Because taking the vaccine on one’s own was too difficult a concept. So here we are with a mandate.

Do you even listen to your own words?!?
You wouldn’t eat that cheeseburger…..so we are shoving it down your throat.
You didn’t follow on my request for sex….so I’m taking what I want from you. Yes…a thought or hint of her “no” means you raped her. But when you say no to a vaccine…then you are a danger to society and must be forced into it.
You didn’t want that vaccine….we’ll force you into something you don’t want.

You guys just don’t get it...you can harm other people and society in general by not being vaccinated. You can harm our industry and our economy. You can harm our country and our world. This isn’t about rape or cheeseburgers, or taking away personal freedoms. That’s something your personal pundit is telling you. This is a big problem with an easy fix. Use your head and do the right thing.

You don’t get it. COVID is never going away. That opportunity went out the wuhan lab door and never came back.

Everyone, yes everyone, will eventually get COVID. The vaccine doesn’t stop transmission or infection even in those vaccinated and is only effective for a couple months at best.

The only people who need the vaccine are those who haven’t previously been infected, and want protection from severe COVID. Once everyone has been infected once, data is proving that reinfection is rare, and the virus now no longer being novel, that severe reinfection is incredibly rare.

You get your shot and booster every 4 months. The rest of us will move on with life understanding that it’s never going away. The obsession with the virus has to end!

You think you can put this genie back in the bottle but you can't. Get all the shots you want, covid is not going away. Threaten people with firing, fines, arrest until everyone complies with your demands, covid is not going away. Keep harassing people with mask mandates and lockdowns and tracking software to enforce compliance, covid is not going away.

It's been almost two years now since this came out of China. Time to live your life again.

Do us a favor and exercise your rights as well.
I guess you missed the fact that ShyGuy said nothing about flying with the unvaccinated. Plenty of us vaccinated folks work at places with no vax mandate. I don't care for flying with the unvaccinated at all, but I'm not raising a bunch of hell over the added risk that I am incurring through my CHOICE to continue employment under my employer's current policy. I could quit. That's the only "RIGHT" I have in the matter - same as you.

What risk are we incurring? ALL we’re doing is what we can to mitigate/reduce the symptoms if we catch it. Whether we catch it from someone who isn’t vax’d, or SOMEONE WHO IS.

Agree with the rest of your post. I don’t care who’s vax’d and who isn’t, but I don’t feel any more or less at risk

Correct. It's not going away. Society can't afford to have its hospitals plugged up with the unvaxxed everytime they come down with an infection and have trouble breathing. Unvaxxed are 11x more likely to end up in the hospital than vaxxed. How do you live with Covid? Get everyone vaxxed which will help ensure that hospitals aren't clogged up. That's how society can move on from a medical standpoint.

80 percent of hospitalizations could be reduced by eliminating cheeseburgers, cigarettes and booze… but, let’s put all our energy and resources into running from a virus with a high survivability rate and a questionable vax - and swear by it. Weeeeak AF

The point is that I am entitled to my opinions, feelings, and theories (on those we can disagree). What I am not ENTITLED to is a job at a place where I don't follow policy.
