Please indulge my curiosity. Do you agree with the rest of the grandparent’s comments? It seems like many people disagree with someone’s vaccination personal opinion and then discard the rest of their ideas. How do you feel about the rest of their points?

I have some bias about vaccines: as an old man I was grateful to get vaccinated and also grateful to get PAXLOVID after I got Covid. However, I have 100% sympathy for young healthy people who didn’t want the vaccine.

Vaccines are effective if enough people take them. That unvaccinated young person could be what kills you. It's not a matter of saving that person from themselves. It's a matter of improving everyone's odds.

Sadly the COVID variants spread (not Delta) are hardly affected by the vaccine.
