I'm sorry if I sound like one of "those" people who is stopping people from having fun, but there is no way you are going to convince me that the hundreds of thousands of fans gathered for NFL and college football games are all vaxxed and not risking further mutation. I get that it's outside, but again, these people are shoulder to shoulder, maskless, yelling for 2+ hours, going to and from the bathroom, etc. I just really don't understand how the script has flipped so abruptly from "an outside gathering of tens of thousands of people is definitely a super spreader event" to "nahh it's OK because people are outside."
So it seems like we're back to business as usual, and I won't be surprised if we see another mutation. Or who knows, maybe this thing will just fizzle out.
A vaccinated friend of mine in his 30s ended up in the ICU a couple months back. He’s undoubtedly a rarity, but it certainly made me reevaluate the growing sense of “back to normal” I had. I do hope I’ll get a booster shot before too long, it’s nearly been 6 months for me :sadness:
Waiting for booster for JnJ here.
