My pleasure Obie, but hey, if you just want to audit the class that’s fine, but to attend in person, for credit, you’re gonna have to prove you're vaccinated. After all, nobody goes to school unless they are.
Your points are those raised by the fearful, the uneducated, those among us who haven’t realized that the vaccines are far safer, have far less “side effects,” than Covid. But that’s ok, you’re allowed your shortcomings. But please, don’t fool yourself to believe the unvaxx'd have the right to endanger others. Their rights, as sacred as they may be, are outweighed by the rights of society to live free of their fears.
And, besides, we dealt with all that already. We make people wear seatbelts. Are seatbelts an unjust burden? We refuse to allow people to smoke tobacco in public spaces. Are we unjustly denying smoker’s their “constitutional” rights? We demand, by law, that a human body prove, beyond doubt, that they have over ten different vaccines, given through over 25 separate shots, before they are five years old. By law. So, tell me, what law are the unvaccinated wrapping their demands in?
Thankfully, Obie, people know better. Now that we’ve given all Americans the opportunity to line up and be vaccinated, and realized just how much irrational fear so many among us live in, we are seeing industry step up and say, get vaccinated or go away, to their employees, in many cases to their consumers. After all, what CEO whats to harbor idiots? What CEO wants to allow they earnings to be dragged down by the fearful among their employees? What CEO wants to allow their company to be run by people who are listening to charlatans?
As I said, Obie, you’re more than welcome to audit the class, but until you’re vaccinated, you’ll have to do it electronically, from afar. Their is no room for the unvaxx'd to attend class in person.
The sad part of all this, to me, is how much our education system has failed us. How we’ve created generations of selfish people who haven’t a clue. Honestly, if covid has taught us anything it is how far in decline our society really is. Think about it. When Dr. Fauci observed that had our society responded to the polio vaccine the way we are covid, we’d still be plagued by that horrible disease. Sheesh, we’d be plagued by them all.
No Obie, I am sorry, but to argue against vaccines, especially when your entire life, every one of your successes, all owe a debt to the fact we are a society of vaccinated, far outweighs any so called rights the unvaxx’d cling to.
But still, as I said, thanks to science and technology, the same that created the vaccines in the first place, the unvaxx'd can audit the class from afar.
