Who thinks that it would be right to lock down just the unvaccinated if cases rise here in the UK? Explain why?

Whenever I can get them and genuinely I've had them every year since I was 30. You've also got to bear in mind that flu is not as prevalent as Covid, nor is it as virulent - but you know... that's by the by isn't it? |
I presume you have been advised to have the flu vaccines because you have an underlying condition that leaves you particularly vulnerable to it? If not, why would you? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

1) I put it to you that you don't care about the unvaccinated, but care more about winning your argument. If you care about me, don't lock me down. If I feel at risk, I'll get vaccinated. It is not for you to decide to protect me.
2) If you are vaccinated, why worry?
3) Whilst before vaccines that may have been the case, now it is highly unlikely that the vaccinated will be hospitalised by Covid. Before Covid, the NHS was overwhelmed every winter anyway. This possibility, or likelihood, isn't about Covid now. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Because I don't want to infect people with Flu? It's a vaccine and the disease is present where I'm present. Why wouldn't I take it? Same with any vaccine really. |
Well, do you?
What do you say to those who don't get flu vaccinations regularly? Do you think the government should pressure them to do so? What kind of pressure? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

^^^It's more to do with overwhelming the already stretched health service.
Flu jab? I have them purely for selfish reasons...even though their efficacy isn't brilliant.
Had it and wouldn't wish it upon anyone else. Took months for me to return to fighting fit.
My guess is work don't care if I turn-in full of any type of lergy but may act if that lergy knocks out most of the workforce.
'You look rough mate'
Yes, been up most of the night puking and crapping and sweats like etc etc
'Well done you for giving us the opportunity to share your illness'
Wouldn't mind but we get full sick pay and it only matters to H.R if you're ill on a Monday or a Friday or have 5 consecutive days off.
Me?
I don't go in if I'm ill. Touch wood, not been off for 4 years.
Lost 2 old workmates to covid.

Straw man I'm afraid. I have never said it was a hoax. But if you've been vaccinated, the argument goes you won't get seriously ill from it.
I'm very jealous of all you people for who it's all clear cut. I'm not that smart and many of the issues arising raise a lot of questions for me.
What do you think about further lockdowns at this stage of the game Pat? What about locking down just us unvaccinated, whether we take our own precautions or not? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Sorry if you thought all of that was directed at you...it wasn't.
Most things are a bit of a gamble are they not.
This occasion I chose to gamble on a vaccine that may/maynot improve my 4g signal.
Lockdowns aren't required if people used their noggins a bit more.
I'm keeping a low profile...as in not going to gigs or the flicks.
Meeting up with friends but no tongues just yet.
Drastic measures like the previous lockdowns were put in place because too many people were falling ill. I'm vaxxed but as you said it doesn't mean I won't suffer.
The unvaxxed should do as they please but hopefully bear in mind that the lergy is about so maybe be sensible.
'Coughs and sneezes spread diseases so use your handkerchief' ...that's what I learned in Primary school.
If wearing a mask when you're nipping into the shop helps a wee bit then no bother...wash yer mitts and keep your balls fresh. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

It's not necessarily about you.
Do you care about people who cant get NHS services for other health conditions because the NHS is backed up with the unvaccinated? |
Sorry, I didn't mean "me" literally. It doesn't matter what happens to me as far as I'm concerned. But I do worry about what lockdowns have done to others who are more deserving, and what they have done to society in general.
But maybe it is a price that has to be paid. Lockdowns don't really affect me much, so I probably shouldn't have a say in the matter. I just mull these things over, and much of what I post is just thinking aloud to see how others think.
Sigh. I don't mind personally being a low priority for the NHS. Had my fair share, and still don't look after myself properly - still a smoker ffs! Which is partly why I'm still not registered with a GP. You shouldn't pay too much attention to what I care about. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Austria going for compulsory vaccines. Good on them. I would say the same here but I do like the fact Darwin can get involved.
