We have remarkably effective vaccines.
Why are we still doing this?
If you're vaccinated and don't want to increase your chances of catching it and experiencing mild symptoms, then stay home and wear a mask when out.
If you have young children who cannot be vaccinated yet, then stay home and wear a mask when out.
If you're not vaccinated due to a health condition, then stay home and wear a mask when out.
If you're not vaccinated because it goes against your "beliefs" for whatever reason, then fuck off... everyone's tired of catering to your idiotic fragility.

Agree with all of this except the young children bit. They have never been at risk. You’re doing them a disservice by not letting them be exposed to it and gain immunity (which will probably confer a benefit in the case of another novel coronavirus decades from now).
