Wouldn't be too many complaining about that one!

Does anyone miss a smoker blowing that shit in your space?

My own view people should be free to refuse the vaccine, but they should be prepared to be refused entry to pubs, restaurants, sporting events, schools, universities, creches, airports, basically anywhere that you freely mix with other people. If you're not willing to protect society then society should keep you in a semi permanent lockdown.

You really mean that people shouldn't be free to refuse the vaccine.

Can't drive a car without a licence. You can't travel to lots of countries without the necessary vaccinations. There's loads of precedent for this.

No, they shouldn't be free to go around infecting other people. The vaccine is one way of not doing that.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

I presume you'll need to be vaccinated to post on GAAboard.
Would get rid of a few nuisances ;D

Just wondering, if you are Vaccinated, can you get infected with the virus from someone who is not vaccinated?

Asking for a friend.  ;)

What were you smoking, or was that just you talking diarrhoea.

No it isn't, there is no evidence it stops the spread.

No, you wouldn't be able to be infected. Unknown how long that may last for though

There isn't yet. I expect there soon will be. It seems extremely likely that it reduces transmission even if it does not stop it.

So for those who want to take the Vaccine that's the bizz, they won't have to depend on the people who don't take one!

Not great though for people who may not be able to take a vaccine but are vulnerable (e.g. Cystic fibrosis) - they will rely on everyone else to take it to protect them
