“I have done what a person should do if one is not going to get vaccinated.”

“I believe it’s in your business interest to run a vaccine-only establishment.”

“Exactly what problem does the delta variant create that masks for vaccinated problem solves?”

“Communities that are fully vaccinated are generally faring well.”

“We are asking people to be honest with themselves.”

“We have all longed for this moment, when we can get back to some sense of normalcy.”

“So here we have unnecessary barriers to reopening schools, exaggerating the risks of outdoor transmission.”

“And that it’s not just in the clinical trials, but it’s also in real-world data.”

“[It] very much depends on how we behave right now.”

“We said 100 million doses in the first 100 days and we’re going to stick to that plan.”
