The vaccine mandates and passports will be gone in New Zealand on April 4, which is a week away.
The Government is currently trying to hold several positions at once about the whole thing, but it still appears they are losing ground in the polls.
Since the announcement, Some of us unvaccinated are now getting emails, that invite us to rejoin the clubs, etc that kicked us out 4 months ago. I’ve even been invited for a ‘healthy heart’ checkup from my local doctor.
I don’t know weather to be happy or sad about this, or just be plain angry about it.
There is anger at what we were put through, anger at been treated as lepers, unable to play sports, go to cafés, etc.
Anger at the lost opportunities for the kids. This in itself really gets me, because I’ve spent the last 15 years trying to give the kids the best possible start in life, with opportunities that I never had.
It just seems so cost free moralistic for society to just expect us to rejoin them, as if nothing happened.
There are the unvaccinated who lost their jobs, and some of them are still traumatized by this.
I spent some time before Xmas with people who were ostracised from their families and ‘friends’. Even some churches were turning away the unvaccinated.
It still isn’t over of course, because the Government has mentioned using their emergency powers as a way of controlling the flu.
She has since backed away from that, but no-one trusts that it won’t happen anyway.
All of this has led to a lack of trust and confidence in society as a whole, which is why the unvaccinated have got together in small groups all over the country in the first place. Some are now talking of a parallel economy (effectively an economy that is separate from the state)
I’m not sure what to think of all this right now. We may have won and got rid of the vaccine passports and most of the mandates, but will it last?
