It is a myth that the vaccines do not work. They are not perfect, but all of them greatly reduce the risk of life threatening symptoms. I got the news yesterday. She could have been infected days or even a week before. So unfortunately, she still may end up in the ER. I hope not though.
I also have a biological sister and biological mother whom also refuse the vaccine.
I am getting tired of seeing story after story of people whom hesitated or refused only to end up in the ER or dead saying they regretted not getting it.
I really, truly, sincerely hope your cabbie dies. Since she was either too stupid or too selfish to take 20 minutes to go get a shot, she deserves to snuff it for being a deliberate danger to other people.
I have no sympathy for the unvaccinated.

Wow. Other's stupidity doesn't mean those who see it need to lack compassion.
If you had been a character on MASH you would have been Frank, or Col Flag.
My best friend from Oklahoma's dad voted for Trump, but got the vaccine. But his mother and sister also refuse. While he would say, "It is their own fault" and I agree it would be their fault, it doesn't mean I wish death on them. Just like he'd say to me about my smoking, "That can kill you" he'd be right, but he wouldn't wish me death.
I blame the politicians and right wing conspiracy nuts convincing them. I blame Trump and Fox Noise for why they buy that shit.

There's not a diuted variant. Having the shots means a stronger immune reaction to COVID.
Meaning, "making any shed they may pick up less lethal".
I am not disagreeing with you.
