All these educated people blaming those unvaccinated need to take a long look in the mirror. I do not believe we would be at this stage if last year the politicians did not use COVID as a means to attack one another and the medical experts were not making assumptions before evidenced based lit was available. I have never seen in 20years of healthcare experts in my field make comments one week only to change the following week because they spoke before the evidence was out. I blame where we are at on 65% politicians, 25% medical experts, and 10% people who would never believe in the vaccine. Blaming anti-vaxxers will only make them refuse it even more.

COL (Join to see) - I think what hurt people at your level is society was expecting answers now and it was too easy to give an early opinion rather than wait for evidence based practice and lit. I bet a good 75% of our society has no idea what peer reviewed or evidence based even means.

MAJ Byron Oyler - Yes... herd immunity is a possibility. Variant by variant, and the hard way - people getting sick. What I said was that it is a myth with this disease *and vaccines.*
Herd immunity is achieved by eliminating potential hosts for the virus - or enough potential hosts that the virus cannot spread. The current vaccines do not prevent people from catching or transmitting the disease, therefore we cannot achieve herd immunity through vaccines.

Both are physicians and a majority of people will side with one or the other.

This might be around the corner, "I don't want to be vaccinated and I do not want to wear a mask."
