Stimulus checks and vaccines

I wonder if all those people who feel it's their right to not get vaccinated are

ok with receiving stimulus checks. The checks should be the reward for getting vaccinated. 😎. Money is a strong motivator.

I fail to see the correlation between the two.

Part of the holdup for some in getting the vaccine has nothing to do with willingness. It has to do with availability, competent administration protocols and reasonable accessibility. Things that should have been far better planned in the year leading up to this and far better implemented than has been the case in many, many areas.

What does one have to do with the other? Guess you would like them to bribe people into taking the vaccine. I don't plan on taking the vaccine. I started taking the flu shot just about 6 years ago. Guess I'm just slow.

I'll know when to take it.

Evidently freedom of choice has gone by the wayside in your mind just like freedom of speech is disappearing! I can do without the check and the vaccine, and it's still my choice, not yours. No doubt this will get zapped too!!

You can't force people to take the shot.It's their choice. People are hurting financially,it would be unfair to hold the stimulus checks over their heads,period.

Terrible idea. Totally different issues.

I don't believe that we have lost any freedoms. The opening post is just very misguided.

The stimulus checks and the vaccines have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Way too many ethical problems to even suggest that.

The big reward of getting vaccinated is that you are a lot less likely to get hospitalized or die from Covid. That's plenty incentive.
