'We don't have enough antivirals manufactured yet' We have lots of Ivermectin, an antiviral, but it is politically difficult to discuss it rationally. It is also ridiculously cheap, so the manufacturers look for the next expensive treatment to push. 'why should I work at a place that wont even make you get a shot so you don't murder me.' If you believe your vaccinations protect you, then your statement is nonsensical. If your vaccinations don't protect you, then forcing others to take what does not work is also nonsensical. I doubt you run a forklift.

There is no reason to believe Ivermectin works. The single conclusive study was found to have fabricated their data. The meta analysis in the legit journal relied on that fabricated data. It is a deep irony that Ivermectin truthers search for the "truth" that the medical community was withholding an effective drug represents a rejection of the actual truth seeking process which so effectively uncovered the actual "truth" about Ivermectin after many official sources bought the lying paper. People, including actual scientists, literally "did their own research" after 30 papers had cited the lies and uncovered the various irregularities. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02081-w https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02081-w Absent that there is no reason to believe its effective. Conversely we actually have data that Pfizers pill is up to 90% effective at preventing severe covid symptoms. > If you believe your vaccinations protect you, then your statement is nonsensical. If your vaccinations don't protect you, then forcing others to take what does not work is also nonsensical. This is a common rejoinder so its worthy of addressing again. I have every reason to believe that vaccines as of delta greatly decrease my chance of getting covid and greatly decrease my chances of dying of it. Nobody ever claimed that they are 100% proof against covid. Individuals can still get covid. They can still get damaged cardiovascular systems and lungs. They can still die. This is more true for some people than others. Every medium to large workplace surely has several who are far more vulnerable than others who deserve to be safe.
