37. That's okay. That just leaves more vaccine for me.

Mar 2021

And more for all the non-Catholics. Of course, we also have the anti-vaxxers, who follow the "science" they find on the internet. More vaccine for me.

Obviously, I only need one treatment. What I'm thinking of are all the millions of people who don't believe life begins at conception, or that vaccines are an attempt by the U.S. government to turn us into brainwashed zombies. If there is more vaccine available because they don't want it then there are millions of other people in other countries who would be grateful for the serum. Me, I think we're all one worldwide family, so if more members of my family can be vaccinated, I'm happy. I feel sorry, not for these people but for their children, who don't have a choice in the matter.
