I didn't realize making a comment against the vaccine makes this thread political. What exactly makes it political?



It's pitiful that we live in a society where people refuse to take actions regarding their own health, such as exercise, eat a nutritional diet, limit drinking, don't smoke, lose weight, be vitamin D sufficient, etc. It's a little bit ridiculous for somebody to tell anybody that the only right thing is to get a vaccination.

I think it's ridiculous that I have to read Israeli newspaper articles a few times a week just so I can stay on top of the latest Covid developments without spin, intentional or unintentional bias, "noble" lies, and other politicization. They are at least two months ahead of us in the developments, reporting, and responses. As far as I can tell they just report the facts about the disease and vaccine regardless of whether the news is good or bad and people trust them as a result. How can we be two months behind them in the reporting and responses? That's sad.

And before this thread turns really ugly, let's just concentrate on good thoughts for John Imbriale and leave it at that.

Thanks.
