And these days, "personal choice" means religious liberties which translates to religious privilege. In Texas, your child cannot enroll in public school unless they have vaccinations - unless they get a religious exemption and in some states, parents are allowed to let their children die because they literally believe in "woo" and they won't vaccinate "their" children. Children have been killed simply because of what their parents believe. This has been happening for years!
That said, I would support a law that restricts rights of people who don't vaccinate.
This. So much. No shirt, no shoes, no vax-proof card, no service.
@ Ben... (serious question, and lord help me I have no idea why I'm asking it), why is the "freedom to choose" the option of getting very fucking sick, and potentially passing it along to others, so important to you?
Regardless of your answer, I trust then you believe and respect medical professionals should have the freedom of choice whether to treat you if you're sick? Businesses also should have the freedom of choice as to whether to allow you into their premises or to provide you goods or services?
It's quite important in certain aspects of life to me. And I do understand that, it's understanding the good and bad of that "freedom of choice", it's balancing this...Freedom and Security, you can't have one or the other. The freer you are the more you can do whatever you want. the more security you have to help protect you and others, the collective, the less freedom you have to do things in order to help protect the collective. Which in turn, As people have the "freedom of choice" to not get vaccinated, so does the Company have the "freedom of choice" to deny you. But, is it humane to deny these basic necessities. Are you willing to make more people homeless because they can not get those essential necessities. Are you gonna treat them exactly like the Lepers?
And according to
this, Doctors can't deny you service in an Emergency Room, and can only deny you service based of these reasons:
There are a few reasons why a doctor can refuse to treat a patient. The most obvious of these is if the doctor does not treat patients with the patient’s specific condition. For example, an individual suffering from a throat infection cannot realistically expect a gynecologist to diagnose and treat his or her condition.
Other reasons why a doctor can deny treatment to an individual include:
The patient exhibits drug-seeking behavior;
The patient is disruptive or otherwise difficult to handle;
The doctor does not have a working relationship with the patient’s healthcare insurance provider;
The doctor’s personal convictions, such as a doctor refusing to perform an abortion for religious reasons or refusing to prescribe narcotics for pain; and
The patient or the patient’s spouse is a medical malpractice lawyer.
However, there are cases where doctors may not refuse to treat patients. In emergency situations, responding doctors and other healthcare providers are required to stabilize the patient’s condition regardless of the patient’s ability to pay for the treatment or provide proof of insurance. This is required by the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA).
So due to EMTALA, These covid-19 cases that are going through the ER can't be denied service, until they get stabilized.
And these days, "personal choice" means religious liberties which translates to religious privilege.

As much as you may not like it. Christianity, is a religion, and is protected under the Civil Rights Act.
There is one exception to the healthcare provider’s right to deny services: discrimination. Under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it is illegal for a healthcare provider to deny a patient treatment based on the patient’s age, sex, race, sexual orientation, religion, or national origin.
I am not Anti-Vaxx at all. I understand it's important for certain things. For me, it's too soon. So I am going to wait, and if things get better while I am waiting, then cool. I don't have to take it, like I do not take a Flu Vaccine. and if I get sick, I will not go out. The thing with Covid, is the mimicking of Walking Pneumonia. I wonder how many people actually did have Walking Pneumonia before covid-19?
