LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

Vaccine excuses hinder progress

I’ve heard so many excuses as to why a lot of people won’t get the vaccine, such as there being a computer chip in the vaccine, we’re guinea pigs, etc.

So, let me ask one question: If not the vaccine, then what?

Does history not repeat itself? Remember a year or so ago when the Strip, businesses and schools were closed as there wasn’t anything to stop the pandemic. Then, several vaccines were developed and smart people like myself hurried to get the shot.

Things slowly were returning to normal. But it’s still not over. Younger, healthy individuals decided they didn’t need the vaccine. So here we are now, with venues and businesses requiring vaccines or negative tests to enter. What’s next? Complete lockdown again?

I hope not.

So once again I ask: If not the vaccine, then what?
