@elee - we still have the luxury of not being in the epi-center of this pandemic, but we will be, if people persist in their 'freedom-seeking' and anti-social attitudes as depicted by you and others on this thread.
I am going to translate an email I received this morning from Europe (Austria), where they also have crowds of 'anti-vaccers' protesting and just behaving in dangerous ways, generally - the writer's wife works in an intensive care hospital.
"
An absolute majority of unvaccinated are flooding the intensive care centers (my wife works there daily), because of these people everyone now has to go into lockdown. Result: a minority of the total population imposes restrictions on the majority. Here we should wish for, demand solidarity.
How is solidarity of the unvaccinated (minority) going to play out towards the restrictions the majority has to endure because of them, in future?
Will they cease their demonstrations? are they going to share in the horrendous cost which are caused by them? (in the health care system and the economy?) -
are they going to remain unvaccinated (health consequences of which should remain their sole responsibility)?
Does the majority have to deliver themselves to the will of a minority, and if 'yes' - why?
In a democracy it is the custom that the majority decides (meanwhile the anti-vacc minority is paralysing life and economy) - please, what is going wrong here? Which and whose rules should be applied in the future?"
I'll take my leave
