And out in the world, you have no idea if the person next you is immunocompromised or unable to get vaccinated due to a medical condition. An unmasked, vaccinated person raises real health dangers to those folks.
I realize that literally zero minds are likely to be changed here, but I do think it is fair to point out that the personal decision on getting the shot does not just affect that one person. And I'm sure we will still be having the same, tired fight when booster shots start coming.
I'm also unsubscribing from this thread as I do enough bashing my head against brick walls in my day job. I did not want that to be perceived as me refusing to respond should someone respond to this.
