Inevitable headlines

We knew headlines like this were coming. First denial, and now the inevitable public admission with a generous helping of “so what?”. I was never going to take the vax, but I definitely wasn’t going to take an action that was being pushed in an atmosphere of total hysteria. I feel very sorry for those who took the vaccine, not out of a belief that it would keep them safe, but because they were told to, with the implied “or else”.  The message became peer pressure, which is powerfully persuasive for those who have such a fear of social ostracization that they will risk their health, and the health of their children. And now look at the price of that cowardice.
