I take alternative views all the time. But they have to stand the test of truth. Until natural immunity was proven, I didn’t support it as an alternative to a vaccine mandate. As soon as it was, I changed my stance.

You are against mandates, but have you conceded that they save lives and proposed a compromise, where people who have had Covid can also show that they are less of a threat to others, and thus the only people who need to worry about restrictions are the unvaxxed who haven’t had Covid?

I conceded that law enforcement in Seattle should be granted an exemption for the Covid mandate since we can’t afford to lose any.

Have you conceded that much of the ‘mildness’ of omicron may be because many people who get it have had Covid or vaccines before?

Have you conceded that there are no data to show that children are safer unvaxxed and exposed to Covid than vaxxed?

I conceded that the US should stop masking young children in school, now that vaccines and boosters are available.

What about the fact that boosters reduce your chances of being hospitalized? Any concession there?

Or that good masks reduce your chances of getting ill?

And if ever I am wrong, I admit it. So, where is your criticism of your own side? What’s your opinion on policies that would actually help medical workers TODAY who need our support?

What if I were to tell you covid only exists in your mind and you been going crazy over it for nothing?

Arcos is the most stubborn poster I have ever seen. He always finds ways to defend everything democrats do even if it's illegal or makes no sense. Fortunately most people are not like that and we will get back to normal whether Arcos likes it or not. Humanity (not politics) will win.
