Hahahahah even conservatives making personal medical decisions they'll ****in blame on Biden.

You guys are going to Darwin yourselves out of existence and whine about it being everyone else's fault.
 
Hadn't heard of it being an issue until cnn told us it is.
 
I don't believe in the mark of the beast.

But maybe doctors and hospitals need everyone who is an antivaxxer/anti-science to get the following tattoo so they'll know not to give them any medicine when they have cancer and stuff...

The annual flu shot was never a partisan issue. But now it is, apparently. How did his happen?

The story started because Trump was worried Covid’s effect on the economy was going to make him look bad, and so he downplayed it. It is in spite of knowing that it was a lethal pandemic, and he is on tape admitting it. But he, with the help of Fox News, got his base thinking it’s no worse than the common cold. American lives or not worth her appearance of being weak on the economy. Who shuts down the economy or gets a vaccine because of something that’s no worse than the common cold, right?

Downplaying Covid and not getting the vaccine became almost a marker of tribal identity for Trump supporters. People in Trump supporting areas were afraid to tell family and friends that they were getting the vaccine for fear of being ostracized. It’s just not what good decent people do. Getting the Covid shot for the Trump cult has become like eating pork for Muslims or something.

Well, now this has taken on a life of its own. It is really growing beyond Covid to be a general anti-vax position as standard dogma of the cult. Getting the annual flu shot was never a partisan issue before. Now polls are showing it is. So it looks like Trump supporters us survive Covid are going to be taking it on the chin with the flu this year. This whole Trump cult is really turning into a suicide death cult.

Analysis: Flu shots uptake is now partisan. It didn't use to be

Uptake of the Covid-19 vaccine has, unfortunately, become partisan like so much else in our society... An examination of flu shot data suggests that which party people belong to is highly correlated with whether they have or will get a flu shot...

Forget about "flu" and take a look at "Measles resurgence in the USA: how international travel compounds vaccine resistance" (from The Lancet). This is a disease that "targets" the young and the anti-vaxxers do NOT want children protected from it.
