Oh really! Didn’t realize. Get over it. [/quote]

How do you just get over it? School will most likely be virtual for a few weeks in Jan. Maybe not if we are lucky but the writing is on the wall[/quote]

It shouldn’t be if the hospitals aren’t overfull. And the hospitals shouldn’t be overfull if they stop letting in masses of selfish unvaccinated morons. Sadly, they’re likely to admit masses of selfish unvaccinated morons, overfilling hospitals, and preventing those with illnesses not caused by willful stupidity and selfishness in the face of a highly contagious disease from getting care, therefore messing up schools. Again.

How much will our kids continue to pay for selfishness and stupidity? I don’t know, but I do know that my kids and I have absolutely had it with the self-centered idiocy that’s been running things for nearly a year now. [/quote]

This kind of thinking is pure evil. And talk about selfish. Some people have real reasons for not wanting to be vaccinated. But if we all don’t think like you, we should rot and go to hell? My family is vaccinated but I don’t wish evil and harm on those that aren’t. What is wrong with you? [/quote]

No, PP, the poster you are attacking is 100% right. It’s time to let people receive their just desserts and stop the rest of us from suffering for their willful selfish, tantrums. Those who cannot get the vaccine for legitimate, medical reasons are the ONLY ones excepted from this. No vaccine = no hospital services, period!!  [/quote]

Doctor here. How would you suggest emergency rooms receiving Covid patients in need of urgent, life saving care, evaluate expectations for "legitimate, medical reasons" when they come in? Minutes matter in life and death scenarios. There's no "universal system" that would give every hospital access to this information, so I'd love to know your thoughts on the process. What about religious exemptions (which are also legitimate). Who gets to evaluate those and judge the legitimacy? There's a very slippery slope here that you and others +1ing this must know nothing about.

Do I want everyone vaccinated? Of course. But the assertion that doctors or nurses should start denying care is not only abhorrent, but also an insult to the profession and the oaths we all took when we chose this profession. [/quote]

Thank you. I have so much respect for you for coming out and saying this.  I don't know what is happening to people but it is really concerning. My spouse is a medical professional and shares your views.[/quote]

What’s happening to people?

What’s happening to people is they are watching millions in the developing world die because they do not have access to vaccines that many here turn their noses at.

What’s happening to people is they are seeing their kids struggle with depression and suicidal ideations and withdrawal and who now face another threat that schools will close YET AGAIN because hospitals will fill up again—this time not because no one’s protectable, not because there was no alternative, but because people are so selfish that they won’t do the bare minimum to help keep the hospitals from filling up.

What’s happening to people is that their service or performance art or other front-facing jobs are being eliminated YET AGAIN because covid spread still means tons of hospitalizations—not because it had to mean that, but because we still have a high percentage of people who are unvaccinated running around.

What’s happening to people is that they are hearing about countries like Germany and Austria decide that the unvaccinated may not participate in society, but waking up in America where everyone—including *our kids*—apparently must continue to pay an untold price to preserve the unfettered “freedom” of the willingly unvaccinated, who must of course be allowed to do whatever they damned well please.

What’s happening to people is that they are watching folks who will not spend even five minutes at a CVS to get vaccinated literally SUE hospitals in order to get them to provide horse dewormer to their unvaccinated loved ones, while at the same time learning that people with other medical emergencies LITERALLY DIED because there were no beds for them thanks to the hordes of unvaccinated.

What’s happening to people is that they are losing what little was left of their last shred of faith in humanity, as they watch countless Americans continue to refuse to do a simple, small, free thing that would help everyone get back on their feet.

That. That’s what’s happening to people.

P.S. Since you’re at it, how about you ask your question of people who won’t get vaccinated. What’s happening to them? What’s happening to them that they are STILL willing to cripple our healthcare system? Willing to risk pushing kids farther behind academically, socially, and psychologically? Willing to increase the risk of mutations? Willing to place the medically vulnerable at continued, but now long preventable, risk of severe disease and death? God forbid we ever ask what’s happening to THEM that would make them be so cruel. God forbid. [/quote]
