because it mutates every year and not everyone has it so thats really a moot point, they cant get treatment due to covid being so rife and taking away resources, like I said my sister is a nurse on the ICU and can ensure you its a killer and EVERY single person in there atm with covid is non vaccinated, these people who refuse it are taking away the resources and putting it under pressure, the US have the highest death toll and cases in the world, they were and still are very blase about it, my american friend still refers to it as "the flu" although his brother has just come out of hospital with it. Did lockdown not allow the hospitals to recover? the answer is yes so it worked, thats all it was meant to do, so yes I agree with them as if they are done right as like you said you wont abide and I know countless other who wont and to be fair havent all the way through so we will always be fighting a losing battle similar to masks as they were never going to work with the ignorance of people.
Ill leave it there as we have both said our piece now and seems we will never see eye to eye on the matter.
I think I saw a figure the other day saying 7/10 or similar that are in ICU or are seriously ill are unvaccinated.
Whilst I agree that we cannot keep vaccinating everyone every 6 months, at the moment it seems to be the best option. The evidence of that is the large number of cases we have and the fact the hospital admissions and deaths is low compared to 1 year ago.
The government has messed up a lot of things the last couple of years but they may have got this one right by design or by chance.
What I do think is absolutely hilarious is the army of people who spout rubbish about the government taking away our rights or the government doing this to control us. It’s dangerous to spread that type of rhetoric and plain moronic. There isn’t any incentive for the government to be doing all of this. They don’t benefit from all of the lockdowns, it’s crippling the country financially.
