So are overweight persons, people doing bumpy jumping, the non working living from social assistance, the weak of physical body and mind. However society does not discriminate them near as much.
I find your comment on the non vaccinated statistically being a
burden to employers and society as a whole, interesting. Because of
what seems to imply about shared duties within a society.
Not that I disagree with it, but what seems to imply concerning
choices and decisions as a society as a whole. Let me explain...
I am curious about the Netherlands handling of the pandemic. I have been following it along with other countries. The Dutch medical system is regularly mentioned as one of the best in the world, and used as an example by
politicians in the US.
I have also noticed that after 2.5 years of one of the biggest pandemic of
this century, the government seems to have made absolutely zero investment in
IC beds and is flying patients to Germany?
Although politicians mention the unprecedented and the seriousness of the
current situation, there seems to have been no political wish to invest
in medical resources, or make the societal changes required by
the current pandemic.
Maybe the arguments directed to the non vaccinated about their unjustified burden on society, would not be so significantly weakened by the observation that, no efforts were made to prioritize and expand medical capacity. Or the observation
that in the middle of one unprecedented pandemic, the Dutch state seems to have recently prioritized to spend 200 million dollars on a painting?
So much about choices and societal burdens?
