I have a friend who is an anti-vaxer. No way he's going to get that shot. He doesn't trust the government. He doesn't trust medical research. He doesn't trust the pundits. He doesn't believe he needs to be vaccinated against Covid.
Now, I told him, hey, look at India, which doesn't have any vaccine, OK? The country is falling apart - it is on the verge of collapse because of Covid. That virus is so harmful and so easy to transmit, that entire countries are being wrecked, but here in the USA, we are lucky and smart.
Under President Trump, deals were made with the pharmaceutical companies - they would get billions of dollars if they came up with the vaccine and they did. So, we are coming out of the Covid zone.
Finally, as always, I try to make my arguments simple, hard to refute, and use facts. But I know that my friend and about 20 percent of Americans are not going to get the vaccine and they don't have to under our Constitution. But I am sending my friend all my old masks.
