*”If people keep refusing a vaccination for bogus reason, then that’s a consequence of their choice”*
– A large part of the society who is fed up with the privileges non-vaxxers get over the common man.
Denk niet dat mensen de ernst van Covid19 nog inzien, een mondmasker dragen om ergens binnen te gaan is lastig, afstand houden doen ze nergens meer, quarantine enkel als ze er goesting in hebben…
Of the people younger then 65, how many vaxxed vs notvaxxed end up in the hospital?
We have three options:
– Keep vaccination voluntary and don’t massively expand the current healthcare capacity. CON: Lots of people get denied proper care and can even die.
– Make vaccination obligatory and don’t massively expand the current healthcare capacity. CON: Arguably antagonistic to the ethical priciples of bodily autonomy and freedom of choice.
– Keep vaccination voluntary and massively expand the current healthcare capacity. CON: Ridiculously expensive, practically unfeasible on a short term and exceedingly difficult on a long term.
Stating that an option should be dismissed because it has a con is the wrong way to think because every option has a con. You can say that one con outweighs the other, but that would be subjective personal opinion. This is a moral grey area. There will be no option that leaves everyone happy nor is there a proper well established universally accepted methodology to determine which option is better. Luckily we do have universally accepted system to deal with moral grey areas though: democracy. I vote option two. you are free to vote something else, but I vote option two.
