Sad thing is they are probably smarter than the average anti vaxer.
70s black male with cough, rhinorrhea, sore throat. Clear lungs, no F/CP/SOB. Likely allergies, maybe URI. PCP wonāt see in person because of COVID ZOMG, so he gets put in the covid tent with like 6 active infections.
No covid shot. Why? Because my doctor hasnāt recommended it to me and I canāt see him in person. I donāt know how to do video visits and want to see him in person but I canāt.
HAYACHACHAHCAHAHHCAYACAHHCA
Also saw a four week baby with some congestion who just wanted to be seen in person by a doctor, but her pediatrician refused.
Fuck primary care doctors right now.
Allow me to vent for a moment.
I received my vaccination paperwork, which in theory is the document you need to make a vaccination appointment.
I thought: āIām finally in the clear!ā
But when I went online to make my appointment, I was stunned to discover that at this time my city is only accepting people of the following age groups:
-65 and older
-16-22
And by the way, appointments are NOT filling up right now.
Somehow an 18-year-old kid is permitted to get a shot but middle-aged me is not.
I give up.

Can you mistype your age?
In Japan everyone has ID numbers with age info imbedded. System rejects.
Thatās socialism!
Iām assuming itās because thatās an age group thatās still in school.
My tolerance for masking up again because idiots are idiots is zero. I hate how stupid everything is.
Iāve been trying to convince my mom to get the shots, sheās deeply enmeshed in conservative Christian world, but I think sheās coming around. She seems to be worried about the Delta variant
Keep those Missouri stories in her FB feed.
For those who didnāt subsequently google, it was illegal immigrants. Tough to fool this forum.
I got throttled by Facebook for apparently having too many arguments at once in the comments of a local health department post urging residents to get vaccinated. They reported only 5 out of 42 in their latest batch of infections were vaccinated and all they got in reply was a bunch of people saying that proves the vaccines donāt work.
Spent the last couple day of a week in Mexico City and it is stunning the level of mask and protocol compliance everywhere. Nearly 100% even walking the streets. Itās at the point it is so comprehensive I am kind of annoyed in a weird way. I watched a bunch of people dancing at an open air music thing in a park and it was literally 100% with zero chin diapers. Iām guessing almost everyone here would trip over each to get a vaccine. Even more proof to me that the whole āshithole countriesā is total protection.
I was a victim of fancy play syndrome on that one.
Truckload of fully vaxxed Yankees pozzed and some symptomatic. Cases rising everywhere. Iām starting to get that pre-shook feeling again.
