No, it really shouldn't. I'll be the first to say that unvaccinated people are morally bad, and their actions are harmful to wider society.
But, and this is a really important but, the way to punish that behavior isn't to deny them care in the hospital. For a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that not every unvaccinated person is unvaccinated by choice. But more generally because applying any sort of moral standard to who lives and who dies in an emergency gets incredibly murky incredibly quickly.
If you want to punish people for failing to get vaccinated, I'm all for it. But do so outside of a hospital.
