So they are prolonging the national misery instead of easing it, which could be done with a few simple strategies. Explain to the public that the virus will never disappear but is no longer a mortal threat to the vast majority of Americans. Encourage the minority still at risk to get vaccinated by honestly discussing who is in jeopardy and what scientists have learned about infections. Promote treatments proven to prevent infection and speed recovery while avoiding unproven treatments and mandates that cause collateral damage and generate mistrust. Above all, make it clear to Americans that we finally have reason to celebrate: what once seemed an unprecedented danger is now just one of many pathogens that we know how to live with.
Thoughts?
not quite there yet, unfortunately.
Your main issue with this assessment is the lack of vaccines for kids under 12, right?
we did the above all, celebrate thing a couple months ago. that didn't quite work out.
We have never honestly discussed who is in jeopardy. I don't think we ever will because it will make people have to look in the mirror and reflect on the fact that their lifestyle choices put them in a much higher risk category. As a society we find it much easier to tell others what to do over taking steps to protect ourselves first.

If you are vaxxed and obese you stand a better chance of being hospitalized than your unvaxxed, healthy 5 year old. That conversation is a non-starter for most. We've had over 15 months to address this known and easily addressable risk and have done nothing, and generally throw abuse at people who bring it up. Just a single pound a week of weight loss during that time would be 65lbs lost for people who are obese. At two pounds a week (up to 130 lbs lost) most obese people would no longer be obese. It's way easier to scream at people.
fatties are people too
hahahahahah…no

Let's just treat them like we do unvaxxed then. Create a BMI or weight passport that's required to dine out, go to any sedentary event (movies, sporting events, etc...), purchase ice cream or beer. /s

Its a lot easier for people to get vaxed then it is for some of the population to lose weight and we sure as shit dont want to invest the money in creating healthy communities so...

Is there ANYONE for whom it's harder to get a shot than lose weight?

It's a pretty well known and researched social contagion.

We're only like 2 1/2 pages away from verb eating McDonalds to own the libs, so I'm pretty happy with it so far.
