No they aren’t. Also, for those who are obese, they shouldn’t get to die for your “freedom”.

I suppose their deaths are okay, because they aren’t tiny?

“ So I’ve alluded to what’s been going on with my family and people have reached out with concern. I figured I should just explain.

My sister, who’s an urgent care doc and sees multiple (mostly unvaxxed) covid cases a day, got breakthrough covid.

Then my vaxxed parents got it.”

His parents have no symptoms, his sister got the worst of it, but it wasn’t bad, because she was vaccinated.

“It’s all been very discouraging but on the other hand: He’s freakin alive. If he and my mom weren’t vaxxed I’m sure he wouldn’t be.

But all of this—the breakthrough infections of my sister and my parents—that’s 100% on those who’ve refused to comply with BASIC public health.

My sister said when Delta was rising she was getting nonstop people coming in to get tests for vacations. Unvaccinated people who wanted to see friends and have fun. She was reminding people to wear masks right. Hearing people complain about all the constraints on their freedom.

Antivaxxers and antimaskers: The ripple effects of your “I want my freedom” ******** is not just death and illness for you and your loved ones. You’ve been ruining it for everyone: Twisting our society into a pandemic pretzel. Breaking our healthcare system. Shredding doctors.

Even people who are vaxxed and masked are being slammed by the impact of your narcissistic irresponsibility. YOUR freedom to refuse basic steps to protect society is destroying ALL OF OUR freedoms.

WW2 sacrifice made the Greatest Generation.

You’ve proven yourselves the Worst.

To be clear: My vaxxed parents had no symptoms. Not even a cough. My sister had it the worst (fever, chills, wheezing, loss of taste) but even then—the vaxx kept her from serious illness. And she was probably most exposed given her job, if that makes a difference. She’s fine now.“

Should we force them to lose weight? Or just refuse to allow them to be treated?

How about pushing for national mandates on weight loss?
Or having their employers threaten to fire them if they don't lose weight?
OR limiting how much food they can order at a restaurant? Or even limiting their access to restaurants?
Or requiring them to show weight loss passport detailing how much weight they lost in a month before they can eat at a restaurant?
OR shaming them for the humongous cost that the obesity epidemic and its attendant diseases have on our healthcare system?

See, if we did that, we would be operating with the same nazi mindset the vaxx pushers are currently operating.

We have to be different. We have to be better. We are better.

I would vote for an anti obesity mandate

The drain on our healthcare system is just too much. Not too mention the cultural degradation.
