What about the unvaccinated?

I'm urging trying harder to discern my meaning,
rather than leaping to a mistaken inference.

Since your two posts where short and direct and that last sentence is very clear the only way to clear up the inference is for you to clarify what you said "and" why you edited it.

It's a discussion etiquette, actually. Ask for clarification. It means people actually taking into consideration what you're saying.

No need to fight guys! I was just wanting to bring more awareness as to how some mentally ill people are being affected by this. Like I said, I’m not alone. I just wanted to speak up for us and voice at least my concerns

I agree with you. Speak all you want. Surprisingly you will have other people speak up with you that understand your
dilemma.

I do the best I can with many simultaneous
discussions under way in multiple threads.
And in this one, I'm facing many many errors
in need of correction.

I don't challenge your honesty.
Please reciprocate.

Now you are making excuses....try picking one thread and giving it your best.

You have to quote the whole sentence. I said it would be good (for you) to be honest with what you are saying. For example, if you said all unvaxxed people should die, own up to that statement. It may have gone unnoticed but you edited the post so it must have drawn something in you to make the edit?

People who say they do not trust government are usually the first in line for government handouts. Is the government paying part of your medical expenses? Do you get SSI benefits? Do you trust them to send your tax refund every April? If you happen to get Covid will you trust the government to get you treatment? In other words you get to pick what you do not trust?

It seems that too many people are looking for some
government approved dispensation to avoid vaccination.
Belief in QAnon conspiracies shouldn't mean exemption
from reasonable public health requirements.
Neither should a psychiatrist's diagnosis of schizophrenia
be a license to bypass vaccination where required (IMO).

Are you mixing an mental health illness and people believing conspiracy theories?

Posts on RF don't always come across as intended.
As you might notice, it even happens to me.
But there are deep divisions here about whether businesses
have the right to protect workers & customers as we see fit.
I claim that right...others oppose it. Some don't see Covid as dangerous. Some believe that vaccines are useless & even
worse than Covid.
Tribalism & passions can run high. Meh...I just do the best
I can to urge reasonably safe behavior. Success varies.

Do you understand schizophrenia?

I agree its pointless. The OP said why they couldn't take the vaccine and they have a legit reason.
If someone cant accept that then they should just move on.
There's the legitimate question of whether the OP
cannot take it, or just doesn't want to take it.
The next question should be whether this should
make any difference in venues where vaccination
is required.

Perhaps far more than you do.
Do you claim expertise that trumps all other opinions?
He could have said pink elephant's told him no.
Why should that belief be an exemption from
vaccination being required by law (as in NYC)
or by business (as in mine)?
Do you not recognize either the law or the right
of business to protect workers?

Travel is the big thing. Im in a long distance relationship, I worry I won’t be able to cross borders without a vaccine. As well as access to public spaces. In another year or so, perhaps these things will be heavily restricted to the unvaccinated. These two things I’m worried about.
I’m actually not employed on account of my condition, the government I’m so paranoid of takes care of me :D ironic I think
Then you want to get vaccinated. I was at a wedding last weekend and an unvaccinated person who went to Sturges last week brought Covid to the event. So far over 50% of the attendees are infected, including me. I got my shots in April and May and Covid messed me up bad. I'm an athlete and in excellent health and it has been bad. If I dirndl;t get shots who knowns how much worse it would have been. You don't want to mess with the Delta variant, it's bad. If you want to be paranoid about a group of people, be paranoid about the unvaccinated. They're making this worse for everyone, and why?
