How many rational people do we really have? I understand media influence, and maybe I am reading too many right wing sites, but I consistently see Karens recommending that those who are unvaccinated be ostracized. I honestly don't know anymore.
Well on this board alone, there's me, CID, Ibanez and Ganny. :D

And what about people like KAaron Rogers who talk about personal choice and then whine because they don't want to face the consequences of their choices.
I love all four of you rational folks.

What consequences is Rogers facing? I haven't been paying attention outside of him catching COVID while unvaccinated.

Did the league fine him?

Bingo! If you're not familiar, Boris Johnson and others got busted this last week for holding a big Christmas party during 2020. People in the UK are pissed.

A guy in New Zealand got 10 COVID jabs in one day, at different clinics…

Apparently he was paid to get the shots so others could get legit paperwork…

Interesting. Wonder where the diplomats were from?

https://africatimes.com/2021/11/28/bots ... rom-where/
Authorities in Botswana held a Sunday night press conference to discuss the latest information about the B.1.1.529 coronavirus variant first identified there. In the meantime, southern Africans are asking: Where did this variant actually come from?

That’s because Botswana’s government said Friday that the four B.1.1.529 cases reported last week actually originated with fully vaccinated diplomats who visited from elsewhere. Their home country still is not identified.

Politicians could mess up a wet dream.

That said, good for the guy taking the incentive to find a loophole and exploit it.

Breaking the law is no excuse even if it is for "supposedly" the right reasons. You can:

a) Appeal if one feels that the ruling was wrong

b) Build support, and change the legislation

c) STFU

About time!

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/colora ... nated-sick
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat, declared in a new interview that the COVID-19 emergency is "over" and that he won’t be implementing another statewide mask mandate in response to the spread of the omicron variant, explaining that if people aren’t vaccinated at this point it’s their "own darn fault" if they get sick.
