Valley Stream, L.I.: Let’s see, there’s a deadly disease affecting the world and science has developed a vaccine that may protect us and our loved ones from horrible deaths, but many people still refuse to get the shot and even refuse to be considerate of others and wear masks where need be — without the slightest thought of how long and hard medical staff and first responders work for them. Now, NYC’s puppet of a mayor is awarding $100 to people if they get the shot? Right away I had an image of little boys with their arms crossed, lips pouted and stamping their feet in a corner, refusing to eat or go to bed until they get a treat. If one person gets even one dollar for getting this shot, all the vaccinated villagers should get the same reward. It’s a matter of not only equality but life and death, for God’s sake! John J.
