It means that Republican voters are going to shrink
-
They might not need them anymore
-
Good point.
Although in fairness, it's not republicans, it's magats. Traditional republicans are people I strongly disagree with but they're not dumb: they will get vaccinated. The magats though, that's a different story.
-
Your doctor should be happy to give you the shot, don't be afraid to ask for it and any other vaccines available.
-
And if they aren't, get the fuck away from that doctor
-
Pharmacies will usually let you walk right in
-

Raisinhead isn't gonna stop me from having my kids protected from covid or the flu. I'll take a day trip to Canada if we have to.
Fucking jackass.
-
He is, though, because the real protection is in herd immunity, not just your individual children being vaccinated themselves.
-
That's the infuriating thing. These assholes are hellbent on killing so many Americans. They are happy to kill others for their beliefs in how things work.

A lot of people I’ve talked to know people who are sick or are sick themselves. I’m expecting Republicanitis to be the norm going forward.
-
They literally closed my kids' school a couple weeks ago to sanitize every surface because too many kids were sick.
-
My mom was bedridden for a week last month (extreme fatigue, cough, etc.) and still has trouble with basic tasks. Now my aunt has the same problems. "How did she get what I had? I haven't even seen her since before I was sick! I swear they're trying to poison us."
...I just fucking can't.
-
I've got fucking norovirus.
I wish we had a vaccine for that!
-
I’ve been sick for almost a month
-
-
Fuck these guys. I hope it doesn't come to it but if bird flu becomes a real problem for humans we are so very fucked with these dipshits in charge. It's just one big circle jerk - people put in positions of power to own the libs and do performative bullshit while fElon is ransacking the place.
They don't give a fuck about the country.
-
I mean, unless they actively go in and take those things off the schedule, my "mychart" tells me what I'm due for. Or, as someone that can read the calendar, I can figure out that each fall if I plan to get a flu shot, that's the time to do it.
-
Worst case scenario, we can go off of Canada's vaccination schedule. Assuming, of course, RFK doesn't ban the actual vaccines themselves. Then things become more difficult.
"Ey yo, bro, I got the flu vaccine here, Winter 2027 strain, 100% pure, you buyin'?"

I’m a fan of the heroin campaign though.
-
All this link says is he halted the ADVERTISING campaign. Not anything else. Yet.
-
Incentivizing people to get vaccinated is just as important as the shot itself. It's not nothing.
Hell, even I, a staunch supporter of vaccines, who religiously gets the flu shot every year, sometimes forget to ask my doctor if it's available come autumn.
-
You're not wrong I just felt it was a little clickbaity
-
-
I mean that's still pretty big. Why did the advertising campaign exist... to remind and encourage people to get flu shots, I'd assume they started doing that because... it helped with that. So what's the expected effect of canceling the campaign, Less people getting vaccinated, and more people dying and going into the hospital due to either themselves chosing not to, or being unable to do so, and herd immunity being less.
-
That in itself is way beyond the pale.
-
-
They want us dead
-
Oh it’s fucking mutual.
-
-
When do we all get our triple steroid shots
-
Flu is no laughing matter. My 5yo was down for 5 days....
