No, I am not. People are paying for the medical resources they use. Nice try though (I would learn more about social policy, the point of social policy is that it is for everyone, not people who agree to a medical procedure, not people who have political views you agree with...this is why the US doesn't have a welfare state, because people believe money will go to people "who aren't like them").

People aren't being denied COVID treatment so the social policy isn't being violated. Unless getting your feelings hurt by Twitter comments is a violation of social policy?

The argument was against those who wanted to take away said treatment, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Okay, so you don't understand what social policy is either. Wow.

They are also using resources that should be utilized by people that have done the right thing and taken a vaccine to prevent hospitalization.

In my opinion, the unvaccinated should simply not go to the hospital if they get infected and instead recuperate at home. Sadly, they’ll continue to leech off of the work of those that have taken the bare minimum steps.
