Do the vaccinated need to take the proper precautions?. Absolutely. And many are not. I prefer to avoid people most of the time anyway so I stay home and I am perfectly okay with it. Can they can get COVID. Yes. But the way I see it discussed is usually completely out of context and very misleading and is not at all helpful. Getting vaccinated is by far and away the best thing people can do to protect themselves and others. That is what should be emphasized. And no it's not 100% bulletproof. Nothing in life is. I don't understand the focus some people seem to have on putting the onus on the vaccinated. Carry on.

I'm not controlled by anyone's comments but I do listen to science because the virus doesn't care about whacko anti-vax beliefs. It's just looking for a home. And yes I do believe what we say matters, especially with all of the misiformation going around.

I found a very interesting news article over on The Atlantic which delves deeper into the anti-vax phenomena in our American society, Bulldog.

Kurt Anderson records that, "Millions of Americans were tricked by propogandists of the political right into forgoing vaccinations and thus volunteering for death by Covid."

Anderson outlines how this happened by offering sociological study findings.
