Yes, personal freedom is to me infinitely more important than the health of others.

Is your freedom primary?
Like if a group of people banded together and said that they didn't want to associate with unvaccinated people, should they have the freedom to do that without interference from the unvaccinated?

And our personal freedoms are worth enough to us to justify limiting our exposure to people like you. You have no right to impose yourself on us.

If that were true, and you were willing to allow me the same level of freedom as you demand for yourself then surely my freedom to harm you trumps your well-being?

Your freedom to attack me physically? No, because you don't have to do anything not to attack me - you just don't.
Your freedom not to get vaccinated? Evidently, since getting vaccinated is a medical procedure. I can't force you to go through it.

Freedom *noun* the power to act, think and speak as one wants.
I can physically attack you if I want to and in your very own words my freedom is infinitely more important than your health.
What is confusing you?

I suppose you also think Typhoid Mary got a raw deal?
What on earth makes you think your personal freedom is more important than the health of others?
You have no right to harm others.
