I don't get why insurance companies are not pushing the shot. A hospital stay on a ventilator is way more expensive than a shot. They want your juicy premiums.

Does it matter? Seems they don’t pay out anyhow.
As does covid. The insurance companies don't care. They cover what saves them money, not want saves lives.
I think most adults who've had a few shots don't get very sick now. However, it still knocks you. More like the flu and health services not overwhelmed. No longer saves them money but likely will cost you time, life expectancy lost wages etc.
I'm sure they've done he math for their end. They don't care about your end.
The flu still kills people.
all kids should get it too
they’re forced to be close to each other five days a week
then they go and spend time close to adults and old adults
