The government as absolutely. no. right. to make my health choices for me. Further, there’s a ton of evidence proving how dangerous the vax truly is, and I’m not putting that in my body for any reason whatsoever.I agree 100%. I think that it’s each person’s right to decide if they want to get the vaccine, and I won’t preach against them if they want to get it. I do think it’s a silly thing to do, for the health reasons (and also it doesn’t even keep you from getting it, so technically it isn’t even a “vaccine”). And I’m sure not going to get it. But the government shouldn’t tell us what we have to do or not do in that respect.
As far as the masks go, I wore one there when everything blew up in the middle of last year, just because I didn’t really have an issue with it one way or another. I think it was a reasonable enough thing for the government to be like “hey let’s everybody wear these so we can see if that will stop the spread of this” for a bit, but I do think they’ve let that go on long enough. I don’t wear one anymore. I would wear one if I was asked to by someone who has a compromised immune system and they were absolutely not comfortable being around me otherwise (and I’ll admit I’m tempted to wear one to Walmart because Walmart is dirty lol), but other than that I don’t wear them. My state has lifted the mandate, and therefore so has my university, luckily.
But yeah. The vaccine? Heck no. Not for me. I’ve heard some very scary things about it. Again, if someone wants to get it, whatever. I won’t argue with you if that’s what you wanna do. I just don’t want people to be like “oh my gosh you haven’t had the vaccine???!? You’re gonna DIE!!!! Your whole family is gonna DIE!!!!”, ya know?
