I don’t really care if you are vaccinated or not 💉

I am pretty sure there were leftists everywhere that all but celebrated the news that certain organ donor recipients aren’t well protected by the COVID vaccine. It rewarded their ideology that says everybody should get vaccinated to protect the vulnerable and the common good. Mainly because it’s a great way to rub salt into the eyes of individualists and libertarians, not because they really care that much about public health.

I am not saying don’t get the COVID-19 vaccine. I got my two shots of the Pfizer vaccine and while that second shot was miserable with the side effects I like knowing that I am unlikely to ever get the virus that interrupted so much of life after the year that was. But I got the vaccine not as an endorsement of Joe Biden or liberalism but because the vaccine was free, relatively easy to get and the side effects were far less bad than potentially getting the virus. Plus I like not having to wear the muzzle or the bandana outdoors when passing folk on the street.

I am just saying that I respect people’s individual choices and what they think is right for their bodies. I encourage people to look at the risks, pros and cons and decide if the inconvenience and side effects are worth it. But it seemed to me some minor inconvenience beats getting real sick from COVID-19.
