[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 772068, member: 1199"] This is a good point, but I look at it a little differently. If you are 18 and smoking, or overeating, the consequences are decades away. It's easy for a young person to brush aside those risks as something to consider today. Once you have COVID the risk of myocarditis is next month in some cases. That is an attention getter. But, if you already think you are immortal and the risk of getting COVID symptoms are low, then maybe nothing really matters. Do as you please and take your chances. It bothers me that there are people in leadership positions encouraging young people to engage in risky behaviors. Like you, I am getting vaccinated. [/QUOTE]
