Considering it's none of your (or society's) business if they choose to get vaccinated or not, you shouldn't be asking those questions. Also, I'm sure by 2/5/10 years the virus will have mutated down to the point it's endemic and similar enough in nature to the common cold and we won't be needing these experimental vaccines.

Ah yeah, trying to get out of this pandemic is none of society's business, except for the last 18 months...

  The only thing you can do to protect yourself is get vaccinated. That's the only thing you can control - encouraging governments and employers to force rushed medical treatments upon their citizens, through threats and acts of violence will only further vaccine hesitancy or put a damper on vaccine uptake. Covid will be around forever and there's nothing anybody can do about it.

    > Covid will be around forever I agree. > and there's nothing anybody can do about it. Nope, with a vaccination it'll be finally comparable to a bad flu (like all those deniers said in the beginning). Portugal has 98% vaccination and has now dropped most of its restrictions. As someone who's vaccinated I do wish the governments would drop all the restrictions and let all the refusers deal with their own mess, but luckily for us governments have a duty of care* for all of society, including the beligerent members, and overfull hospitals disadvantage the vaccinated too. * Although some politicians in power seem to be sacrificing the lives and health of their citizens to sabotage their "enemies", e.g. in Florida and Texas.

      > Portugal has 98% vaccination For the sake of making clarity, after almost two years of mess: in Portugal over 88% of the population is vaccinated (2% of which only partially), which is 98% of the eligible.
