Fricking hell... COVID again

Dr. Harald Brussow is right in this article he published a few years back. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8913850/

My Mom just caught COVID. Again.

We still need COVID vaccine mandates in schools and places of work in order to contain the pandemic.

If someone doesn't want to be vaccinated against COVID, they should be allowed to not be employed. This will not be considered a firing but a voluntary termination by the employee, hence they will not eligible for benefits.

Unvaccinated people should be sent to the back of the line at hospitals.

Insurance companies should be allowed to legally deny coverage to unvaccinated people for COVID. Their foolish decisions should not be allowed to negatively impact people who have done everything right.

Vaccines don't just protect you, they protect everyone around you.

Even when exposed to COVID, vaccinated people start fighting the virus faster, and so we develop lower viral loads. This lower viral load lowers the risk we spread it to others compared to unvaccinated people.

Masks help, but as Dr. Brussow states so clearly, masks alone are not enough. They mostly protect others if you are carrying COVID.

If you want to take on the risk, don't put it on others.

Moral hazard is one of the greatest threat to society.

It is literally impossible to enforce mask mandates.

It is possible and fairly easy to enforce vaccine mandates.

We still need vaccine mandates.

They save lives.
