Unvaxxed people who die from covid (or smoking, or drinking, or riding a motorcycle without a helmet, or whatever) take themselves out of the gene pool, and improve the human species by raising the overall intelligence of same.

It is actually going to be the vaccinated who are taken out of the gene pool, since vaccines in general are known to cause infertility in biological women.

Yes but those are traditionally made vaccines which have been proven to be safe. The covid vaccines are not actually classed as vaccines in the traditional sense as they work in a totally different way as these work by altering the genes. Something which has never been done before as it is only since we have introduced artificial intelligence into the field of medicine has it been possible to do this... So it is still essentially a very large scale experimental form of immunisation which is not exactly classed as a vaccine.
No one knows what the long term effects will be but some leading experts voiced their concerns for them to be silenced by governments who did not want mass panic on their hands.
If anything the immunisation program is more of a pacifier to divert attention away from other more pressing things that are happening at the moment.
Skepticism. Scaremongering. Why do people do it?

OK, I'm going to avoid reading this thread being so I got my booster tomorrow, I'm already nervous about it.
Boosters are half doses so people tend to have milder reactions.
Then how come a few people I know have been ill from the booster? I know one lady who was ill for 3 weeks from having the booster. Surely a vaccine shouldn't make one ill for that long?
Because they had a bit of a stronger reaction to it ?
There isn't one singular one-size-fits-all description of a reaction to ANY vaccine, EVER.

Pardon me if this has already been said. Should a government mandate vaccines? Heck no. Vaccines work by preventing people from getting sick from a virus someone else has. So even though you can get the vaccine, if you don’t get it the worst that happens is YOU get sick.
But the proper role of government is to protect its people. So it’s perfectly acceptable to mandate quarantines to prevent the spread of an infectious disease. The difference in principle is subtle but significant.

Disagree and so does our government and many others. There are already vaccine requirements to attend public school, serve in the military, travel abroad etc.
Someone getting sick with a preventable illness doesn't only affect them. It strains medical resources and takes away medical care from others awaiting cancer treatments, heart procedures, surgeries, dialysis etc. Antivaxxer freedomz people aren't just staying home and accepting the consequences of their actions when they get sick - they're jamming up hospitals and causing a ripple effect on others.

That is true but when it comes to covid vaccines everyone seems to become skeptical for some reason.
Because there are a lot of people in the tinfoil hat industry puking videos and articles onto the internet full of conspiracy theory bs OR politicizing covid and suggesting to people that getting vaccinated or abiding by mitigation measures is something that only the Other Side of the political aisle is supposed to do so they'd better show their loyalty to their political side by refusing and whining about their freedoms.
It's all about selling tinfoil, boner pills, and getting votes.. and unfortunately there are a lot of gullible people buying the bs these people are selling.
