So large-scale vaccination is THAT FAR AWAY STILL?
What happens in the interim (as if I didn't know)?
IF. He says IF because he knows y'all don't plan to cooperate at all. Y'all plan to keep doing what yer doin and let the chips falls where they may.
Cooperation is a dirty word..a filthy word...the most worst word. That's why y'all REFUSE to engage in it. You are so pristine and clean and devout and proper.
"If", huh....
Well, "if" I were you I wouldn't go getting my hopes up.
They can't even distribute the vaccines they have right now. Incompetence? Too many "rules"? (still) Unprepared? Take your pick.
People cooperate? HA! That's a joke. It's a "me, me" world out there. "I" do what "I" want and NO one can make me do otherwise!
Back when we were in school, we were occasionally given tests (pop quizzes, exams, reviews, finals) to see whether we had learned the lessons we'd been taught. If we didn't pass, we'd have to study harder lest we fail the final exam and have to repeat the class the following year.
Tests were rarely "fun". Nearly everyone hated - dreaded - tests (although there were a few oddballs who seemed to enjoy them). Year after year, we’d endure those stupid tests, all the while looking eagerly to the day when we'd graduate high school and never have to take a test again.
Unfortunately, it didn't quite work out that way. Even after we graduated, there were still tests. Now, however, we didn't get to "cram" for them the night before. They weren't done on paper and we didn't have to turn them in; and sometimes a test came before we were even taught the material. The "grades" we received on these tests aren't pass/fail, they’re consequences. Some affect us, some affect others, and some affect both. These "tests" aren't math, language, history, or PE tests; rather they're the tests of life.
The virus we are currently enduring is another of life’s many tests. However, it is quite evident that we haven’t learned the lesson. That lesson - ‘It’s not just about you’ (“I” before “we” ends in tragedy). Unfortunately, the lesson many take is, ‘“I” and “me” is the entirety’. This isn’t a formula for cooperation; rather it’s a formula for selfishness. The virus is a test. It’s showing us we still need to learn how to cooperate with each other. That it’s not just about “me”.
