Amazing how so many Americans, and to be fair, other humans around the world, fail to follow science. You know, science, that thing that brought you weather satellites, microwave ovens, more efficient automobiles not to mention the newer electric ones, coast to coast travel by plane in 5 hours, MRIs, Cat-scans, laptops, smart phones, on and on and on... yet refuse to believe the science of vaccines. We have had many vacancies shot into our arms since the first Smallpox one that came out in 1796. Vaccines protect us from disease and have extended the average life span dramatically. As I've said many times before to those who will listen, Darwinism isn't just about physical traits. It also has to do with the ability to make smart informed decisions. The squirrel who senses danger before crossing the road increases her risk of survival over the ones who only see the nut on the other side of the street. It's no different for humans as the statistic on unvaccinated Covid patients is showing. Sadly the media is stoking this ignorance. I don't want anyone to be sick or to die from this pandemic but if these anti-vaxxers are unwilling to take the small risk (we take risks everyday when we head out on to the road in our automobiles) then all I can say is "Farewell and adieu to you, Spanish Ladies..."
