But yes, I agree that too many might be anxious about something that likely (I am not a doctor  ) does much more good than harm. It is shame there is so much hype and fear but I wish the discussion was more medical than political. Because COVID is becoming more prevalent again--I am also watching Dr. John Campbell's videos again, having more groceries delivered and wearing a mask in indoor public settings.

Yes I agree, it should be more medical than political in my opinion too.
There are definitely some (very small numbers I believe) who can't be vaccinated, my sister works with one such person - she's had an organ transplant. It does throw up a dilemma in a small minority of cases it's true. Sadly these people are also more vulnerable to covid 19 so it's a horrible situation for them. My sister's colleague cannot return to the office while covid is in circulation, added to this she is aware many in her office chose to refuse their vaccine on non medical grounds. It's such a horrible situation.
I'm glad you got both your vaccines @

and that you are able to take the steps you need to to stay safe too. I too continue to wear a mask in my job, I'm not sure how much of difference it makes but for me wearing a mask has never been more than a very minor inconvenience so it's not a big deal. We've all got to do what we feel comfortable with IMO, and be considerate of each other too, some of us are higher risk groups than others.
