People Know if Your Vaxed or Unvaxed Just by Looking at You.

I don't have a MAGA hat or shout at the clouds, but otherwise I do meet several of the un-vaxed criteria in the OP.

When everything was shut down at the height of the pandemic, (except for big-box stores, liquor stores and strip clubs) my wife and I got a shot as soon as we were considered to be eligible. We are both retired and well into our 70s, and "they" said we were in a high risk group. So we got a shot.

"They" said if we got the shots and if enough other people did too maybe then we could all celebrate July 4th in small groups at home. Then "they" said we all needed a booster shot a fewe weeks later to seal the deal . . .and we did that too as soon as it was pollable. Then it was said that we all needed yet another shot (we got it) and then maybe a shot every few weeks or months . . .and I stopped listening.

We both got Covid at one time or another in the next year, and so did our son and daughter-in-law, who had by then each had four or so shots.

This past spring, my wife's brother and sister-in-law spent six weeks in Spain without incident, then flew home and developed symptoms that tested positive for Covid. Both are academics with PhDs. Both have voted Democrat for decades and both have been "vaccinated" at least six times according to him.

It does not master if you are un-vaxed, part vaxed of fully "vaccinated". It does not matyter if you are conservative or liberal, Democrat or Republican . . .or if you shop at Lord and Taylor or Walmart . . . .The Covid is not stopped by your orientation or shot history.

We were lied to, reputedly and k knowingly by people we should have been able to trust.

The real harm in all of this is that whenever a real pandemic strikes, no one will listen.

The OP is so correct.

People have known I have been vaccinated for many decades.

But that would be the old farts who know. Young squirts have no idea what that scare is on my upper arm.

Back in the day, you could not go overseas without being in the vaxxed club.

Have no idea why people whine about it. Especially those that get flu shots. Same principal, different bug.

In fact, experimental technology.

You didn't volunteer to get vaccinated, you volunteered to be a lab rat.

I too have a small pox scar on my shoulder courtesy of Uncle Sams wishes. It doesn't mean shit because the technology changed in terms of delivery method. THAT'S what is at issue.
