We Protected You, Now It’s Your Turn
Dear Editor: I would like to add my two cents to this debacle of vaccine or no vaccine. The younger set, and I’m including up to the 60 year olds that refuse to be vaccinated, have no clue as to the danger and disservice they are causing to themselves and others. I grew up when there were no vaccines. Yes, I contacted whooping cough, measles, rubella and chicken pox. Rubella caused birth defects if contacted while pregnant. Polio was rampant. We could not go to beaches, pools or play outside. I remember every time I felt an ache or pain I would freak out! Children were dying and in iron lungs. Those that recovered were left crippled and lame. Then came all the vaccinations. We all had to get them! Where are these diseases now?? The future generations were protected against these illnesses. We protected you. So now it’s your turn to protect us and future generations against these awful viruses. Please, all of you who have put off getting the vaccine do it now! It is easy to obtain and free. Thank you for saving lives. – Grace Wagenman

School’s In, Masks Optional
There are no words for the stupidity in this state – Cindy Clayton,
For sure, so stupid to believe all the fear mongering caused by the media, stupid to think parents don’t have the right to make choices for their children, so dumb to think that a vaccine that still has break through causes is the miracle of all ages, ridiculous to think we can destroy this virus! SMART to learn to live with it. – Cindy Fitzgerald,
Or die from it. – Angie Snider,
So much stress on the kids who are worrying about getting sick – Cheryle Webber,
