Despite all the arm-twisting from govt, employers, and media, only 48% of eligible Americans have gotten boosted. The majority—over 100 million—have refused. Another 107 million remain unvaccinated. So more than 207 million Americans, about two thirds of the total population, are now “anti-vaxxers.”

That's because many companies require the initial "full vaccination" as a condition of employment, but do not require boosters. If given a choice, many Americans would have preferred to not be "fully vaccinated".

    Then why are so many accepting only the minimum vaccination required to keep their jobs?

      At least your username is truth in advertising.

        I agree with you. It's obvious fear of losing ones job. Few people care about COVID in reality. Since restrictions have been lifted here I've been to dozens of high capacity events, nobody wears masks, everyone just wants to go back to normal. Complacency and self preservation tend to take priority over protection of others.

        Although the vaccine doesn't stop you catching it or spreading it, I can imagine some would claim this to be their reasoning.

          Yeees, the traditional method of introducing some dormant viral material to trigger a mild immune response and gain immunity is so successful that every flu vaccine ever made has failed. It works for some serious illnesses and has saved countless lives, but not for others. COVID vaccines probably hurt more people than it saved due to COVID being an absolute farce. Either that or the vaccine is the illness. The fact is, pharma companies have been exploiting Americans for years on vaccines. I'm in my 30's and in the UK I probably only had about 8 vaccines as a kid, none as an adult. I hear than Americans are up to about 50 vaccinations? It's laughable. No wonder there are so many libtards running around.

            True, and the British are fairly dismissive to illhealth as we are a resilient breed. Flesh wound? No need for stitches. Infection? It'll clear up.
