The same people saying the virus isn't a threat as it has over a 99% survival rate won't take a vaccine that also has over a 99% survival rate We are never going to get back to normal

The people that don't want to take it aren't worried they're going to fall over dead dumbass. Most are concerned about long term issues from a rushed vaccine that doesn't actually prevent you from getting covid anyway.

We won't know the long term results for years, but if something is wrong and we find it can cause cancer or infertility people who took will legally have no recourse.

A young healthy person with a little bit of common sense will stay away from the experimental cocktail.

Correct. They are just taking a political stance. I don't give a flying frick who does or doesn't take it but there are alternative reasons for those that are against it. And for that reason we will be wearing masks at the airport forever

It's not a political stance to not want to put unknown and unproven shite in your body.

Why would you need to wear a mask in the airport if you have been vaccinated? Think about that question real hard for a minute.

It’s not unknown or unproven. If you drink, smoke, do drugs etc you are just being a hypocrite for political reasons.

Well considering there is no vaccine passport how are people at the airport suppose to know who is or isn’t vaccinated? Special wristbands? Red hats? Card taped to forehead ?

US national numbers: no politics... just the numbers...

Total CoVID Cases:
25,863,671

Total CoVID Deaths:
460,716


Total CoVID cases for population <18 years old:
3,172,306

Total CoVID deaths for population <18 years old:
490

Risk of dying from CoVID for population <18 years old in US:
(490/3,172,306) x 100% = 0.015%

Conclusion:

For population < 18 y.o. in US there is a 99.985% chance that they would NOT die from CoVID-19 infection.

And... they needed to be vaccinated... why?

You are wearing your masks at airports to help convey the fear that your nanny state wants. You may scoff all you want and think it's ridiculous, but the same CDC that told you masks don't do anything, is the same CDC that now says any piece of shite cloth over your face is as good as a biohazard suit. The same assholes that tell you "churches are super spreader events" are the same assholes that state rioting for profit doesn't require masks. And the best one, the same CDC that is telling you "just get your shot and we'll give you your freedoms back" is also saying that you still have to wear a mask if you've had the vaccine or previously had the China flu.

So yeah, i'll pass on "experts" testimonies for now.

You don’t need a vaccine. Just don’t complain when you have to wear a shitty mask at the airport. I’d personally rather get a shot than wear a mask but it doesn’t seem as if the numbers will be high enough for the mask restriction at airports to ever end

Why not? When government oversteps it's bounds, i will complain. Has nothing to do with me, it has everything to do with the Nanny state regressives.

If you really believe that's why masks are required at airports, then you are beyond hope. Enjoy your fear!

I fricking hate a mask. You don’t have a choice at the airport though and that is not going to change anytime soon. I was at an airport for 5 hours last weekend. It fricking sucked. And the lines at bars/restaurants were long as frick because everyone wants to sit down to take the mask off.

There is no fear here. I just want to take the mask off at the airport and be able to use my Saints season tickets. That being said, because of selfish/tin hat fricks like yourself this will not go away anytime soon. Thanks

Oh it's waaaaaayyy better than that. Your numbers are based on confirmed cases. CDC estimates testing is catching 10-20% of covid cases in the US. Now do that math and see how ridiculous it is to say the vaccine warrants emergency authorization for kids.

And is not dependent on vaccines.

Tell me about it, i went to the socialist republic of Disneyworld with my family. I can tell you with 100% certainty, the requirement for masks is not based on science. Simple fear mongering and political posturing.

You may doubt me all you want, but 2024, get ready for another pandemic. Hell, we may get one next year just in time for the mid term elections.

It is 100% political. Not health related. If it was health related, then the mandates would have been logical. None are.
