    Even better than that. You take the medicine and it reduces everyone else’s risk of getting sick, even the ones that refuse to take the medicine. It’s the closest thing we have IRL to literal magic.

    As an immunocompromised person, thank you to everyone who gets vaccinated against communicable disease, you make my world a little less heinous to navigate.

      I appreciate your gratitude and I really do hope it does some good for others… Especially because I really hate needles but I have it done anyway for this reason. Lol 😬
