3. It's been barely 5 weeks since vaccines were available to everyone

in my state. And the Governor lifted the mask mandate yesterday. That means people haven't even had the opportunity to get the full effects of immunity yet. My sister got the quickest appointment she could, and she won't be fully immune until Tuesday. But the mask mandate is lifted in MN because the Governor responded to political pressure. That means even the most responsible people, who made their appointments right away, are at risk as a result.

And no, I do not wish death on half the population of America, including children who are ineligible to receive the vaccine.

I am vaccinated OBVIOUSLY, and I still mask. I made an appointment the first day I was eligible.
