Ah, yes. Obesity, that problem that can be solved with a free, walk-in appointment at any drugstore in the country.
These two things are a perfect, 1:1 analogy.

How about riding a motorcycle? It's not addictive or difficult to avoid. All you have to do is... not do it. So do motorcycle riders share similar responsibility because they're choosing to do something that also puts them at significantly higher risk of ending up in the hospital?
I'm also in favor of vaccination btw, but against the shaming.
Obese people have a much higher rate of severe illness that requires hospitalization. Filling up hospitals unnecessarily kills people, and delays preventative care.
People who are voluntarily obese without a medical necessity are, to be clear, 1) categorically stupid 2) responsible for the injury and death of others.
