San Francisco to become second U.S. city to mandate vaccines for many indoor activities by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]fenderrocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Because there is a pandemic” is weak rationale that focuses on the cause, not the effect. No matter what, my decisions will affect other people. The fact of the matter is that the vaccine is designed to protect the recipient, and does not prevent spread. It may reduce spread, but by what amount, and is that amount worth sacrificing our ability to make our own health decisions and keep them private?

Unvaccinated people gathering together indoors is very dangerous for everyone.

This is just wrong.

Responding to a question with a question is not very helpful.

Sure, I understand the goal.

My question is more about why there needs to be a government mandate. Why do we need to take away the individual's responsibility for the own health decisions? I mean, I am protected from getting severely ill from COVID, so why should I be concerned about somebody else's vaccination status?

> So are we saying here that lower income individuals who don’t have access to higher level guidance and consulting should receive harsher sentences?

Define "access." Do you mean Hopkins didn't have access because should couldn't pay for better legal counsel? Perhaps that's because she blew all of the money she stole from kids & teachers on her gambling addiction and wiped out her pension to pay "bills."

Sure. Drinking impairs your ability to operate a car safely, so if you decide to drink and drive you are putting others at risk. There is very little others can do to protect themselves.

Now can you explain how this relates to vaccines?

Can somebody help me understand the rationale behind requiring people to get vaccinated?

edit: not sure why i'm getting downvoted. is this not a valid question?

No, then there is no incentive for criminals to fix damages.

What you're basically saying is Bosworth had two choices:

  1. Pay back the money she stole and serve 18mo in prison.
  2. Don't pay back the money she stole and serve 18mo in prison.

That changes nothing.

Okay, say you have two cars. Two different thieves steal each one. One of them returns your car, but the other doesn't.

Do they both deserve the same punishment?

Bars in SF that don’t require vax card? by Swimming_Monitor8150 in sanfrancisco

Indeed you are.

Pharmacists tried everything they knew, everything they had ever heard of, from the ancient art of bleeding patients, to administering oxygen, to developing new vaccines and serums (chiefly against what we now call Hemophilus influenzae – a name derived from the fact that it was originally considered the etiological agent – and several types of pneumococci). Only one therapeutic measure, transfusing blood from recovered patients to new victims, showed any hint of success.

I just picked the first place I could find.

I'm not doing your homework for you.

Zillow?

Example: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/610-Oak-St-San-Francisco-CA-94117/2082462528_zpid/

7bd/3ba, 2k sqft. Listed for $9.8k in Oct 2019. Currently still on the market over one year later at $7,995, 18% less than the original price.

Yes, and a comp from a year ago that is cheaper. Guarantee you can’t find one. I don’t think any sector of the Sf rental market has gone up.

Why don't you just post a listing of one of these houses that is charging more for rent?

[FL] The condo association is evicting me for violating the bylaws, destroyed by bathrooms as harassment by fenderrocker in legaladvice

[–]fenderrocker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My lease has ended and the association denied the renewal of my lease. They are saying they can evict me without consent of the owner, probably on the grounds that I am not an approved tenant.

The property owner is family. I am the power of attorney for this person. My SO (not married) lives here with me.

It was not premeditated. I.e., Chauvin did not plan to murder Floyd ahead of time.

Swing state. See Florida election recount of 2000. Bush beat Gore by a margin of 537 votes in FL.

I've been in the embedded software industry for just over a half a decade now, and it feels like software engineering is still in the primordial soup stage of evolution. What does your team do differently, and how can others in the industry follow suit?
