Pfizer is seeking full FDA approval for their vaccine. Hopefully this would fight hesitancy and we see more vaccine mandates.  :clap:

Ikr but with more mandates they would be forced to work from home (which they have been doing) all day long. And you can expect some schools and universities to remove that as an option.

I don't supporting putting people in jail or fining them if they don't get it. I do support isolating them from society (for everyone's safety) if they don't get it.

Are you sure fines and jail time should be issued like they have been doing with mask mandates?

Maybe as a last resort. Isolation should work. Can't get a job without the vaccine, your kids can't go to school without the vaccine...

I remember having to show my little vaccination booklet in order to go to school.  I still have it.  It has signatures and dates, and some of them have stamps to show they were verified by the public health department.  This isn't some new and revolutionary idea.  It's how we got to where we are, in this world of so little disease.  We can stand a few Jenny McCarthys because we can reach herd immunity without them, but there are so many now that it may set the whole world back.  We've had measles outbreaks, but the advantage is that you'll have lifelong immunity, so you still contribute to herd immunity.  This new virus isn't like that.  You can catch it again, and the more it spreads, the more it mutates, and the more chances it has to get around our vaccines and put everyone in danger again.

If you don't want to be vaccinated, you shouldn't be fined or jailed for it, but you have to home school your kids (the way it was in the old days).  When the virus isn't spreading, you can live normally, but when an outbreak starts, you have to stay home.  If you can work from home, that's fine, but if you can't, then your employer can fire you for missing work because you're a selfish idiot.  You can get a speeding ticket even if you don't harm anyone, because you're putting people in unnecessary danger.  You have to be held responsible for your actions.  People who choose not to be vaccinated need to be held responsible for that choice when it puts other people in danger.  Everyone who has the opportunity to be vaccinated and chooses not to needs to stay home until the virus stops going around.
I'd like to buy a vowel, Alex.  What is E?

Well if your kids are eligible they have to get the vaccine.

I had an appointment with my endocrinologist today. To my surprise, I was not asked if I'd had the shot, or if I wanted it if I hadn't had it.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Have people actually been fined, much less jailed?  I thought it was just a warnings, education, or telling unmasked people to leave response.

Theoretically, not wearing a mask indoors in Oklahoma City could get you a $9 fine.

Though they'd only issue the fine if they were fining you for something else already and just tack the mask fine on top of it.

But the very thought! $9! Who can afford $9!

Which is odd, considering the mayor is pretty centrist, at least as far as Oklahoma politicians go.

Maybe there was some sort of bizarre compromise in the city council between the more conservative and more liberal wards. We'll let you have a mask mandate, but the fine has to be a single-digit number.

To get back to the topic for a moment, I had the second shot of the Pfizer vaccine at 3 p.m. yesterday.  I was budgeting for a couch potato day today, but after more than 18 hours I can't say I feel any aftereffects at all, so I'm going about my usual routine including the exercise.  I guess it hits everybody differently (unless CVS is giving some placebos. :rolleyes: ).

I ran 8 miles and went to the gym the day after both of my shots.  I had a sore arm the first time but really nothing the second.  My wife was trying to convince me I was groggy the second time because of the shot, but it was a Friday.  Friday is usually the end of my cardio week and when I feel the most run down.

Once again, the rich who can pay the fine can do whatever and the poor which can't afford to spend $9 every time get screwed over.
