I don't consent to breathing in the virus particles of someone who increased their chances of getting infected, or increased the viral load they carried around, because they refused the vaccine. Ultimately you need some way to balance people's rights whenever they are conflicting. Your right to refuse the vaccine vs my right to not die due to your ignorance.

- hackerlight 3y agoIt's not just about me, it's about protecting the rights of any people you interact with, such as shopkeepers. In my opinion, their right to not get Covid supersedes your right to avoid the vaccine. If you are totally hermetic, then sure, I think it would be wrong to force you to be vaccinated, but it's hard to design policy with such granular carveouts without it becoming a bureaucratic mess.
