Did you mean to generalize millions of people based on 1 person's actions/statements? Honest question because if so then you might want to take a step back and think about things more logically because it's sheer stupidity to generalize the actions of an entire group of people based on a few people.

For the record, most people I know whether vaccinated or unvaccinated have been meeting with people for most of the entire pandemic after the initial few months of shock. If you came to my neighborhood in NYC even last summer you'd never even know a pandemic was going on at a very popular large park near us that's frequented by thousands of people. I've been hanging out with friends since last May as well, and even had 10 people over in my apartment for July 4th.

Most people are not scared for themselves. Most people have the ability to understand that they'll probably be OK but they have a conscience to not get someone who is truly at risk sick (or worse). There are some people who try to stay out of crowds or meet with people because they're close to someone who may be at risk. For those such as myself, I don't want to get sick but this also isn't a reality where I am close with at risk people. Being vaccinated now gives me more freedom (in my mind) to try and resume an even more normal life outside of my friend group and a few places in the neighborhood.
