Vaccine etiquette

Post by Reagan4prez » Fri Dec 10, 2021 7:41 am

As we enter into the Christmas season, where sane, caring people get together with family and friends, let’s review proper medical etiquette.

Asking whether someone is vaccinated is the same as asking them if they’ve had an abortion, whether their ancestors owned slaves, masturbate, or if they have put on weight.

As the great Bill Clinton once said, “Don’t ask. Don’t tell.”

I may need to disagree with you on this one. I myself "cordially avoid" family and friends that have not had any shots yet. I'm not saying they are no longer part of my life. But I tend to have something else to do when there is a get together of whatever with them. And this is my prerogative. I have the 'Merican right to do what I want to, and what I don't want to.

To me, it's like driving without a seat belt.
What's the chances someone is going to pull out in front of me? Very minimal.
Do I wear a seat belt anyway? Yes.

Besides, asking someone if they have their shots don't need to sound invasive.
All you have to say is something like "I got the Pfizer, which one did you get?" or "Where did you go to get your shots at?'
If they are not vaccinated yet, they'll let you know without it sounding like you are judging.
I think your response is appropriate and respectful. I’m glad we can disagree civilly.

Another point of etiquette, some on here have made fun of the deaths of those who opposed mandatory vaccinations who died from Covid-19, yet they don’t make fun of the deaths of those who decided to get the vaccine and died from it anyway, like Colin Powell, and countless others.

So, proper etiquette is not to dance on anyone’s grave regardless of vaccine status. Oh, and more vaccinated people are dying from COVID-19, which I refuse to make fun of.

Colin Powell died from multiple myeloma, you moron. Have you given any thought to your next username when this one gets sent to the DBR?
Um…

“What Colin Powell's COVID-19 Death Says About the Current State of the Pandemic”
https://time.com/6108012/colin-powell-covid-19/

Matt and Honeyman: “Nope.”

“Former Secretary of State Colin Powell dies from COVID-19 complications”
https://www.today.com/news/colin-powell ... ns-t234607

Matt and Honeyman: “Don’t believe it.”

“Colin Powell was vaccinated against COVID-19, but a ‘breakthrough’ infection ended up being deadly”
https://www.baltimoresun.com/coronaviru ... story.html

Matt and Honeyman: “Fake news.”

“Colin Powell dies at 84 of COVID-19 complications”
https://www.npr.org/2021/10/18/10469853 ... plications

Matt and Honeyman: “Nuh-uh.”

The disconnect from reality is truly frightening.
