Fair enough.
I don't know who is correct and it will all come out in the wash. For me though I believe the official line i.e. huge numbers of infections could occur due to Omnicron varient and this will cause the hospital resources to be overrun.
Where I come from GT 50 per cent of available hospital beds in intensive care are taken up by 8 per cent of the population (the unvaccinated). This results in restrictions being imposed on society (to keep hospital admissions down) and also on other treatments being postponed. For ex, a lung transplant (lung was available and everyone ready to go) was cancelled three weeks ago in a local hospital because resources were required for COVID patients. Also, cancer treatments, etc... are being cancelled.
If that 8% were vaccinated then that lung transplant would have gone ahead.
For me people should get vaccinated, even if it means 10 jabs.
As ever that is only my point of view and I do respect yours. It also makes sense to me.
