Study Finds Prejudice Against COVID-19 Unvaccinated Around the World

What did? Getting the vaccine? Sorry, I am not reading that properly.
Going to the med center, giving them my vaccine records or permission to get them (that was a while ago, so I don't remember,) and then getting the TB test. I think that I had to go home for a day or two and then come back to show them that the test spot wasn't all swelled up. I was TB negative.
 
Oh., Thnx.

We got the two vaccines and the two boosters. Went at good times when they were basically empty and it was under a half hour each time, including waiting for adverse reactions (15 mins) after the shots. We have a nationwide Covid Record system here so we can go there and submit proof of our vaccinations to people like Immigration, Customs, etc. Takes a couple of minutes. We emailed them to ETSA which is the US group that checks foreigners vaccinations records and we will be emailed passes or whatever that will allow us through US Customs when we arrive. It is all incredibly simple.
 
Same here. We get a card that I keep with my work stuff in a ziplock bag. The fields on mine are now filled up with boosters. When first the card is full, you should get a free hamburger or something. I won permission to walk around work onsite without a mask unless I have symptoms of a cold.
 
They did some kind of reward thing here to get people to vaccinate when it first started. The smart people that already were vaccinated got mad and when the next vaccine was ready some waited until that reward was offered again before getting vaccinated. I thought that was stupid and like most people just got the vaccine.

$20 incentive for every vaccination until the end of November

 

People generally dont respect stupid, irresponsible people. Esp. those with the opportunity to educate themselves.
 

?? Those cancers are not spread person to person...so your attempt at analogy fails.
 

Ah, now backpedaling.

It's irresponsible for anyone to present themselves in contact with others if they have a transmissible disease, even colds. There is no vaccine for colds. And when I had to be on site for work, it infuriated me when people with colds, etc were there instead of at home. Esp. parents, because they spread their kid's microbes everywhere.

There is a vaccine for covid which 'reduces' transmissibility and, in conjunction with other measures, helps ensure more protection for others. It may not mean much for most people, but for the vulnerable or those that go home to the elderly/vulnerable...it means LIFE.
 

Are you posting that the covid vaccines didnt make sense, werent logical...both in the decision to develop them and in their distribution?

Are you also of the belief that there were claims the vaccines would be 'silver bullets?' I would like to see sources for this, if so.
 
Its called bigotry

Applied towards intentional behavior? So what? Stupid and irresponsible can be 'fixed,' educated, remedied. If people choose to remain stupid and irresponsible who would respect that?
 
That is just ridiculous. You follow laws and our wives are always right. That is not submission. It just makes sense.

Interesting.
 
Why should you care whether a person vaccinated.
1. Your elderly mom is in the hospital with covid. If the hospital was overwhelmed with unvaccinated people who would not be in the hospital if vaccinated...you moms care would suffer. During heights of tge pandemic medical providers had to decide who got lifesaving equipment and who did not. Meaning your mom might have been one of those that did not get full care.
2. The unvaccinated create a resevoir where more deadly and or infectious variants are more likely to develop. Creating a risk for your family.
3. The unvaccinated are more likely to transmit the disease to one of your loved ones.
4. The unvaccinated that then need medical help create more expense for society resulting in higher insurance premiums for you and your family.
Down the road they are more likely to have expensive organ failures.

All of this is backed by good scientific evidence.
 
Why one is prejudice is irrelevant.
So schools should hire people convicted of child molesting because they should not be prejudiced.?

Your ridiculous false equivalences are maddeningly annoying now
 
Proof of the bolded above. Especially since Covid is over
 
This is how sick the holier than thou vaxxed up people are today. Despicable

 
People believe that those who avoid getting the covid vaccine are endangering their fellow humans.
 
Proof of the bolded above. Especially since Covid is over
Covid won't be over completely until we figure out how to eliminate this kind of virus entirely.

So far, we just know how to control it by vaccinating people against it, and requesting or demanding that those who get it isolate themselves to avoid spreading it.
At this point I expect it may end up like the flu vaccine.
 
kaching, kaching. CVS and Walgreens are pushing it like a cartel.

Were we ever told the shots would be a lifetime deal and our own immune systems would be shot because of it?

That kind of thing is predicting the future.
Notoriously prone to error.
