From left, Aleck Burnell, Jacob Conrad and Dale Garland said they are opposed to new state and federal guidelines on mask usage in areas of high transmission. I say hell no to vaccine mandates, Conrad said. You see all the sicknesses still going around with people that are vaccinated. Ben McCanna/Staff Photographer

(70,585 posts)Among the vaccinated in Maine, a growing anger at those who resist
Inoculated residents express frustration and ambivalence about the unvaccinated
as COVID-19 case counts rise here and across the U.S..

as those three in the picture from the O.P..

to take the vaccine. Maybe she has changed her mind or is sick and or dead by now.
