re: Why would any sane healthy person vaccinate against a virus with 99.6% recovery rate?

But yes, the massive gender gap in vaccinations rates absolutely stems from men being afraid to confront their own fraility and present a major obstacle to ending the pandemic. Is that at all a controversial thing to say?
Yes. It is. Please provide some
Peer-reviewed research that substantiates this as it actually runs counter to 40 years of personal
observations.

To your other question, when everyone in an at risk group for covid is vaccinated we will hope next year’s version of the vaccine is effective against the variants continuing to transmit throughout the unvaccinated populations across the globe. Of course not everyone in the at risk groups can get vaccinated and that is a main reason you should vaccinate yourself if you can.
When have corona-viruses mutated to become more
lethal?

I took all 3 vaccines. Trying to get my hands on some black market AstraZeneca to vax for the cycle.

Is your loser self vax shaming people on a message board? You must suck. Worry about yourself pal.

In the U.S, I completely disagree. Same day appointments at vaccination sights illustrate this. However, I believe (still researching it) India is getting ravaged and this country could (and should) help them because some folks here are so self-absorbed and scared that they can’t get past the “everybody needs to be vaccinated” shite. It’s like folks don’t know what prudent risk is.

Not sure if this passes your peer review requirement or not but this article discusses the gender gap. And I’m now a bit confused by your position. Just to clarify, you believe men are being vaccinated for covid at higher rates than women?

I get flu shots... survived Covid, going with my own immunity
Posted on 4/27/21 at 10:04 pm to martiansgohome
No argument there. We should absolutely ship vaccines to India. Louisiana was at about 29.5% of its population with at least one shot nearly 3 weeks ago. Today I think it is 31.7%. We’ve basically gone nowhere in 3 weeks. If people here aren’t using them I fully support sending vaccines to other areas of the country where demand is still robust and then ship abroad.

If you can’t even try to empathize

then please explain what happens when all of those at-risk of covid are vaccinated?

are generally just trying to perpetuate this hysteria
People who refuse to vaccinate are perpetuating the whole damn ordeal.

so they can compensate for their own inadequacies by impressing friends and neighbors with their knowledge and feelings about a mostly existential issue.

I skimmed that earlier. Where does it equate “masculinity” with “men being unable to face their mortality and frailty”?
quote:

I already stated women had a higher rate of vaccination (57%). I disagree that not everyone who needs a vaccination can get it. Same day appointments and multiple empty vaccination pods say otherwise.

I know a guy right now that said this same thing. The virus isn’t what is killing him. The Covid induced pneumonia actually is.

All good, just wanted to be sure you knew you were a loser. Carry on

I mean...c’mon man.
4 years, use for the zika virus and the common flu, i wouldn't say that's rushed.

“Decades of research have documented how and why men are less likely to seek care. A 2019 study in the American Journal of Men’s Health, for example, examined health care use in religious heterosexual men and concluded masculine norms — such as a perception that they are supposed to be tough — were the main reason many men avoided seeking care.”
It says it right there in that hard to find middle part of the article.

Everyone who needs a vaccination in this country is able to get it. So, that leaves those choosing not to get it at accepting the risk.
Mutations: viral mutations are generally less lethal. Look at the Spanish Flu. I challenge anyone who perpetuates this mutation fear mongering to provide examples of similar viruses mutating and becoming worse.
Those not getting vaccinated aren’t hysterical about it. However, who form galvanized opinions about them generally are.
It’s a psychological explanation that explains why many people are so willing to cloak themselves in other peoples struggles, or help create struggles.

Are women more likely to be seeking care for nothing?

You didn’t read past that did you? And somehow equated masculinity with “being unable to confront mortality and frailty” Even though the study defines the elements of “masculinity”. lol
