Well trying to tell people what to do is certainly problematic, and we just need to get past this and no more stinking masks!!!

Offering incentives is fine. Mandating is not.

Its bribery,to make people get it. And discrimination for those who dont want to.

You shouldn't bribe people for getting the vaccine

It's not fair to use those dollars to "reward" people for making what should be a personal medical choice!

If it really worked you wouldn't have to bribe people to take it.

However, all eligible UNVACCINATED people who get Covid should have to pay for their treatment at home and do not take up beds in the hospital!!

There is something wrong with people's thinking that have not been vaccinated. We should incentive those unvaccinated with negative reinforcement, not positive reinforcement.

If you think people that get COVID are treated for free in the hospitals, you better think again.

People who got vaccinated are the ones who deserve a reward!!! Don't reward people for not caring.

Medicare Advantage is not Medicare. They are private plans run by corporations for the purpose of extracting as much money out of Medicar beneficiaries and the government as possible. It is private insurance and a Republican plan to destroy actual Medicare. It costs taxpayers a lot more than actual

Because, as always is the case, the far right terrorizes voters with false claims of "socialism" and a single-payer system.

No

No. St. CHARLES is problematic to seniors' health.

THATS for sure! I was told years ago that a monopoly is illegal in the USA but apparently St Charles found its way around that. They own every single hospital and most of the clinics here.

We are very satisfied with Pacific Source Medicare Advantage. Had a Medicare Supplement plan several yrs. ago and every year the cost went up according to age plus had to buy a separate RX plan. Very relieved to not have to shop for a very expensive alternative to Adva. Thank you Pacific Source.

Not yet but everything we do today contributes to the issue nonetheless... Always better to be ahead of the game and do what's best no matter what.
