Perhaps if the anti-vaxxers were treated like the victims of the Holocaust, they would change their minds. They could then be rounded up, quarantined in "ghettos" and forced to wear a badge with a red circle with a line drawn across it over a picture of a syringe. Eventually, they would be euthanized if they refused to be vaccinated after spending years in an anti-vaxxer camp being beaten, starved and tortured with unethical medical experiments. Almost forgot. When you enter the camp, everyone's head will be shaved and they will wear prison uniforms. Those who die from illness, torture, starvation will be dumped into a large hole in the ground and buried in mass graves. Those who are euthanized will have all their gold teeth removed as well. Lamp shades would be made of the tattooed skin of dead people. It is an insult to everyone who was murdered during the Holocaust to equate it with a vaccine mandate during a pandemic. People who make this comparison should have their tongues cut off.

I have had the vaccines for polio, diphtheria, pertussis, pneumonia, hepatitis, Tetanus, shingles, COVID, HPV, and every year the flu vaccine.

I was born in the 70s but I try to tell people about this. I grew up not having to fear so many diseases because the people before me got vaccinated and made me do the same.

Nobody can say "Forget the grass man. I wanna live free!" The neighbors would be like "It's called being neighborly as your house effects our houses and their value." We all have collective responsibility all the time. It's not just PERSONAL responsibility. This country was founded on Life, Liberty, and the Right to Own Property IN THAT ORDER.

Everyone in the United States needs to have about a dozen vaccines before they turn 6 years old, so why is it so many are opposed to the Coronavirus vaccine/mandates yet they are alright with the 1s for Smallpox, Polio, Chickenpox, and Measles just to name a few? Furthermore, vaccine mandates are older then the United States itself since George Washington required all of his troops in the Continental Army to get vaccinated and still to this day the military requires all of the troops to get vaccinated to serve, so this idea that the government shouldn't require vaccinate mandates is wrong since they've been doing it forever and it's pretty much the patriotic thing to do.

Condolences to your brother. But with Omicron in SA, a population of 60million there are only a total of 150people on oxygen right now. And not all of those are covid cases, I'm talking a total of 150 for any reason are on oxygen. Our of those 150 on oxygen I assume there's a mix of vaccinated and unvaccinated. The vaccine comes with risk too, and taking the vaccine you are 100% exposed to those risks, and in return get the benefit of protection for a few months. You need to also factor in the probability of not catching covid over the following 6 month period in your calculation of expected return of benefit. Search in youtube Norman Fenton. He is a qualified statistician and he will explain to you the difference between relative and absolute risk and apply those numbers to the vaccine

Absolutely. There is medical advances to "pre historic medicines" that need to be taken seriously, while you should also consider the options for those medical advances that havent been made.
