However, we are not talking about "the unvaccinated", rather about "a tiny unfortunate fraction of unvaccinated people". There are 4,690 covid patients in ICU beds and 25M unvaccinated people. Assuming all covid ICU patients are unvaccinated, the covid ICU incidence rate within the unvaccinated population is 0.02%.
For an analogy, we could reason that because the prison population skews 90/10 male/female, all males should either undergo a vasectomy, or pay a recurring 10k euro fine. I hope this is obviously unethical.
Yes the point is to make sure that those ICU capacity which is very small and normally enough would and is struggling due to covid and vaccination helps.
What is so hard to understand?
We banned toxic paint, we enforce certain vaccines (polio, measles)
It's only logical to enforce a vaccine on people.
Same as you will get reanimated when you have an accident.
We formed and created rules around our society for a long time and those limitations are here for the good of all of us.
A society can't be forced to have a medical oath and in parallel has to watch when people don't play along.
You expect us to do the best to help you in an emergency and in parallel expect total freedom?
Not how our society works. Srsly get over it.

What "narrative"? What are you even talking about?
No-one, including the person you responded to, has claimed that vaccinated people can't get sick. The claim (backed by statistics) is that the unvaccinated are being hospitalized at a much higher rate and for a much longer duration.
You're arguing a point that no-one is disagreeing with.
