[1. All the vaxxed people protected themselves]
[2.] From what I have seen, the Vaccine does work [...]
[3.] I know three people who had the vaccine and came down with Covid and had very minimal symptoms [...]
[4.] These same people were high risk people and ones who should have been taken down by this virus [...]
[5.] Stop listening to everything you hear on the fake news. And look at reality. [...]
[6.] I have been close contact with 4 people who have had covid. This last one I have gotten sick. But it does not appear to be covid. While I did stay home today. [...]
[7.] Neither work or anyone I know says I should go get tested.
1. That's not what the CDC says. The CDC says that the efficacy of the jab diminishes over time and that it has uncertain levels of protection against Delta and other possible strains. A jabbed person may have some protection, but still will get sick, and still will transmit infection. If their protection is sufficiently diminished or if they catch an infection that the jab doesn't protect against, they are effectively unvaccinated. That's what the CDC says.
2. Why should anyone rely on uncontrolled anecdotal evidence? Snake-oil salesmen use anecdotal evidence. But even with compelling empirical evidence to vouch for its efficacy, what right does a government have to compel or punish for making a personal choice on the matter?
3. According to the CDC, people can be asymptomatic but still transmit infection. Some reports say a jabbed individual can be just as infectious as nonjabbed. If the jab reduces symptoms (pushing them towards being asymptomatic), and if asymptomatic people can be infectious, it is a reasonable conclusion that jabbed individuals pose more of a hazard in terms of transmission potential. Especially if they are more lax about maintaining distancing with other people. The way to mitigate that transmission potential is to give them the same tests as any other asymptomatic individual. (Which in my opinion is no test at all).
4. Most people that do not wish to partake are perfectly fine with other people making choices for themselves.
5. Are you proposing that CDC is fake news? I suggest that you tune out from billionaire owned media conglomerates on t.v. and radio that don't have your best interests at heart, and start reading the fine print on the publications for yourself.
6. "Does not appear to be covid". If we buy into the rhetoric, a jabbed individual may still be called an irresponsible asymptomatic spreader.
7. Workplaces toe the line to keep compliant with government mandates. This comes back to the appropriateness of the mandates. If you feel like you're immune because of the jab, and those that haven't partaken are comfortable with the alleged risks, why have any mandates at all? Why are countries still in states of emergency if these measures work?
