Despite that, if you get sick, we will still offer all of you a hospital bed and try our best to help you.


This is not a very helpful, friendly or gracious response. In fact, this whole comment tree should be removed, as it mostly consists of people yelling at each other in high-IQ ways.


At least people think I'm smart for once.

We are just jabbing and negotiating the lines of personal freedom vs. common good.


Just like I contribute to the health care of people who got deadly ventral diseases through their own actions.

I mean, common, what’s your comment about? What are you implying? That you’re morally superior to the OP because you grant him a hospital bed?

By the OPs admission he does not need a shot, won’t need a hospital bed (look up the odds for young healthy people yourself), and by getting vaccinated he would be taking a shot away from someone who does. In fact, by not getting the shot in lieu of someone who needs it more, he’s lowered the EV of hospitalization.

I’m not getting the shot until every last senior in Africa, L. America, and South East Asia has been offered one. And I’ll very well take my bed at a hospital when I need it.


And if you end up with some weird proteopathic disease I'll be (involuntarily) chipping in a large fraction of my meager wages to pay for the publicly funded institutions that will be caring for you.


See, we have each others back, that's what counts.
