Why does it seem that most hairdressers, PTs and taxi drivers are all anti-vax?

My own observations on whats going on around me combined with my own interpretation of official data

First to clarify, I am against myself taking the covid vax, not against others. And hence I am against any different treatment of vaxxed vs unvaxxed.

As in 1. No one that I personally know my age group has had a bad case of covid. At worst it was a bad cold.

  1. I had covid and it was like a moderate cold for me. I have recovered easily. I don't mind having it again. And as far as traditional science goes I am to some degree immune.

  2. Anyone who is scared of covid has had (or will have) the chance to vaccinate against it. Therefore I am not endangering anyone. Besides as far as I understand vaccines don't prevent spread, so at best I will only be protecting myself.

  3. I find it extremely suspicious that the whole first world shutdown for 18+ months over this and are preventing (mostly healthy people) from breathing freely just because they MIGHT have the virus. I also find it extremely suspicious how covid is basically a brand and how hard the vaccines are pushed. This makes me extremely distrustful towards this "solution". I would have had 0 distrust if there were not a single lockdown, masks or signs and then they came out with the vaccine and said anyone who wants it can get it, no strings attached.

  4. My family lives across 2 countries where there were basically 0 lockdowns and masks. They all had it, they are all fine. They know some who died from it, but those people were old and unhealthy to begin with. I am not such a person so I have nothing to worry about.

I can go on and on, but I think that is reasonable, and is not deserving of the constant "anti-vax" label I am getting, and in no way should I be labelled a disease vector and have less privileges than the vaccinated.
