@mahgister - 1) some people do not go to doctors - they obviously don't care about their health, but their carelessness can hurt others by causing health care shortages 2) You don't need a treatment if you are not sick 3)1% is a huge amount of people 4) Did I say anything about shutting down economies, and who says the people who didn't want to get vaxxed would have sought out your preventive treatments or taken vitamin c 5) I was referring to individual personal physicians telling their patients who are not at risk of an adverse reaction to not get vaccinated quacks, not these others you list as scientists. There is a difference between talking heads and scientists and personal physicians who know someone's personal history and have a vested interest in their health 7) they are not mandated - you can go work somewhere else - you can't do that in places like China.
Lastly - mutations seem to be less and less virulent - by not causing as many symptoms, carriers don't isolate and spread it more easily. If they were isolating, it wouldn't spread as fast. That is the theory, and hopefully it will play out by just being a component of the annual flu vaccine, which is not a mandate. The current vaccine is not mandated, there is no punishment for not taking it, just a potential loss of privileges.
