Coronavirus vaccine.

<< < (2/6) > >>

Jade Sinapu:
I had a 7 way zoom meeting with family this thanksgiving.  We all each had 1 missing place at our tables to signify the ones who can't be here with us.   And we put our cellphone or laptop where the empty plate was.  Anyway,  my brother was able to join which was great,  and he was still very ill.  It's been 1 month now. 

So I said to him,  at least you don't need the vaccine.  To which he replied,  umm you can get this over and over because you may not make am immunity to it.     

So yeah,  I'd rather get the vaccine once or twice and never get full blown symptoms even once from the real virus.  I'll be glad to get my army on full alert and feel rotten,  because at least it goes away sooner than one month.

To SEE my brother looking so ill and to HEAR him still struggling to breathe is evidence of how strong this thing can be.
Thankfully he can walk around.  And he will be getting the vaccine when he is able.

BlueStreak:
I will absolutely get the vaccine, no question about it. I want to be able to put this whole thing in the past, and vaccines are the best way to do it.

Kobuk:
When people can expect to be vaccinated.

Is this good or bad? You be the judge.

I dunno. I think we should prioritize our own healthcare workers and get this out to those who need it but at the same time shutting down any and all possibility for other countries to purchase it just smacks of the trump administrations 'screw you got mine' policy. Especially when other countries purchasing the vaccine could.....oh i dunno, help our economy out? I feel like this is a step in the wrong direction economically speaking. Sure it looks good to put america first but with other nations not even being given the option to buy from an american company it means they're going to buy vaccine from anyone else. And a lot of foreign money is gonna be boosting someone else's economy instead of ours.

But what should we expect from a man who couldn't turn a profit on a casino.
