- raxxorrax 5y agoFor some few exceptions. I am vaccinated and don't feel threatened by unvaccinated people at all. Yes, there are people with compromised immune systems, but I think it is on them to reduce the risk of exposure without having a mandate on vaccination.
- franga2000 5y agoIt's not just about immunocompromised people. The fewer people are vaccinated the quicker we get rid of the virus. If don't do it quickly, we're slowly "marinading" the virus in the vaccine, increasing chances for a vaccine-resistant mutation. It's kind of like why you're not allowed to stop a course of antibiotics half-way through.
- ghostwriter 5y ago> The fewer people are vaccinated the quicker we get rid of the virus. There is no evidence that the virus can be get ridden of.
- franga2000 5y agoWell, we have gotten rid of other viruses in the past and it also makes sense in theory given what we know about viruses, so the burden of proof is on those claiming we can't.
- batch12 5y agoIf a vaccinated person can transmit covid, doesn't the same issue exist?
- lostmsu 5y agoJust like with drunk driving accidents, it is not binary.
- ghostwriter 5y agoIt’s also impossible to establish that one particular person infected another particular person. Drunk driving accidents are precise on actors.
- batch12 5y agoAnd not the same thing at all. It's dishonest to say: > An unvaccinated person attending a public gathering risks other people's lives as well. Because it implies there is no risk for the vaccinated to spread disease.
- lostmsu 5y agoAre you saying it is dishonest to blame drunk driving because it implies there's no risk for the sober to hit people on the roads?
