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.

Tom

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.

Mark Thrasher

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.

Adam Schrader

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

Tom

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?

Harold Kerr II

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

Max

Yahoo News: Nearly 4,000 fully vaccinated people in Massachusetts have tested positive for COVID-19, according to recent data from the state Department of Public Health.

Joana Pentlin

It seems to be spreading very fast.School will be starting soon and it will get even worse.

Daniel M. J.

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.

Harold Kerr II

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

Tom

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

Tom

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

Harold Kerr II

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

Tom Sicignano

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!

Max

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.

Vaccination rates remain low in many of the state's rural counties, where cases are spiking. Yet case numbers remain well below their pandemic peaks.

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.

Harold Kerr II

What a typically DUMB response by the Loony Right

Debra Riffle

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.

Fred Colbern

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

Do you expect violence involving federal agents to continue?

Yes it is inevitable, it will continue until ICE is stopped. Honestly I thought would happen sooner.

Max

Ice will not be stopped, they will just get better tools, and use them sooner.

Jeremy Salas

Its a bunch of Lil weiner having, trigger happy racists joining ice that couldn't make it in real law enforcement or military.

Max

That protect you and your children.

Fred

I am sure many are white supremacists and neo-nazis.

Will Mason

Unless the" protestors" (In reality they are insurectionists) stop being violent, the violence will continue. .

Max

600 of those protesters were Pelosi plants.

Fred

January 6, 2021 was insurrection ... citizens protesting government overreach and invasion of their neighborhoods by unknown masked men in battle fatigues & assault weapons is NOT!

Ruthann Black

As long as violent protesters are blocking federal agents from doing their jobs , it will continue.

Fred

It will continue as long as ICE and DHS continue to use excessive force!

Steve Baumann

There is an anti-American movement that's gained momentum over the past few years. And with the discovery of mass corruption, such as in Minneapolis, those profiting from those activities are going to fight back, hard.

Brenda Freeman

It is what trump wants

Max

The violence is from the Left. Trump, and Americans want Law and Order.

Fred

Masked secret police roaming the streets with no accountability would have never been accepted in America in the past. If they themselves weren't ashamed of there actions, they wouldn't be wearing masks. Our democracy is spiraling the drain!

James Sowash

Until politicians in both parties quit making inflammatory statements, it will continue.

Children are not the property of the State. Their safety belongs to their loving parents, not to a politician.

This new guideline will only benefit the big insurance companies as they will no longer have to cover the cost of the vaccines.
