Are you willing to get the Covid vaccine when offered?

In its nature, this is a bit like arguing that sober people can crash cars too, in response to drunk driving laws.


People with underlying issues - which can include managed conditions like asthma and diabetes - matter.

People over 50 also matter.

When you say the majority of children have mild to no symptoms, you're implicitly acknowledging that a minority of children have severe symptoms. They matter too.

Additionally even children with initially mild symptoms can have long-term problems. Those children also matter.

The people children can pass Covid-19 onto also matter.

Those people also include everyone who isn't 50+ or a child who can also have a severe illness, long-term symptoms, or even die despite not having underlying conditions. You seem to think if they're not a majority they don't matter. They do matter.

And the people who can't get treatment or have critically delayed treatment for non-Covid illnesses or injuries because the healthcare system is overloaded with Covid patients also matter.

And the most focus is on the most vulnerable (hence their being typically vaccinated first), the rest of the population is monitored, and there is vast amounts of real research being put into Covid and long Covid. And we also vaccinate as part of all that. Because vaccinations are one of the most powerful and effective tools at our disposal.

You'll get clown responses because if you took a moment to step back and think about it, you might realise your questions and concerns are those of someone who plainly hasn't taken a moment to actually, critically, think about what they're saying.
Who said people over 50 didn't matter? That is where our vaccination effort and focus should have went. And you are saying that the rest of the population is being monitored why we are in the middle of mandates that are causing people to lose their livelihood, whether they work in an office or not. Clown responses without rebuttals make me laugh, especially when, looking down, nothing that I said was factually wrong and people are so ready to "attack" someone who question, that reading comprehension takes a back seat.

You yourself said "People over 50 also matter." In what part of my post did I say that they didn't?

I guarantee that many of the people pushing the “it’s mostly just old people” narrative are the same people who were frothing at the mouth livid at Obamacare’s supposed ‘death panels’
I have said this many times to people. That was one of the Republicans loudest rants about ACA. Now the same ones are like, "well, Covid is mostly killing old people, So its not that big of deal"....lol
Actually, the numbers I've given is directly from the CDC. This is the problem when everything is politicized.

I'll address your questions a bit later, but how can you call folks 50+ the smallest group? Like they're insignificant.

You've heard of the baby boomers, right?

Owners. Management.... predominantly older.

I guess, technically, by default, since the probability of death goes up with time, there are less folks over 50 than under. But you're talking about roughly 100 Million people. (Without me doing an exact count)
Because in the United States, the 50+ age group constitutes the smallest portion of our population if you believe things such as a Census. In what way did you get "The smallest population in this country is responsible for easily most of the deaths" as me saying that they are insignificant?

So it looks like a death panel board member made an appearance here, lol... As a hard working member of that 50+ group, I am not to thrilled with his particular take on things.
I mean, does it really count as a death if you didn't personally know the person?
Who said anything about a death panel? Also, what is my particular take on things?

What a wild take that guy has. Why focus on the most susceptible. Just let them die. Why worry about a smaller chance of death with those less susceptible? Who cares, just risk it.
Because this shows you didn't read anything that I said.
For those in the medical field, why would focusing on the most vulnerable (those over 50 and those with underlying issues and overweight), monitor how it affected the rest of the population and putting real research into long COVID not work; what would be the advantages or disadvantages?
So focusing vaccination efforts on those that are most vulnerable is letting them die?
