17 Black Billionaires of 2021

[freeloader]

I am vaccinated. I am also an asthmatic who has a history of getting pneumonia because of asthma, allergies, and other issues I have. I live in a state with virtually no ICU beds. My doctor gave me the pneumonia vaccine (normally only given to people 60+) because he advised me that, if I get a bad pneumonia and need to be hospitalized, there is an excellent chance I won’t get a bed. They are being used by non-vaccinated Covid patients. If I get pneumonia because people like LevelUP exercise their freedom not to get vaccinated, there is an excellent chance I will die.

I have 2 children, one of whom has a significant health issue. She is too young to get the vaccine. Would Covid kill her? Probably not, but there is an excellent chance that it would cause significant damage to her lungs. She might never be able to run or swim again—that’s that the pediatrician said.

I had a person who I worked with whose wife got Covid. He needed surgery put postponed it to take care of her. Covid ended up killing her. He tried to schedule his surgery but wasn’t able to because his surgery was not high enough priority because hospitals were filled with people who have Covid. He died recently and his doctor said that Covid killed him, even though he was vaccinated and never got the disease.

Yeah, your refusal to be a decent human being and a reasonable member of society directly impacts me. I was taught that my personal freedoms extend as far as my arms length. I am not going to tell you what you can do in your home. You can smoke, smoke weed, have sex with anybody you want (of age and consenting), etc, etc, etc. Let me put it this way: you have right in many places to openly carry a gun. But you don’t have a right to use it. At the point where you start pointing that gun at people or start pulling the trigger (except in VERY limited circumstances), your rights are DONE. When you cough on me and your actions pose an imminent and deadly threat to me, when your actions (or rather your inactions) kill somebody that I worked with, you have abdicated any right that you have to your personal freedoms, so far as I am concerned.
