To vaccinate is a choice I believe in. As an islander gets older, 50+, they need to look at the probabilties. The younger islanders have low risk. The risk will NEVER be zero for any of us. But eventually the world will have to reach an equilibrium. The virus and its variants will exist, as will the vaccines and the updated vaccines. Luckily, the you g are not so far the victims. The older will have to deal with a recurri g vaccinate/dont vaccinate risk. Ala the flu, only much more severe. That is my prognostication.

It sounds like this may be a perennial deal. Open the island and let nature and vaccine science and the the risk taking of the individual happen.

Its like the flu that claims many elderly, albeit much worse.

Crappy virus.
