Iho Anti Vaxxers

Many go maskless where they please,
refusing to get the shot,
while spewing droplets of disease,
not caring who they infect,
or who ends up dying or not.
This July, more trouble from these
who sneeze out Delta they’ve caught!

Hello Jennifer ... and they are grouping up to protest so only God knows how many get infected then seriously ill. It is not the common cold as I found out even after being vaccinated - thank you Jennifer - Lindsay

Jennifer, I am with you about maskless "prospective manslaughter criminals." We both saw how The Arch (now late Nobel laureate Tutu) handled his alternative viewpoint. With dignity to his opponents. Even if one disagrees this is nit a true Vaccine to prevent Covid, one must use a mask in public. Basic sense. Shalom shalom & thanx

Thank you Anil! I hope to read more of your work soon. Again, your poem about the Arch was awesome!

Darn straight. Good for you. Direct and true and right to the point! Sad and confusing to see so many narcissistic people in every state. Smallpox, measles, and rubella are gone because we were all vaccinated in the 70s for them. Such a good poem. So glad I found.

Thank you for cheering me on Marikate. We could have had Covid gone by now if it weren’t for them.

The problem we are facing everywhere .Sometimes I had to tell them to keep distance from me.

I’ve have to do that too. For a while it seemed like things were getting back to normal and I felt I could eat in restaurants again but these anti-vaxxers have put us right back where we started. As I write this, my mom and I are in the parking lot waiting to pick up dinner instead of going inside because we’re afraid of catching a breakthrough case.

They are spreading it for sure--we hope things will get better as time goes by, though more will die. Kudos for speaking up, Jennifer--will they heed?

Some people once felt they had a "right" to drive drunk. If this happened to result in killing people, it was just too bad. We enforce rules of public safety when others will be harmed by our reckless behavior. Nice One, Jenn! Keep writing. - Thomas

Some feel it's their right to put others at risk! Of course, they explain themselves differently! Thoughtful, timely piece, Jennifer. Janice

So true Janice! You hit the nail on the head! They are so uncaring. Thank you for visiting me and taking the time to read this and comment on it. God bless you!

They give you a nonchalant shrug as if to say , drop dead, which one is likely to do if these uncaring beings sneeze their disgusting germs and bugs from all 4 corners of our already delicate and traumatized planet . Well penned new friend, Hugs, blessings, Jennifer.

There will always be people who don't give a dam about others dear poet. The world would be a better place, if everyone would realize we are all connected, and part of the same family, What you do to the least of them, you do to yourself. Much love and blessings, to you.

Not a mandate from the goverment, but rather a begging. We wear a seatbelt to keep us safe in a car crash, a life perserver in a boat to keep us from drowning, sunscreen and a hat to prevent our skin from developing cancer, dental cleanings to prevent tooth decay.. on and on. Your poem resonates I was moved by it as u can see.

Very timely; it is such a small thing to wear a mask and now most people can get the vaccine, I wish people had more compassion and common sense~

Hi Jennifer, It's nice to meet you and I enjoyed this timely write. Could your last name be any more perfect, destined to write. Of course, it might be an alias??Nacny

Hiya Nancy! Yes, my name is real. I thought my parents played a dirty trick on me with it but since I’ve had compliments on it I guess I’ll keep it. Anyway, thank you for visiting me and I’m glad you like my poem. I hope to read some more of yours.

This delta is spreading like wildfire, its a double mutation and really contagious, don't people watch the news? These conspiracy theorists have a lot to answer for. Tom
