  • It’s not very widespread so that risk is low - there’s literally like 400 cases right now, in a nation of 340,000,000. But if you do happen to run across someone infectious, there’s a pretty good chance of catching it. There’s really no downside to getting a booster, so I’d say yes to the booster.

    Something else to consider - and I don’t know how the vaccines played out in your country - I’ve that in the US, everyone born in or before 1957 is presumed to be immune. Americans vaccinated between 1957 and ?1969? should get a booster because the vaccine the US was using at the time was less effective. And they’re recommending that Americans vaccinated before 1990 consider getting a booster, because they had thought that one shot provided lifetime immunity, but it turns out that you needed a second shot as well. So if the vaccination program where you lived might have had one of those issues, you might consider a booster as well.



  • “It is racial because the people who carry in the Capitol are primarily white people“

    Because the black ones are accosted and harassed if they’re armed? Something I heard a long time ago was that whites fear becoming a minority because they know how minorities are treated. I just find it odd that they use that as a reason to obsessively cling to power instead of trying to make everyone’s lives better.

    Back in 2020, Democratic lawmakers requested a change to firearm regulations in the Capitol when armed demonstrators and militia members went into the building demanding an end to COVID-19.

    Funny how gun laws and gun restrictions are okay when it comes to protecting lawmakers, but not okay when it comes to protecting schoolchildren.
