Haha that's exactly what I said. It doesn't matter if your decision poses a risk to me because you made it and that's how it is.

If you are worried, get vaccinated. What risk do I possibly pose to you? Are you under the belief that your vaccine only works if I am also vaccinated?

The risk has been explained. I don't have a problem with someone not wanting to get the vaccine. But I do have a problem with that person standing next to me without a mask on. If you mask up, no issue.

As has been explained ad nauseum the vaccine is not 100% effective and you will not know it didn't work for you until you get sick.

95 at best and likely that will go down with mutations, I believe.

In other words, you don't trust the effectiveness your vaccine?

It appears to greatly improves one's odds, but isn't a guarantee.

None of the posts have been about forcing a vaccine on you. The posts have been about wearing a mask if you choose not to be vaccinated.

I guess it’s because I am a horrible young person that this makes no sense whatsoever.
What a crock. All packs said is if you're going to stand next to him please wear a mask. Your initial post made some very good points but you aren't sustaining it. Total straw man.

What does trust have to do with anything? I'm told over and over again that it is not 100% effective. If you don't want to get the vaccine, fine. But since you already know it's not 100% effective for everyone who does, what is so wrong with wearing a mask if you're not going to be vaccinated?

Actually, I do still where a mask most places, but not all.

But for the sake of your argument, let's assume I never wear a mask. Why is the burden on me? If YOUR vaccine isn't 100% effective and YOU'RE concerned about still contracting it, shouldn't YOU be the one wearing the mask?

I didn't make the vaccine. I'm asking you to wear a mask out of respect for me and everyone else around you. I wear my mask for the same reason even though I am vaccinated.

The burden is on you just like the rest of us because you are part of society, like it or not.
