Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
We are in the "thinning the herd" phase. There is absolutely no excuse for not being vaccinated if you live in an urban area in this country. Those that choose not to be vaccinated are doing so with their "eyes wide open". They are putting vulnerable people with compromised immune systems in danger and placing more burden on the healthcare system. What is even more appalling are the talking heads in the media spreading disinformation about vaccines. Right now it's a pandemic among the unvaccinated. Let's hope it stays contained to that segment of the population.
The trends are certainly disturbing to me. I live in a state that has 39% that is "fully" vaccinated and I don't see this number moving too much. The thing that annoys me is that these holdouts are making things worse for everyone else. I would love to stop wearing masks in the airports and in airplanes...but OH NO...not anytime soon.
DW would like to go to Mexico for a month in Oct/Nov but I am hesitant to pull the trigger on any travel plans because there is no telling where we will be in 3 months.
Unfortunately, the decision to not get vaccinated doesn't just affect them...it effects EVERYONE. It's damn selfish if you ask me. But, no one usually asks me.
