They’ve been told, clearly it doesn’t matter.I guarantee there will be a **** load of people who get vaccinated once they’re told that vaccinated people can return to a 2019 lifestyle
It was pointed out a hundred plus pages ago “Enough vaccinated, we get back to normal, lose masks”. Because it’s not INSTANT RIGHT NOW, not bothering to get vaccinated will not speed it up, only delay it. So, yes, they’ve been told, get vaccinated we'll get back to normal, and it hasn’t mattered at all.
The end goal hasn’t moved since day 1. There have been additional intermediate goals. But eliminating/reducing widespread community spread has always been the goal. There mostly hasn’t been an exact number for that, but even here, nobody thinks we’re there yet. Nobody thinks it’s 0 either.I completely agree. If the CDC and governments overall would set goals to lift restrictions then people in general would be more trusting. But continually moving the goal posts makes it seem like they’re shady and not to be trusted. Which is why a lot of the people I know won’t get a vaccine
Recently, there have been a few communities with explicit vaccinated percentage goals. These are a proxy for reduced spread based on enough vaccinated reducing community spread.
Still doesn’t seem to matter.
The only conclusion is that people actively fighting getting vaccinated, or demanding restrictions removed while spread is still high, just don’t care about the community.
