What will it take?

Most of us are well aware that they're anti mandate. And that there are several different groups. And that some have been abusing passers by & causing traffic problems, & what's worse shown either ignorance, disrespect or both by using a section of the Cenotaph to set up  either a toilet or shower.

They cannot seem to grasp that, while no one wants the mandate, there simply isn't another option - unless we want covid to spread even faster & further.

Those protesting might do well to look at recent history, in particular the effects of polio & TB & the rate of infections in earlier times compared to today.

Michael Baker recently said on the TV (ironically as a correction to David Seymour) that the vaccine is 3% effective against omicron when Seymour was saying it wasnt "effective"
3% is neither here nor there, what a joke.

I'm not sure I buy that, you sure he wasn't talking about the testing positivity rate which has climbed close to 3%.
From what I can see he is still staunchly advocating vaccines to halt the spread.

can you provide a link to the article?
