Yeah, these politicians are idiots. In places where they have high vaccination rates (U.K. and Singapore for instance), the most people getting COVID are the vaccinated. So it doesn't really matter if you are vaccinated or not as far as who gets it. Supposedly, the vaccinated have less risk, but that's debatable considering the side effects (underreported according to many sources). So yes, it's a personal choice. If you are high risk, then it may make sense to get vaccinated. But for most, it seems not to be.
