Life is short and getting shorter. Do what you can to stick around

-

90 percent of senior citizens are vaccinated against COVID. From there, the vaccinatio­n rates decrease by generation­s. Why would those among us, born in the tough times of economic depression, war and the shadow of war, be more willing to line up than those of younger generation­s coming after?

A greater sense of community? Connection to the greater good? Trust in science and leaders? Or maybe it’s realizatio­n that life is short and getting shorter. Best then to do what you can to stick around as long as possible.

For you anti-vaxxers of later generation­s there will come a time you wish you had turned down a different road.
