Jason Sitoke Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Found a good article that discusses the role of public health officials and whether they should be purely informational or message shapers. It’s why I empathize with Fauci and also believe he deserves a fair amount of criticism. https://slate.com/technology/2021/07/noble-lies-covid-fauci-cdc-masks.html 1 Link to comment

You really think the vaccination rate of those folks is very high? 1 Link to comment

I don't know, but I don't make absurd statements based on pretending what the answer is.

DevoHusker Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 "Put on a mask because people need to get vaccinated which even if you do we still make you wear a mask because no one likes wearing a mask even if you're vaccinated, and still have to wear a mask." This, in a nutshell, has been the official response for the past 2 weeks. 3 Link to comment

So, you're not refuting the fact that it is happening...just want to argue about the number of possible vaccinations received amongst that number... 2 Link to comment
FrantzHardySwag Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Honestly the focus should just be vaccination at this point. The people that will wear masks are vaccinated, the people who won't wear masks, aren't vaccinated. Keep masks mandatory at places like hospitals (I've already resigned to the fact I'll probably be wearing a mask at the hospital forever). Hopefully hospitalizations stay low and we work through delta shortly, looks like UK has seen their cases peak and dip. 1 Link to comment

The only thing novel we can do at this point is reward vaccinated people with privileges...notice I did not say rights. Why? Because being on a cruise ship is a privilege. Being at a ski resort is a privilege, etc. Not vaxxed? That's fine. We won't make you. But look at the rest of us having fun. Isn't that where you really want to be? Link to comment

I always think it is comical when folks try to imply "faux outrage" or "faux concern" or "faux superiority" or whatever on the part of another poster... (it's basically message board version of $h*t talk) You have zero idea what my feelings are internally, only by what I post here in these threads. Please show me my alleged outrage. Oh, and "most likely" is a qualifier to show that it is "most likely" correct to a degree, but he didn't have the exact number. But you already knew that. 1 1 1 Link to comment

Or do you think migrants have a higher vaccine percentage than their home countries in general? 1 Link to comment
