Re: How's the pandemic treating you?

They started working on the basis for this vaccine back when H1N1 was a thing. It's a different strain of the same virus as COVID 19. So I highly doubt it's rushed.
Flu shots aren't 100% effective either, but people still get them. Choosing to get vaccinated helps protect the people who can't, such as young children, immune-compromised people, and the elderly. Choosing not to means you're basically going "Fuck you" to those groups. So excuse me if I'm a bit short on "tolerance" for people who are so selfish that they'd rather innocent people get sick with something that could potentially kill them than get a vaccine.
With freedom comes responsibility. That responsibility is to help protect the vulnerable, and anti-vaxxers will always be in the wrong for choosing not to do that. Doubly so if they're public servants and/or healthcare workers who willingly choose to not get vaccinated.
So tell me how that's fascism again?
Also, I have no love for my government. I'm one of the people who is getting screwed over by it, because I'm poor and the disability process is so fucking convoluted that there are literally people DYING before they can even get benefits for legitimate health issues.
But I have a feeling that nothing I say will convince you. so I hope you have a good life, and maybe don't be so quick to slap a label on someone you've only had a short convo with over the internet.
