Let's stick to wrestling. There are educated, reasonable people on both sides. Take all COVID opinions to Twitter please.

No Oracle, maybe educated, but definitely not reasonable are those not vaccinated.
Two thoughts I didn't hear brought up:
We are getting closer to herd immunity which if we get vaccinated numbers into the 80% will have a huge reduction in the virus. But we have to get there first.
Secondly, I find myself slipping (forgetting to bring a mask or forgetting social distance). So easy to do, and with summer here, and many states eliminating stores' requirement for masks, it is important to be on our toes.

I'm guessing that the Delta variant, being multiple times more contagious, bumps up the percentage needed for herd immunity. In addition, there are way too many communities with pathetically low vaccination rates (I'm looking at you, Arkansas) that are nowhere near herd immunity.
