Perhaps we should look at the reason Missouri residents are behind in vaccines? Education is the number one thing we can do to encourage people to get them. And continue to wear the mask if you haven't been vaccinated.

Debbie you have it correct. “Education!” Smart to take the vaccine. Others will not take the vaccine and not wear a mask. Missouri has a long ways to go with “education.” I’m from Missouri. But at the same time very disappointed in my brothers and sisters.

I am concerned, still trying to get family members to take it seriously and get vaccinated. it feels like pushing a boulder up a hill only to have it roll back down.

If these idiots would just wise up and get the damn vaccine, then these numbers would drop.

Kehynan, so I suppose you want to be part of society at the same time. Come and go as you wish, right? You don’t want to change. Meanwhile the rest of society is caring for the Covid-19 sick, business and their workforce have already suffered enough. What is your part in this?

I say let those who do not get the vaccines drop dead.

MO GOP politicians should be ashamed of themselves for politicizing science and going out of their way to do the wrong thing over and over again with coronavirus. The fact that MO is leading the nation in new coronavirus cases is a direct result of their irresponsible actions & dereliction of duty.

Missourians are not getting the vaccine. A typically STUPID move by a bunch of rednecks,

Hey Harold, Rednecks are one thing. But people who want not to vaccinate are another - stupid. Just don’t include the two together.

Covid-19 patients have one thing in common. They have not been vaccinated. So very disappointed in Missouri.

Typical for the mentality of Missourians--no need to get shots.

It took us 15 months to recover from the pandemic, and I’m in no mood for America to go through a rebound. And President Biden and Vice President Harris better get Missouri and Arkansas under control, because I don’t intend to go through that hell of last year again!

After ninety days Harris finally made it to the border, and Joe still gets his pudding every night. Don't expect any help from that administration.

ALL THIS IS GREAT COVER TO HAVE ANOTHER ROUND OF LUNACY WITH MASKS AND SOCIAL DISTANCING AND THE LIKE TO KEEP EVERYONE FEARFUL. AND SO SURRENDER THEIR GOD-GIVEN FREEDOMS. I ALMOST DIED WITH BLOOD CLOTS 10 YEARS AGO AND SO WILL NOT BE GETTING ANY COVID VACCINE.

One death in Boone County in recent weeks is why I don't believe it's time to worry. I would be reconsidering vaccination, if I had not already done so.

More people are killed on the highways than by this virus. Yet no one is doing anything about it.

The fact there is not already one or any attempt at common sense enforcement speaks volumes in it's own right. Maybe we need another department and a 10 year study.......

We used to have government funded mental institutions that would have handled this, but Reagan handed this off to the states who didn't have the money to continue funding.

If the City passes this, the homeless will not go away. They will move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Your children will step over the homeless as they walk to school and you will hear screaming all night long..
