is potentially toxic, and CERTAINLY foolish.
Almost 100% of the people hospitalized with COVID are unvaccinated. There are EIGHT ICU beds left in the entire state of Arkansas. Eight. People who have had heart attacks, cancer, sepsis, can’t get a hospital bed because of these fools.
What do you EXPECT me to think of someone who decides that he’d rather risk death for himself and his family than put up with a pinprick? Am I supposed to pretend that that’s intelligent?

So now Baghdad Bok claims to believe that political polarization is a bad thing?????
When all his cartoons are meant to maximize polarization?

Chip, as a Trump Disciple, you may not have noticed, but anti-vaxxers are the reason for most of the current covid deaths.
Breaking News: Gov. Kate Brown (D-OREGON) this morning mandated masks required in all public establishments starting this Friday, the 13th of August, 2001. Oregon has 70% of the population vaccinated already so that leaves 30% . . . guess which political party they might be and who they watch on TV religiously.
That it is felt to be necessary shows the ignorance of the population. Not just in Paris. Proof of vacination should required to enter all public places. Totalitarian, sure, but the ignorance of some people make it a necessary safe guard.

There’s an obvious solution, it’s free, it’s smart, it’s healthy, and Bok and his clique think it’s anti-American.
Though even with vaccination, the Delta variant means that folks should probably go back to social masking.

Also, the ever present noise, the constant interruptions, and the total lack of privacy.

Next everyone will be required to show their vaccine card in order to buy or sell. I wonder where the 666 will be printed.

Anyone notice the resemblance to “Walking Dead” scripts. Zombies attack people for having brains. Xvax attack people for having brains.
