I believe there is no risk worth sacrificing freedom for and this one is not proving to be worth the attitude too many have taken in response.
I wholeheartedly agree. Even if a doctor gave me 1 day to live and he said we could give you this miracle drug that will erase your symptoms immediately, but you can only have it if we let the government and private businesses have complete control over everyone’s life… I’d tell him, “nope!! Just pull the plug then”.
Plus, if this was Ebola you wouldn’t have to mandate it. Pretty sure 99% of everyone would be scared enough to get the shot even if it had 10x the side effects of these vaccines.
Earlier this year, I was actually contemplating getting the vaccine when it was available for my age group. Now, with every new restriction, it makes me not want to get it even more. To motivate people to get the shot they’re being very counterproductive. Although, I guess it doesn’t matter if you’re gonna be forced one or another. I have a feeling the goalposts will be moved at least another 5 times and we still won’t be any better off than we were before.
