are you saying there's no cost benefit tradeoff in individuals deciding whether they want the vaccine?

oh, they'll clog up all the hospitals? then are you advocating illegalizing obesity and type 2 diabetes?

I just think the discussion and polity is varied and nuanced, and I don't trust all the people who want to shut down all discussion in favor of a weird monoculture

When people say "clog up the hospitals" they're talking about situations where patients are turned away not only from a local hospital, but every hospital in the state because all beds are occupied by Covid patients. I'm not aware of obesity or type 2 diabetes having this impact on our healthcare system.
