    Likely not. That will depend on the individual/establishment.

    I'm simply discussing the facts.

    Watch the FDA meeting (illuminating). They are concerned of the heightened risk of myocarditis that grows with each jab. Versus:

    Any insight on how long the original vaccine is effective?

    Are any of our resident mask/vax doubters actually not vaccinated? Or are they all vaccinated and just like to argue about it?

    I'm pro-vaccine, but against forced vaccinations, mandates or passports.

    Just in this case, or in general? Inoculations have been required by schools for decades. The military sure doesn’t ask a recruit’s permission before making sure they have necessary vaccines. Getting appropriate shots has always been required to travel to certain parts of the world. The only difference here seems to me to be a matter of scale. That and the incredible number of mal-informed whiners.

    El-P, if you’re concerned about a booster, it ain’t hard to get another shot. I know a few folks that have gone and received a third shot.

    I'd like to generally go through the proper channels.

    In this case.

    We are talking about people can't work, eat in a restaurant, or go to school without having the proper papers in order. Who knows what comes next. Add the fact that the vaccines effectiveness wanes over time, hence the push for boosters, will make these vaccine passports useless without am expiration date.

    I think it should be a personal decision and people should be properly informed instead of being coerced, bribed or eventually held down and forced into doing so.

    Honestly, I think this decision will spark more vaccine hesitancy, but science.

    They didn’t have proper approval per se, but they went to doctors or pharmacists.

    It's been that way for decades though... The only difference now is the scale. Which is when it matters most.

    If everyone were vaccinated nobody would have to worry about any of that. Thw pandemic would be over. And then we may not need boosters for long.

    People who are anti vax are misinformed. The vaccine is safe and helping. I don’t see the harm in mandates. But then again I’m not a paranoid/don’t tread on me type. If someone doesn’t want the shot it’s fine with me but they have to sit their dumbass at home.

    Agreed.

    I'm also against the unrealistic narrative/ expectations that get promulgated
