I think he is referring to people that are protesting the requirement to present a negative test result. That does lead one to surmise that they feel it is their right to attend if infected. And that right would include infecting others. I seriously doubt many people would feel this way, but I would also be expecting that some would, either consciously or not. I have met some that have said as much that have refused to do anything to protect themselves and others stating the government isn't going to force them to do anything and the COVID is a lie and that people aren't really getting sick and dying. Believe me, I keep my social distance from those.

I actually know someone who has been in the hospital for two weeks because she refused treatment for so long based on her belief that Covid is a hoax. It's hard to believe that someone can actually believe that, but obviously it was a sincerely held belief.

I am empathetic toward such people. If our leadership and the media would be more responsible with their messaging people would be more likely to believe them.

It was just what, a week ago, that Biden came out and definitively said that if you have been vaccinated that you will not get Covid?

That's simply not true. Why not just tell the truth - you will be less likely to be infected if exposed, but there will be some vaccinated people who are infected. If you do get infected after being vaccinated, you are less likely to become seriously ill.

Of course, that idiot will lie when the truth would be better. It is just what he is always done.

That's why we should leave politics out of it all. I don't trust ANY politician on either side. I listen to the medical community directly when it comes to all of this.

It's sad that the person you know is going through this. She is clearly one of those brainwashed individuals I mentioned earlier.
