Spoke last nite with a friend who WAS an ER Nurse but just gave up her profession due to the relentless frustration she tried but could no longer live with while caring for unvaccinated Covid patients. This is so sad. She truly loved her job for over 12 years. Another critical care vacancy that may never get filled.
Traded in his magat hat for a anti vax button and a bag of “magic” Rump beans used in the AZ re, re, recount. Worked out as expected for anyone living in reality.
Have we no sympathy left for these people? All they did is ignore all warnings, scientific research and common sense. Somebody has to look out for them. I know, the Koch brothers and the other billioaires out there can take care of them.
I understand that several thousand hospital workers in New York state are going to lose their jobs because they refuse to get vaccinations – this is a good thing. Employers must be allowed to establish “standards” for being employed – and, since it’s not the government that establishing the standards, the terminated employees have little recourse other than getting the shot. Good.
In The News: Ben Garrison, ultra-right wing Pro-Trump cartoonist, says he has a ‘rough’ case of Covid-19 and treating it with Ivermectin (for animals), beet juice and Zinc pills. I hadn’t heard of him until today and looked at some of his cartoons. Nuff said after seeing his work.
Some conservatives/anti-vaccers are now saying if they DO get sick, they demand they be able to take the monoclonal antibody infusion treatment, at about $2,100 per infusion, which is now going to mostly red states as they have the lowest rates of vaccinated people. Much more expensive than taking any of the vaccines and which would not be needed if the people vaccinated. That the treatment is being redistributed so all states can use it for those who cannot be vaccinated and others due to its limited availability, is being misrepresented by those who are telling people not to be vaccinated.
It’s been gradual in the past six months but the national surge of support for Democrats by the vaccinated is increasing.
“As the COVID-19 pandemic resurges, the roughly 7 in 10 adult Americans who have gotten vaccinated have begun to lose patience with the 3 in 10 who haven’t. In much of the country, especially Democratic-majority cities and states, public policy has begun to reflect that.”
Funny how somehow somebody who was a normal person in 2019 gets instant leper status because they haven’t got an untested unsafe injection of mRNA genetic therapy. And technically firing someone because of their medical status is illegal, at least in a democracy. Those are hard to find nowadays…

I refuse to take care of myself by getting the shot. But if I get sick, I’ll depend on others to take care of me.

I have lost any shred of caring about these blockheads. Except how they affect others.

Not COMPLETE lack of concern for others. But the attitude definitely doesn’t come from trying to follow a biblical life of agape love.

Hard to have sympathy for the anti-vaxxers

There’s a huge difference between private and public morality. Apparently the prostrifers and the antivaxxers are quite ignorant.

Saw one similar to this. A man was standing in front of the sign guy and just said “NO” which is perfectly logical. Darwin was right.
