Column: We can't blame the unmasked and unvaccinated for being irresponsible? Really? (via latimesopinion)
California state officials and private businesses are increasingly prepared to request proof of COVID-19 vaccination as a precondition of both work and play.
This is not an issue of liberty, as they would have you believe; it’s an issue of public health . This is not a question, solely, of control over one’s own body — the health and safety of others are at risk. People who don’t wear masks or won’t get vaccinated enable the virus to spread and reproduce, and increase the chance of new variants that will evade vaccines.
But following the science is the best and only way to fight the disease. The overwhelming consensus of scientists, doctors and data is that the vaccines are not dangerous, that the breakthroughs are rare, and that it is far safer to be immunized than not.It’s also true that there are some people who face real barriers to getting informed, finding the time or arranging for transportation to where the shots are. They need our assistance.
But I am not in a mood to forgive those who are spreading misinformation, scaring others or politicizing the pandemic., account for 54% of the misleading claims and flat-out lies about vaccines on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. They have a combined following of 59 million people.Or Gov. DeSantis of Florida, who had the temerity to say last week: “We can either have a free society or we can have a biomedical security state.” This from a guy who himself got the J&J vaccine.
