People are over covid. No one cares about it anymore. I think this is due to bad government messaging during covid.

I was waiting until a little closer to Thanksgiving, but I just had a long extended exposure, so now I'm just waiting 5 days so if that if I just got exposed i can wait for Christmas to extend my immunity
What did they think was going to happen when they stopped operating public vaccination sites?
I got the jab plus two boosters and I still got Covid twice. I credit the vaccine for helping my body prepare itself to fight it off, but I feel like my immunity is high enough at this point to not concern myself with getting an annual booster, especially if I have to pay for it out of pocket. Plus the side effects are pretty severe compared to the mild viral symptoms I usually experience.
Agreed. I haven't got COVID at all but had to get the vaccine for work. Worst week of my life.
While the daily number of cases and deaths are announced every day, why did the governments not disclose the vaccinated/unvaccinated rates in the number of cases and deaths, so that we could understand the difference (if any) ?
