MAMEWorld Forums - Welcome to the War Room

For starters, let me remind you that I'm vaxed x3 (got a booster already). Moderna for all 3.

Camp Hansen in Okinawa has been under fire from the Okinawa (local) government (mayor and such) because a good sized group of Marines tested positive. This base, as all bases by now, was 100% vaxed. All SOFA members (to include me as a SOFA-sponsored contractor) are now pretty much on lockdown for the next couple of weeks because of this outcry. We can stop somewhere off base just to get groceries, food to go, gas, and medical appointments if we were referred out in town for a procedure.

Anti-vaxxers have plenty of reason to question... why the hell do it? It doesn't even work! And before you give an answer about it "lessening the severity"... that reasoning has zero effect on a 3rd party. The vaxxed are still catching it, and still spreading it. The last few months in Japan, there have been 4 COVID deaths, and none of them had the Omicron variety. In fact, vaxxed or not, nobody specifically with Omicron has been admitted to the ICU. No one. At least around these parts...

EDIT: And that's why I'm not a reporter... kind of buried the lead there. Point is I dunno who this dude is you're talking about or what he's done (Assuming he's just a deranged anti-vaxer), but I also don't understand why the huge outcry about it. Most of the people crying about anti-vaxxers are the same ones who cry (or agree with) "my body, my choice" when it comes to abortion. Oh the hypocrisy...

Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!
