Re: But that is the point.

I don't look at things that way. Meaning I don't evaluate "clear and present danger" before just doing what is right. To me being a good citizen is about having concerns over the safety of others no matter whether your conduct will result in a clear and present danger. This is especially so when the preventative conduct is so minimal (i.e. two shots)

I likely have written this before but my son's immune system has been compromised due to metastatic melanoma that required the removal of most of his lymph nodes in the upper half of his body. He had to wait until it was his turn to be vaccinated. During this time he was seriously vulnerable to the virus which could have been fatal to him. I'm going to assume you can imagine how I would feel if he had contracted the virus from someone who weighed the odds and refused to be vaccinated or wear a mask based on "personal rights" and a bastardization of "liberty" because they were not convinced there was a "clear and present danger".. I could never forgive that person in the event my son died from becoming infected by the virus transmitted by such a person. Never. So simple-just a shot. And there are millions of people like my son out there. Hopefully, after more and more responsible people take the shot(s) the danger to people like my son will be less and less.

I just don't believe good people take out their smart phones and calculate the odds before acting in consideration of others.
