Here’s a not so friendly reminder:

Just because you have received the vaccine does NOT mean you can just do whatever you want now and stop wearing a mask and social distancing. The pandemic is still happening.

[the-desolated-quill]

If the virus continues to spread, we give it more opportunities to mutate and adapt, which could lead to a variant that’s immune to the vaccine, which would mean everything we’ve been doing would be a waste of time. Until enough people get the vaccine and herd immunity is achieved, keep following the rules, wash your hands, social distance, and wear a mask.

[antivalentine]

Wish people would actually wear masks. 90% of the guests to my store no longer wear masks. Can’t do anything about these variants if the majority of the population refuse to mask up.

[ever-so-slightly-monstrous]

This kind of post borders on misinformation and is honestly the kind of mentality that feeds into anti-vax ideology. 

The two major vaccines, Pfizer and Moderna, are over 85% effective against the new delta strain. The few cases of vaccinated individuals becoming critically ill from covid were people who were already immunocompromised to begin with. The surge in covid cases we are seeing is not vaccinated people becoming sick or spreading covid. It’s unvaccinated people catching covid. Unvaccinated people who were already not bothering with masks and social distancing even before a vaccine was available. Blaming the new cases on vaccinated people engaging in what has been literally deemed medically safe behavior is literally the same tactic that abstinence-only sex ed pushers use when they tell teenagers that condoms are 100% ineffective at preventing pregnancy and STIs, leading to more teens taking no steps to protect themselves because they’ve been told the steps available aren’t worth the effort. Or, I don’t know, the rhetoric used by anti-vaxxers to say that you are better off getting measles anyways because the vaccines don’t even keep you safe at all.

If you want to make a difference with your behavior and have already been vaccinated, the single most effective thing you can do is convince the people you know who might be on the fence to get vaccinated as well. Seriously. Studies show that the single biggest factor in overcoming vaccine hesitancy is seeing people who they know getting vaccinated and having getting vaccinated be framed as something they can do to keep their loved ones safe. That’s not going to happen so long as people are going on about how the vaccines are meaningless and even if you get them you have to continue acting as though you haven’t and are still a Typhoid Mary killing everyone you come within six feet of.

It’s anti-vax. It’s anti-science. And it isn’t even going to accomplish the one thing y’all are upset isn’t happening.

anyway happy Indigenous People’s month, plz don’t let it be overshadowed by Pride like it already is.

I’m happy that it’s Pride month but these two issues need to be given equal attention.

[peachie-ghoul]

Happy indigenous peoples month AND pride month to all the LGBTQ+ natives out there like myself. We’re still here
