    My GF and I were talking about vaccines and COVID, mainly doubts about them. We both got the vaccine pretty quick. A lot of the talk was about how a healthy skepticism of the profit driven US healthcare system leaves room for doubt. It’s not like the vaccine made us any less sick or prevented us from catching it, or transmitting it. So we were asking ourselves what was the point?

    Ultimately we landed at a pretty logical conclusion which is that the widespread vaccine seemed to ultimately drop the total COVID rate down and we seem to catch some variant of it similar to the flu once a year now. My sister works in healthcare and she usually knows when COVID is making the rounds. I don’t find myself leaning antivaxx. I am skeptical of the Trump and Biden administrations both though in the USA. It’s all too odd how willing people are to put their faith into the vaccine with literally zero doubts.
