I've got my vaccine, and I've got masks that I will continue to use. I am confident that I will be safe.

I agree we are at a point of diminishing returns with the vaccines. Everyone who wants one has had ample opportunity. If they are still resisting, there is not much we can do.

There will be a new wave of infections, but it will be among those who refuse precautions.

There is only so much we can do to help those who refuse to be helped.

Republicans are being ill-served by their leaders.
