Unvaccinated Americans Blame Everyone But Themselves—Children, Vaccines And Not Wearing Masks—For Covid Surge, Poll Finds
While most Americans blame vaccine holdouts for surging coronavirus cases, rationed medicines and overwhelmed hospitals, few unvaccinated people feel any responsibility, according to new polling by the Kaiser Family Foundation, underscoring the tough barriers officials must overcome as they seemingly hold anyone and anything other than themselves responsible for the dire outbreak.
Nearly 8 in 10 (77%) vaccinated Americans blame the high number of Covid-19 cases on people refusing to get vaccinated, according to the poll conducted September 13-22 among 1,519 U.S. adults.
Vaccinated adults also pinpointed people not taking enough precautions like mask wearing and social distancing (73%), the infectiousness of the delta variant (67%), and local and state governments lifting restrictions too soon (59%) as key reasons for the rise in cases, the poll found.
Just 12% of unvaccinated adults believe people refusing the vaccine is a major factor behind the high case numbers, the poll found, with the majority (58%) thinking the surge is driven by vaccines being less effective at preventing the spread of Covid-19 than scientists initially thought.
Unvaccinated people even cited vaccine holdouts last among all reasons driving the high case numbers polled by Kaiser, including children who aren’t eligible for vaccination (15%), governments lifting restrictions too soon (27%), the infectiousness of the delta variant (35%), people not taking enough precautions (37%) and immigrants and tourists bringing Covid-19 into the country (40%).
Divergent beliefs in what is driving the wave of coronavirus highlight the wider differences in opinion between the vaccinated and unvaccinated, with a majority of holdouts thinking that breakthrough infections (66%) and the potential need for booster shots (71%) show the vaccines don’t work.
Just 11% of vaccinated people thought breakthrough cases indicate the vaccines aren’t working, Kaiser found, and 19% thought the same of booster shots.
SURPRISING FACT
Despite 77% of vaccinated people holding the unvaccinated responsible for the rise in cases, just over half (51%) said they were angry with them. Unsurprisingly, only 3% of the unvaccinated said they were angry with people who hadn’t gotten a Covid-19 vaccine. As with other opinions on vaccination, the anger is partisan: 65% of Democrats said they were angry with the unvaccinated, while just 16% of Republicans felt the same. Instead, a majority of Republicans (59%) and the unvaccinated (56%) said they were angry with the federal government for the state of the pandemic, compared to 30% of the unvaccinated and 20% of Democrats.

SURPRISING FACT
I don't blame myself for anything, I follow the sensible guidelines laid out to us.
That doesn't include shots nor masks.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
My Sister-in-law (a nurse) reluctantly got the vaccine (Pfizer) a few weeks ago (after being forced by her employer) and has been in the hospital ever since.
She Collapsed to the ground and started seizing about 20 minutes after getting the shot. Luckily, it was administered at the hospital she works for, and she was tended to immediately, but even with the hasty response, she is in really bad shape. She has lost sight in her right eye, and can't feel her extremities. She can hardly form a sentence, and is in a constant state of severe confusion. About 2 weeks ago they put a feeding tube in her because of her inability to keep food and liquids down, and the extreme weight loss that came from that. She shakes all day long (not a seizure), and can't control her bladder/ bowels, so she's got a catheter for that.
She was an extremely healthy individual that is now fighting for her life as they try to figure out why the vaccine caused all these issues. They don't know whether she'll recover from this in the near future or at all. Her and her kids' lives have been thrown into chaos, and all because her employer threatened to fire her if she didn't comply with their vax mandate.
Part of my "absence" on here has been because my wife and I took in her 2 kids (single mom), and have been doing her house and yard work for her, and running her kids to school and back to our house (they live and go to school 30 miles away from us and their POS dad lives in another state). It has been stressful and time-consuming to say the least.
Talk to your doctors about the possibilities that can occur with this shot. The vaccine is not for everyone.OmertÃComment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
Maybe if they would start telling the truth, more of those not yet vaccinated might get the vaccine. When you have someone get on the television telling the public that the vaccines are 100% safe and effective and you already know of instances where someone has a bad reaction to one of the vaccines or someone who is fully vaccinated becomes infected, then nothing those politicians, reporters, Hollywood idiots or whoever else can be accepted as true.Comment

True irony. Complaining about people lying while you lie. Hahaha
Nobody has said the vaccine is 100% without potential side effects. Nobody has said the vaccine is 100% effective. Why do you bother posting this crap when you know it is so easily proven incorrect?Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
There's now a shortage of healthcare workers because of the vaccine mandate. I don't think this is sending the message that she wants.
BREAKING: New York Governor Kathy Hochul says she will deploy medically trained National Guard troops to replace unvaccinated healthcare workers in hospitals, who will be fired tonight.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
Once again liberals have managed to lose me with their logic. The vaccine doesn't stop people from being a carrier of the virus. It doesn't stop them from infecting folks. All it does is reduce the symtoms and keep us from going to the hospital or dying. The unvaxed people pose no more danger to me that you do.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment
