A Louisiana man hospitalized with COVID-19 told CBS he still wouldn't get vaccinated.
Scott Roe said he didn't regret not getting the vaccine and would rather be hospitalized than get it.
The GOP opened up a Pandora's box of insanity, craziness and stupidity. How can this problem even be mitigated?
In the United States, medicine is a racket. If you get sick, you go to a hospital, and they take all your money. Better to just wish the sickness away.
Yeah, but now you have people in Europe and other places with more socialised medicine going whole hog on anti vaccine nonsense. It's absolutely baffling. Is it just social media eroding people's brains at amazing speed?
Probaby. I don't want to come off as "grr! social media bad!" because that's not what I mean but it is incredibly easy to switch your main source of news to social media, which then is also incredibly customizable. And since social media companies want you to continue using their site as much as possible to serve you ads, they recommend content similar to what you're already consuming and then it becomes very easy to slide down a rabbit hole into a completely different reality.
I don't even know where to begin on how this could possibly be solved though.
