I would say that the obese in particular deserve to vilified far more than antivaxxes, because they are doing damage year after year. An estimate 20% of US healthcare costs (~200B/yr) are related adult obesity. Think of how many lives could be saved with that money. These people are essentially murderers based on the externalities they impose on the rest of us.

Hospital Costs and deaths associated with covid are easily surpassed by the obese if you add up just a few years.
