Did not realize he did not have the full 2 weeks under his belt after 2nd vaccination. He was 9 days short. Apologies.Incorrect information regarding Geno:

There have been 4 local stories in my area of various people who have had the 2 doses and caught covid after, 1 of them actually passed away.
You really need to shut off the news and get out of the echo chamber. There is zero chance we are doing this in 2023. Zero
One item of note, some of the opinions regarding this topic are so outrageous and heartless it is amazing that some can put up with this.
I never said you couldn't. But I ask again. When did the goal become total eradication? Did you really think we were getting to zero?
This is what it will take for the mitigation measures to end. People are still supportive (as am I) but we're getting close to the point where a mass rejection of mitigation measures will happen. Lots of areas already have many vaccine appointments going unused. Once that happens across the country and everyone who wants a vaccine has one, I believe people will move on. And once the public as a group is done with it, it won't matter what the rules are. The rules will then have to be adjusted to save face.
I've seen that happen in my state. The governor "re-closed" indoor dining, many restaurants did not close and the ones that did rightly complained. A very short time later, the rules were changed to allow indoor dining. Then, of course, there was a spike because people were indoors and in close proximity to others for a significant length of time. This was at a time when only healthcare and nursing home residents were eligible for the vaccine. I expect there will be even less appetite for restrictions now that everyone can get vaccinated.
Not eradication but time. It takes time.
You got it........
Good for you......
I think technology played a huge role in this too. Personally if Covid happened in 1995 I don’t think there would be masks or lockdowns. Our access to everything happening in the world and more importantly everyone’s reaction to that has created a culture that tends to act on extremes. See the Flu pandemic of 1968 for reference. Killed more folks than Covid but no reaction from government or people. They just didn’t know.
Don’t you think the mask requirements keep people away too though? I know we are waiting til next year for that reason. I wonder what would be the bigger deterrent for new bookings. Required vaccinated or masks. I have no answer, just an interesting thought.
I think both play into deterring people from going. There are those who will never get vaccinated, and those who won't go because of the mask requirement. We waited until we were fully vaccinated (cancelled 4x) and are going on Saturday. We have been wearing masks throughout the pandemic, and will survive with them at Disney. Not stopping us from going.
I don't equate tyranny with keeping citizens safe. But I do equate tyranny with keeping citizens risk free. See? It's complicated, full of many shades of grey.
Oh I don’t get on people who want to wear a mask. I’m just not spending that kind of money to do so. Rather take the kids to the beach or jungle and keep them out of a mask for vacation.
Of course they do. They've kept me away. There's a group who won't go with mask requirements. And there's a group that won't go without them. I don't envy Disney the task of figuring out when it's time to shift in the other direction. At least the state of FL gives them great leeway to decide what's best for their customers and their bottom line.
