You downplay the virus like it's no big deal which means you have no interest in getting the vaccine. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to read your misconception of the pandemic and draw a conclusion. If we spike in the fall and it's mainly unvaccinated dimwits who are sick and hospitalized the screws will be tightened up and I can't wait.
I haven’t kept track of who has posted what and who falls on what side of the COVID line but you are totally making assumptions here when you ask to rely on facts.
He could downplay and still get his shot. Fuck, I have family member who goes on about the delta Variant all the time and yet keeps saying maybe next week they will think about the shot, there first one FFS. They just want to “see” first but never really say what they are looking for. So it makes no sense to me but people can say one thing and yet do another completely.
Regardless of any of that - I am on the fence for vaccine disclosure to private, non- medical organizations. For example, I probably would not eat at a restaurant that requires proof of vaccine. You know I have both. I have no problem telling people but when it comes to handing over vaccine “proof”, I’m not comfortable handing over any of my medical info to some random 20 something kid taking down my addresses, phone number, full name, shot I got, second shot I got, who gave them, when I got them, my DOB, last four digits of my HC, etc. because between contact tracing and the little slip you get after your vaccine, that is all the info they are getting.
Will they use it to steal all my money hiding under my mattress? No. But that is not the point. I am private with my info and selective on who I share what with.
While I think it is good to have people vaccinated, and I want to ensure that, the more I think about vaccine proof, the more I am against it.
People’s right to privacy is important and I know you, as someone who has preached it so much, would understand why some would not want to share their private medical info. And should understand without lumping them all into the anti-vaxx category because I have both of mine and am not entirely comfortable with it. Posting it in an ad and showing actual physical proof to someone is two totally different things.
