That would be more fair if the same people who don't get the vaccine actively support the vaccine mandate. From my experience this is not true. They simply do not trust institution. Their motive is not free loading herd immunity and avoiding the hassle of doing it themselves.
the whole CDC mask recommendation fiasco only adds fuel to the fire here. how do you explain to these people "yes, the CDC just mislead you, but you should really trust the vaccine recommendation"?
I had measles, didn't die from it. I also had several kinds of flu, didn't die from them either. I almost died in a climbing accident, and from drinking way too much alcohol in my teens.
Plenty of lives are destroyed by side effects from vaccines, same thing with the current lock down, where do you draw the line?
Blindly trusting science is about as smart as blindly trusting the catholic church, the issue was always blind trust.
Big pharma has proven over and over and over again that the only thing they care about is profit; and given enough money, anything can be bought in this society.
I know it's uncomfortable to question authority, but it's also a responsibility.
Glad you didn't die of measles. Unfortunately other people did.
Please cite evidence of the lives destroyed by administering vaccines.
I didn't claim that a lockdown has no adverse effect, quite the contrary. That's why a vaccine (which we don't have, sadly), of course only if it's safe and effective (which is what we generally test for, hence why it takes so long), would help: it would immunise us and we could stop the epidemic at a much lower cost to society than with lockdown.
"Blindly trusting science" is not a thing; science is all about facts and evidence, not about trust.
There's plenty of evidence out there, and plenty of motivation to shoot down any attempt at objective research. Which is where your brain and your responsibility to use it enter the picture.
Of course it's about trust, science has been wrong about many things along the way, because of ignorance and lately to an increasing extent because of money.
Please refrain from putting words in people's mouth to hide your ignorance.
