Regardless, it sounds like a lot of money to just power 3 houses.

As a Canadian, I dont know what the hell you guys are doing down there. Trudeau is pretty much a national embarrassment though, so I guess Ill shut up.

So 0.4% chance, not even corrected for pre-existing conditions or other health complications? Ya, I think Iâ(TM)ll take my chances, genius.

thanks to the flu being a noshow this year.
How old are you? In what other year in your life has the flu ever been a "no show"? This IS the flu...

As you're clearly very self centred, think about it from a selfish perspective: by getting vaccinated your're proactively contributing to getting your normal world back, helping maximise the economy and thus your employment prospects and reducing the chance of a variant coming along that has a higher chance of causing you grief.
Lol, that's ME being self-centered? Take your vaccine and you'll me have my freedom back? Uh... how about fuck off?
And if you think you're safe from COVID-19 because of your age, think again: https://www.reuters.com/articl... [reuters.com]
I don't know how your article squares these two things. It says (buried at the end) "More than 350,000 people". Brazil has a population of 250 million, so that's 0.1% of the population - and that's the ENTIRE population, not people under 40. What am I supposed to be afraid of again? I know several people who have gotten COVID and are still alive. It's actually quite possible I already had it too. I was pretty sick in Feb of last year.
If your argument is that I have a 0.1% chance of dying if I don't inject an untested foreign substance into my body, I think I'll take my chances.

How do you know it's not going to destroy your liver in 10 years time?
Wtf kind of logic is this? How do you know you're not going to get hit by a bus tomorrow? I guess you'd better by my one day hit by a bus life insurance policy.
The burden of proof is not on me to show I wont get liver failure if I don't take your vaccine. It's on you to show I will.
