Don't worry, I believe you. I was using more extreme language than I thought you believed.

But if you think that society can't enforce vaccine (e.g. a vaccine pass) to protect ICompromised and that being ICd is basically a death sentence. You're saying that IC folks are not worth protecting

No, I support protecting IC people the same as any other delicate segment of our population, but in their own safe space.

Oh dear, unpopular opinion incoming... 🙈

It's akin to 1 kid being allergic to peanuts, so suddenly 299 kids can't enjoy PB&Js for lunch anymore.

I couldn't do that to others.

Can't say I agree with you on the whole way. But I see where you're coming from. Peace mate =)

Same to you.
Good discussion. ☕️🌸

I don't think it's useful to make a statement about a right to medical autonomy in isolation, then extrapolate that into a scenario that pits multiple rights against each other.

Tradeoffs have to be discussed with full awareness of what is to be gained or lost on either side.

Excellent point.
