Most survived. None remain the same person that they were before. I'm at risk and I was vaccinated early on. I take every step that I reasonably can to stay free of the disease.

It's not absolute but it makes a big difference, as you know. I'm surprised the vote count was so lopsided, given that we're talking about children who can't be vaccinated -- and contrary to what many parents believe, kids DO occasionally get seriously ill from Covid.Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721950935860033351.post-21317715544903244472021-09-09T09:37:56.490-04:002021-09-09T09:37:56.490-04:00Fort Dade, Florida has lost 13.

I honestly believe that one of the reasons it is such an issue here is that it did not reach critical proportions last time around. You will find at least one doctor and multiple medical personnel from the hospital who will declare that this is nothing. One nursing home lost nearly 1/3 of their residents, but the response from a nurse was: 'Yeah. And did you see how old they were?" As if, due to age, their cause of death did not matter. You don't see that at big city hospitals where they have dealt with this in crippling numbers last winter. I don't understand the denial. What has to happen for people to consider this 'real'?<br /><br />Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721950935860033351.post-62077109861712682132021-09-09T09:27:51.812-04:002021-09-09T09:27:51.812-04:00I saw on the news where some Georgia school has ha...I saw on the news where some Georgia school has had ten staff members die this school year, all unvaccinated. <br /><br />I just keep telling myself that at least those unvaccinated people who are dying won't be around for the next pandemic so perhaps it will go smoother.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721950935860033351.post-80890958222561923162021-09-09T08:12:19.621-04:002021-09-09T08:12:19.621-04:00Thank you for that, Anonymous.

But our county is at less than 40% vaccinated (the same people protesting the masks are by and large the same folk who don't trust the vaccine). The newspaper polls are really not all that surprising when you consider that it is owned by Ogden Enterprises, and has been a long time supported of the right. I have wrangled with the editor before on publishing letters to the editor which are simply misinformation. Clearly, plainly, demonstrably false. I tried rebutting them with facts, but my letters were limited to two per month. We simply stopped the newspaper, which bills itself as 'news you can trust'. He considers himself nobly remaining in the middle, and allowing all sides to speak. I believe an editor's job is to reject things that are false. What I'm trying to say is that the people that still subscribe to that paper are people who subscribe to those views as well.

For me, having even a mild asthma attack is bad enough and I imagine Covid could be worse, even if vaccinated. I hope you have not been put into contact with the infection.
