Thug Life   29 #9424 Posted September 6, 2021 I'm getting lots and lots of pressure to get vaccinated and I really don't want to and the pressure is beginning to make me feel unwell. I just want to get on with my life and I want people to stop bullying me about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You also have to handle this dirty mask and most people re-use the things and don't adequately dispose of them, more trouble than they are worth. N. Ireland and Israel have mandatory mask policies in most settings and have the highest case rises in the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If you don’t tell people that you aren’t vaxxed, you won’t get bullied.  In any case, fighting must be way more dangerous than  getting a very safe, highly monitored vaccine.

Where do these transmissions take place though? You got any evidence/links? You slate mask wearing, but you do realise you are more likely to catch kung flu round your mates house, than walking round a supermarket where everyone is fully masked. You do realise that right?

I'm not bothered either way, if I catch it I catch it. I'm not walking round in a scrap of paper that does absolutely nothing except tell people I'm a gullible idiot. 53 minutes ago, Carbuncle said: False. Yeah ok if you say so, cases in the UK have absolutely shot up since most sensible people stopped wearing them and just left the hard of thinking at it.  I'm sure the Daily Mail will tell you you can ditch them soon, possibly.
