Eighty-five percent of people in Singapore eligible for coronavirus vaccines are fully vaccinated, and 18 percent have received booster shots.

But the Singaporean government said Monday that it will no longer cover the medical costs of people unvaccinated by choice, who make up the bulk of remaining new coronavirus cases and covid-19 hospitalizations in the city-state.

I get it. I really do. But in reality all this will do is prevent people who might just be a little skeptical from getting the vaccine if they overcome their skepticism. Maybe not though, I don't know.

Yes, anti-vaxxers do have a bloodlust. Why do people without sympathy deserve sympathy. Like, I'm against the death penalty, but I don't cry if a criminal gets his ass kicked.

This is confusing on multiple levels.

Firstly, anti-vaxxers don't have bloodlust. the whole logic of them is that, for whatever illogical reason, they believe the vaccine is less safe than getting COVID itself. This obviously goes against all the best data, but it's what they apparently believe. So their choice not to get vaccinated is one of strong ignorance, not of bloodlust.

Did you think anti-vaxxers believed the vaccine was safe and effective, but were refusing it out of a desire to help the virus spread?

This seems like a good thing, but I don't know enough about Singapore's healthcare system to say for sure. Do any other behaviors make you ineligible to have the state pay for costs?

And as long as they aren't denying anybody care, I don't really mind this in theory.

I dont see how this is a good thing.

What becomes the socially acceptable reason to need healthcare? Should we get to the point of making obese, smokers, typeII diabetics, drug addicts etc pay for their own health care since most of the time its their own doing and choices that lead them to needing the healthcare?

Why don't they just cane the anti-vaxxers until they comply.

None of those things are contagious global pandemics that shut down the entire planet, those are personal choices that affect nobody but the individual.

At this point, with almost everyone having a small personal computer right in their pocket, believing in any of the misinformation is inexcusable. I'd bet a lot if not most vocal anti-vaxers are doing it out of spite and childish defiance like a kid not wanting to eat their vegetables when told to.

God damn, we need to get over this pandemic and we need to do it fast. Whatever it takes.

This is so obvious and gets pointed out all the time, yet people still want to act like it's the same. It's ridiculous.
