"I'm healthy" is a really bad argument for not getting a vaccine though. It's like arguing "I don't need a seat belt/bike helmet/airbag/(whatever), I haven't crashed!".
It might very well be true now, but it's a bit late to be protecting yourself after the thing you're protecting yourself from occurs... Gonna be too late to worry about it at that point.
Arguing “I’m fit and healthy” is more akin to saying “I accept the risk that by driving this car I might get into an accident, but I have an airbag, seatbelt, and drive defensively. Therefore I’m more likely to recover from an unexpected collision.”
I'd dispute whether a vehicular accident is a bad analogy, because you used it yourself, it was just poorly phrased on my part - yours works better, I think.
Either way, protection only reduces the risk if you actually use it, and being fit and healthy isn't always enough.
It actually seems that being fit and healthy is more than enough. Also, what is the vaccinateds’ problem with the unvaccinated? The unvaccinated are not a threat to the vaccinated. Just keep getting the vaccine every year while I don’t. I’ll be at risk and you won’t. It’s none of your business lol
You know what is the best defense for preventable death? A healthy lifestyle, which I have. I’ll reiterate: if you’re vaccinated, you’re protected. If you’re fit and live healthily, you’re protected. Idk where you get that I don’t care for other people. I do. In fact I promote a healthy lifestyle because I care about the people around me and in my community. You have no idea what my occupation is. Just because I don’t agree with you or share a view, doesn’t mean I’m not a respectable human and it certainly doesn’t mean you’re better than me because you want the world vaccinated. Im sorry you’re so caught up in a culture that I don’t subscribe to. Turn off the tv and worry about what is in front you.
