Covid had a ~5% mortality rate at the peak, H5N1 has a mortality rate of ~56%, a damper won't be enough

Something makes me think people would be more willing to take vaccines when facing down a life or death coin flip. At that point their "concerns" over long term effects don't matter as much.

They were facing life or death and they chose horse dewormer...

So the ignoreant will perish and the rest of us will pick up after them. Kinda sounds like climate change tbh.

That's unfortunately not how it works.
The unvaccinated people become mutation factories and create new variants that we don't have a vaccine for yet, that's why you need a booster every year.

I don't really see the issue with getting a booster every year provided the government doesn't fuck it up. I am already pretty much having to get a Covid and Flu each year this will just be another.
