Unfortunately, others will die because of individual choice. It's no longer what you can do for your country. The greater good is nothing more than an afterthought now.

I agree with him...he's right...my wife and I are vaccinated and we recently were positive. Mild symptoms other than wanting to throat punch each other after quarantining together for that amount of time but the vaccine works IMHO. BUT I still think it is up to the individual to make that decision for their body not the governments.

CPL Earl Kochis - I have heard anecdotes on both sides...it has to be a personal choice...but I have had two family members and two friends that were unvaxxed that died. But again, I respect your opinion and your choice...you and only you know what is best for you and yours.

The three of us in this household have had covid back when the outbreak first started. April/May almost 2 years ago. My wife and son both work retail in a maskless state, see people everyday, and for nearly 2 years we've been well and good. Even with customers who later come in and say they just tested positive.

Yes, it is a personal choice. We made ours. We live in a state that does NOT mandate masks. We live in a state that does BAR COMPANIES from letting loose those who do not get vaccinated. And our state barely makes the top 25% for "positive test" rates.

We lost our apt manager and friend due to a covid infection but she didn’t die by Covid she had chronic bronchitis and she succumbed to pneumonia and bronchitis! Sad thing is we all got it from a fully vaxxed resident who refused to stay home and didn’t tell anyone she was Covid positive till after the fact.Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth

Same here... my wife & I got covid prior to any vaccine being approved to use. Thankfully we weren't hospitalized. Glad you're still with us @Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth .

The overwhelming evidence is that the vaccine works and will increase your chance of survival. The short term effect that is known from not getting the vaccine is death.
