    I wish it were that simple. But those people are going to take up hospital beds, nurses, doctors, etc away from people who got vaccinated (or couldn’t due to medical conditions). They’ll drive up medical prices even more. They’ll spread their diseases to those with compromised immune systems.

    I don’t feel sorry for them, but they’ll harm and kill others on their way out.

      perhaps you missed the part where I nether pity them, accept their excuses or equivocations, or accept, in any way, any reason for their refusal of their civic, social, or moral responsibilities? because when you say:

      I wish it were that simple

      please explain wtf you mean that I didn’t address pretty explicitly in my first comment

      As for driving insurance prices. I remember there was a law that was introduced in NY that allowed insurance to do that. Everyone was saying it was symbolic, because they already could set different prices for unvaccinated.

      Couldn’t they just do that?

      It’s really too bad that Covid wasn’t deadlier. Can we get Covid Classic back?

      Super Covid?

      Airborne Ebola?
