Re: Masks

It's the flip side of those that are concerned willfully exposing themselves by mixing with those that don't feel the same way that they do. I can't think of a situation where the former cannot...

Re: Masks

FFS. I really wish you would stick to facts.

I didn't state that there would be no second wave. I stated that I'd wager that there will be no second wave. I note that you didn't take that bet.

Re: Masks

I'd suggest that most people, in most jurisdictions, have no idea about the financial goings on of their government. They only care about how much money is deposited to their bank accounts (by their...

I don't have a view. I am a Type I diabetic and, as I am north of 50, I guess I am in the vulnerable category. I have had two shots of Pfizer. I haven't been boosted as, once again, the data...

Here we go again. I can't help how people interpret what I say. If they read something into what I said that wasn't there, that is a matter for them.

I feel the same way about debating with you too. You take pieces that were not part of the main point I was trying to make, move the goalposts and then accuse me of doing so.

Re: Masks

Maybe. But there is lots of evidence now that having the virus protects one as well as the vaccine does, and for a longer period so, once one can show that they have had it, why should they not be...

If the vaccine stopped those that had had it dying, and had all of...

I would suggest that most do not have a problem with distancing now.

Why the distinction between 100% vaccination and, let's say, over 90% vaccination? Why not 20% vaccination as I know that you...
