Leaving the USA and being in France one realizes that the low general standard of knowledge and easily manipulated population that exists in the USA. In the social media videos are circulated to prove that Covid 19 vaccines are a method of population reduction and that the usual culprits (Microsoft, Soros) have some hidden agenda. The fact that the videos are so blatantly false with grand pronouncements which even a high school student here would know to be false, but they are popular in the usa and circulated ad nauseam.
Currently, the polemic discussions about Vaccination in the USA, fired and fumed by right wing media commentators (who refuse to disclose whether or not they have been vaccinated?) who talk about liberty and freedom .. but they do not take into account the liberty and freedom of others.
In Miami, the right wing Cuban Americans talk about their fight for freedom as long as they can deny others who also would like to taste that freedom.
something Macron said stood out in my mind. WE ARE NOT FORCING YOU TO TAKE THE VACCINE, BUT WE HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT THE HEALTH OF FRENCH CITIZENS.
Starting very soon, in places where there is a possibility of spread of the virus, supermarkets, cafes, concert venues, a health passport would be required which would be issued free of charge to french citizens. Those without these health certificates are those who refuse to get them, then they would have to find their venues elsewhere. Thus the health of the french citizens would be protected.
The day after his speech there were more than one million appointments made for vaccines. The French government hopes to vaccinate 90 per cent of the elderly, 70 per cent of the middle aged and 30 per cent of the adolescents.
Congratulations to France..
My heart goes out to millions of people around the world so desperate for vaccines.. willing to risk to travel to other countries in the hope of getting vaccines..
I was told by a friend in the Rental Car business that the demand for rental cars are so high by the vaccine tourists in Miami that his business is booming ..
