Dear Sprint,
it's hard to know what to do with Covid vaccine information:

What if you tell people to take the vaccine and and it kills them?

What if you tell someone not to take the vaccine and Covid kills them?

It's a dilemma.

The number of people who have died worldwide in the Covid-19 pandemic has surpassed three million, according to Johns Hopkins University.

The milestone comes the day after the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) warned the world was "approaching the highest rate of infection" so far.

India - experiencing a second wave - recorded more than 230,000 new cases on Saturday alone.
Almost 140 million cases have been recorded since the pandemic began.
WHO chief Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus warned on Friday that "cases and deaths are continuing to increase at worrying rates".
He added that "globally, the number of new cases per week has nearly doubled over the past two months".
The US, India and Brazil - the countries with the most recorded infections - have accounted for more than a million deaths between them, according to Johns Hopkins University.
Last week saw an average of 12,000 deaths a day reported around the world, according to news agency AFP.
However, official figures worldwide may not fully reflect the true number in many countries.

Up until a few weeks ago, India appeared to have the pandemic relatively under control.
Cases had been below 20,000 a day for much of January and February - a low figure in a country of more than a 1.3 billion people.
But then infections began to rise rapidly: Saturday saw a record set for the third day in a row, with more than 234,000 cases reported.
Hospitals are running low on beds and oxygen. Sick people are being turned away, and some families are turning to the black market to get the drugs they need. A BBC investigation found medication being offered at five times the official price.

The capital Delhi has gone into lockdown over the weekend, with restrictions put in place in several other states, as officials try to stem the tide.

All eyes are now on the Kumbh Mela festival, which has continued despite fears the millions of Hindu devotees who attend each year could bring the virus home with them. Some 1,600 people tested positive this week at the gathering in the northern state of Uttrakhand, with pictures showing thousands gathered closely together along the banks of the Ganges river.

It has led Prime Minister Narendra Modi to plead with people to refrain from gathering.

But why..........................???

Vaccinated OR not you can still catch the virus and spread it.

What don't people understand about this..........!!!

Remember in the beginning they were saying that once a vaccine has been found we can go back to normal.

The current crop of vaccines are just a band aid, the only thing they do is keep you from getting really really sick.

Thats it....!

Maybe in some maybe a very small amount.

If their immune system is strong enough to fight it off with little symptoms why should they experience long term damage to organs etc they were strong enough to fight it off, then its gone.

More for people who have experienced severe effects.

Not ONE cold or flu symptom
It'll be two weeks, tomorrow
Just a bit of dull pain at the injection site. for a couple of days -if someone punched me
So I asked them to "please don't do that"

I'd highly recommend it to anyone who qualifies for it
