Note this thread was broken off of this topic Re: Unofficial announcement of the monthly community reward
It's frustrating when others put your life on hold or restrict it because they only care about them themselves! Average mean wait times for THR surgery 19 weeks. Currently finishing my 49th week on the waitlist. Previous wait times....12 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks cancelled the day before surgery on the first day of the pandemic shutdown in March 2020 rescheduled wait time 12 weeks.
Get your shot bc hinterland dwellers! So I can walk again it will be miraculous!!😁

Hey here's an incentive to get the shot...I'll SHUT UP about it. 🙂
This thread seems rather quiet since I started my monthly admonishments a while back. I'm so sick and tired of all these people that just can't be friggin bothered to help themselves and their fellow travelers and so find any stupid excuse to not bother. It astounds me that so many people are freaking MAGA hat wearers IN CANADA too!.
Argh

BC had to put the mask requirement back for indoors in the Interior areas but numbers are still climbing so bars there just got shut down yet again. Overall around the greater Vancouver area I see people wearing masks in most indoor locations (not including restaurants) but in my limited amount of “out and about” time it looks to me as though mask use is slowly dropping. Right as the threat is climbing. On a similar note I love seeing the State governors of states like Texas and Florida on TV proudly proclaiming that their citizens know what’s best and will do the right thing. Surprise … you’re Dead Wrong about that.

And then I read stories on CNN, about people that text their spouse from their bed in the hospital, saying, "I should've gotten the vaccine!", and then they die some time later, or the doctor in a COVID ward hearing NUMEROUS people pleading for the vaccine, AFTER they've already caught COVID 🙄, and are just about to be intubated, and many of those people dying later on! 😞

Yeah, that one makes ZERO sense, other than they want to advertise their intelligence, or lack thereof..... 🙄

Literally!
I hear ya - that DeSantis idiot in Florida clearly demonstrates, just like Trump, how much he really cares about the people that elected him! I honestly don't know how these idiots can look at themselves in the mirror, without being ashamed that they're politicizing something that can literally kill the very people that voted for them. 🙄

I got my second shot over 2 months ago. I still wear mask inside a building as I don't know who is a carrier. I don't want to catch anything.
BTW, Influenza shot is about to start in 2 - 3 months.

people all have their opinion on this matter, it can get very heated when two people or groups have very different opinions and you are there watching them argue over this subject.
Feels like this will be like one of those subjects that you should not bring up like politics religion, etc
There is evidence on both side about vaccine efficacy and covid. I don't know what to believe as I am a numbers guy and I the odds of getting it covid and it actually taking my life are very low. I am not at risk but that is not the reason why I will not take the vaccine. It is because I have a huge phobia of needles, I would rather swim with sharks. I get the sweats and pass out every time. Yes I was that kid in school where 3 nurses had to hold me down. The last needle I got was 10 years ago and yes even at 20 years old I passed out. My wife, girlfriend at the time, couldnt believe it when she saw it first hand, she always laughs about it.
