I have spoken to several parents who are reluctant to have there children vaccinated and other whose child has decided for themselves not to have it. Yesterday our infection rate accounted for 20% of the worlds cases! We have 2000 deaths per million, China for example has 5! I am sure there are some discrepancies in all figures and statistics but ours remain way too high. Having done some research the consensus of medical opinion is that the infection rate is highest in the young. Britain has fallen out of the top ten of countries providing the vaccination and we seem to be much slower providing the booster than the initial doses? Yet this seems to be news, that is never on the front page or hardly written about. The rules have been relaxed and guess what the infection rate remains high! The vaccinated are less likely to end up in hospital or die but that has not stopped them doing so. I have said many times I am all for freedom of choice but if me or mine catch Covid because of the reluctance of others, then that is just plain irresponsible. There are still many adults who have not been vaccinated. If you had a disease and went to the doctor or hospital and they said take this medicine, it will help you recover, you would not hesitate for a moment. You would not stop and read conspiracy theories or look up all the possible but minimal side effects before taking it? What happened to the mantra, prevention is better than cure? Are we now more interested in our freedom than our protection? Very soon you’ll have far fewer freedoms than ever before based on what our government has done, is doing and proposing, do you want to be too ill or lost a loved one just because your to stubborn or ignorant to protect both yourself and others. Frankly I am fed up with those who continue to endanger both themselves and me! We can’t beat this virus but we can sure do something to protect ourselves.
Get you and yours vaccinated and stop all this nonsense!
