You're asking for all the rights, privileges and protections that come from living in a society, but none of the responsibility. That's just selfish.

"If you are sick or dying or healthy and living - you will have to choice to vaccinate should you wish to do so or, alternatively, quarantine yourself if you feel you are vulnerable to catching CV19 from someone."

Case in point: you've framed this sentence purely in terms of protecting yourself - the thought of protecting others from yourself doesn't appear to factor in to it. If you walk around and mingle, maskless, unvaccinated, not knowing nor caring if you're infected and infectious or not - then you're a danger to every at-risk person you come near. Of course nothing in life is without risk, but out of the tens of thousands of brave volunteers in the Pfizer and Moderna trials the worst side effects have been some pain and redness and/or a day or so of mild fever. For all your posturing about personal choice, everything you write here seems to boil down to "there is no risk so small that I will take it to do my bit for society".

and on this this matter we can happily disagree

You get vaccinated if you wish
and I'll get vaccinated if I wish

WE can argue till we turn blue in the face whether vaccines are effective or not
and we can argue the civil rights and responsibilities from different perspectives for just as long

One of western society's biggest killers is obesity and yet we do very little about it

Ever asked yourself why

Where's the empathy from the manufacturers of the poisons they masquerade as food?

So when you want to lecture me about social responsibilites - start with all those empathetic people that fill the aisles in your supermarket with an array of foods that would never get sold if people were aware of the poisons contained in them.
