but the second shot rolled her socks for 18 hours and she thought she was going to die — James Riley

And no consideration is given as to why a person didn't get vaccinated — baker

somehow, covid vaccines are a stellar exemption — baker

Do you believe hospitals should deny people healthcare because they are unvaccinated? — NOS4A2

The one vaccinated gets the one bed left, in priority over the other who deliberately chose not to be vaccinated (and may have to be isolated in a hallway, sent home, or whatever) — jorndoe

For/against then? — jorndoe

Georgia cop who pushed people to take horse dewormer instead of vaccine dies from COVID-19 (Aug 27, 2021) — jorndoe

I'm against denying people medical services. — NOS4A2

The board of hospitals makes such a decision.
For/against then? — jorndoe

I'm not against that. I'm against governments forcing people to do that. — NOS4A2

1. You don't have time to deal with any of this — frank

Vehemently against — NOS4A2

Just if it wasn't clear, in this context, speaking of harmless/harmful isn't the same as when speaking of Dihydrogen Monoxide. — jorndoe

Yeah, most reports show that more education and vaccine acceptance (less education and vaccine hesitance) correlate.
The delimiters are typically high school and college, and far from all are done with detailed rigor and checks.
(Seems biased to dismiss those reports.)
Granted, you can find some that show differently than that, though they're a minority.

People having changed their minds almost always go from hesitance to acceptance.
Some reports suggest a "hard core" that never change their minds.
(In different areas, incorrigibility seems correlated with radical/extreme views.)

One report found that fear of side effects was the most common reason for hesitance. — jorndoe

Not clear what your trying to say here — Isaac

Did you select them accidentally then? — Isaac

deliberately selecting — Isaac

The PhD hesitancy rate is curious — Hanover

God hates masks. They violate the first commandment which is to remember his glory. And what is more glorious than his image which is reflected in man, who he made in that glorious image. God wants his full image on full display. That little drape of cloth that covers the expression of his image casts the world into darkness. — Kyle D Mallester

At press time, Ackrite refused to answer whether or not she had emptied her bowels on the living room floor, arguing that her refusal to divulge such information was protected by the courts.

honesty — frank

There's no interest in persuasion here at all, nothing but pious flag-waiving - if people seriously wanted to convince others to vaccinate, they might want to consider carefully presenting the scientific evidence on risk, or addressing the moral arguments on responsibility, rather than chanting like a bunch of football hooligans. — Isaac

What has knowing 'some stuff' got to do with a claim that the vaccine is harmless and the virus not? Your own citation outlines the very uncertainty I referenced. — Isaac

Your defensiveness betrays your lack of confidence — Isaac

entitled to take risks — Isaac

I guess ... something ... runs in that family. — jorndoe

Placing myself at risk is one thing. Placing others at risk is another. — James Riley

suggests lack of proportional sense

There's no magic :sparkle: spell

Whats the big deal here? If you want it take it. If you dont dont take it. — Prishon

That's not true unfortunately. There are risks. — frank

What a ridiculous thing to say — Isaac

they chose to try and do without prophylactic medicine — Isaac

conflicts with WHO advice — Isaac

That’s where he [the son] died of COVID on August 3 – never getting the vaccine because he thought it was a government conspiracy. Now, she’s [the wife of the dead son is] pleading with the public to get the vaccine. After Stevenson’s death on August 3, one of his sons who was also choosing to not get vaccinated, finally went and got the shot. — Kaitor Kay/KFOR

Record number of refugees fleeing to Afghanistan
Aug 17, 2021

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN—After the successful installation of the Taliban government in Afghanistan, their new offices and processing centers have received more refugees, VISA and citizen applications than they currently have capacity for.

"We have families with young children living in tents right outside", said Ahmad Qahar, an official of the Afghan immigration agency, pointing at the would-be shanty town outside.

The unprecedented situation has put a heavy strain on Afghan resources, and they have approached the UN for assistance.

"With the uncertain future and potential dangers, our family quickly decided to get on the first plane to Kabul", said Mei Cy, a Singaporean national. Similar sentiments have been expressed all around the globe, like Yael (from an unspecified Middle Eastern region) and Swedish Björn, who wished to otherwise remain anonymous.

With the US finally opening their borders for residents wanting to exit, the Taliban authorities could be faced with a larger influx still, and, without help from the international community, the fall could see humanitarian disasters.

So what you suggest is [...] — dimosthenis9

What can replace God?? — dimosthenis9

I wonder what the situation might now be if, say, one of those trillions had been used to foster a very large number of Afghani teenagers for a few months in a western country. — Banno

There are a few historically and politically savvy people around here. — jorndoe

To my understanding, the next generation of Taliban are considerably less intransigent and fanatical than the previous one, and, so, the fears of what the upcoming regime will be like are kind of overblown. — thewonder
