Study Finds Prejudice Against COVID-19 Unvaccinated Around the World

What did? Getting the vaccine? Sorry, I am not reading that properly.
Going to the med center, giving them my vaccine records or permission to get them (that was a while ago, so I don't remember,) and then getting the TB test. I think that I had to go home for a day or two and then come back to show them that the test spot wasn't all swelled up. I was TB negative.

Oh., Thnx.

We got the two vaccines and the two boosters. Went at good times when they were basically empty and it was under a half hour each time, including waiting for adverse reactions (15 mins) after the shots. We have a nationwide Covid Record system here so we can go there and submit proof of our vaccinations to people like Immigration, Customs, etc. Takes a couple of minutes. We emailed them to ETSA which is the US group that checks foreigners vaccinations records and we will be emailed passes or whatever that will allow us through US Customs when we arrive. It is all incredibly simple.

Same here. We get a card that I keep with my work stuff in a ziplock bag. The fields on mine are now filled up with boosters. When first the card is full, you should get a free hamburger or something. I won permission to walk around work onsite without a mask unless I have symptoms of a cold.

They did some kind of reward thing here to get people to vaccinate when it first started. The smart people that already were vaccinated got mad and when the next vaccine was ready some waited until that reward was offered again before getting vaccinated. I thought that was stupid and like most people just got the vaccine.

Free kebabs, burgers and prizes: Vaccination reward schemes spreading across New Zealand


$20 incentive for every vaccination until the end of November

 
So the modern day bigots are Covid vaccinated people around the world. I question how someone knows if you’re vaccinated or not, but the study used virtual people as examples in a host of questions.

Interesting read.

People who have received COVID-19 vaccines express discriminatory attitudes toward unvaccinated people, a new study of over 15,000 citizens of 21 countries across the world suggests.

“Individuals who comply with the advice of health authorities morally condemn the unvaccinated for violating a social contract in the midst of a crisis,” two Denmark-based scientists wrote in their paper, published Thursday in Nature. “Those who refuse vaccines report that they feel discriminated and pressured against their will.”

To measure COVID-19 vaccination status-based prejudice, researchers asked some 15,233 people how they feel if a close relatives of theirs are going to marry a vaccinated or unvaccinated person—a question that has long been used in surveys on discrimination along racial, ethnic, or partisan lines.

The Findings​

Across six countries—Germany, India, Indonesia, Morocco, South Africa, and the United Kingdom—selected to represent both affluent Western and developing non-Western nations, the unvaccinated were found to be disliked among vaccinated people (14 percentage points) as much as people with drug addiction (15 percentage points), and significantly more so than people who had been in prison (10 percentage points), atheists (7 percentage points), or people with mental illness (6 percentage points).


People generally dont respect stupid, irresponsible people. Esp. those with the opportunity to educate themselves.
 
If you are unaware of the stark differences between typhoid and coronaviruses; how they are transmitted within a human population; how they can be mitigated and/treated. Then YES, apples to oranges.

pancreatic cancer = "disease"
basal cell carcinoma = "disease"

not apples and apples...

?? Those cancers are not spread person to person...so your attempt at analogy fails.
 
common cold (contagious infection 1% mortality rate)= "human to human spread"
ebola virus (contagious infection 50% mortality rate)= "human to human spread"

Therefore the EFFECT of comparing the two above should be considered 'apples to oranges'.


Your comparison of typhoid to covid19 is an apples to oranges comparison, especially in terms of
how one should consider the risk, the prevention, and the treatment of each viral infection.

Glad to be of help. Thank you for your response.

Ah, now backpedaling.

It's irresponsible for anyone to present themselves in contact with others if they have a transmissible disease, even colds. There is no vaccine for colds. And when I had to be on site for work, it infuriated me when people with colds, etc were there instead of at home. Esp. parents, because they spread their kid's microbes everywhere.

There is a vaccine for covid which 'reduces' transmissibility and, in conjunction with other measures, helps ensure more protection for others. It may not mean much for most people, but for the vulnerable or those that go home to the elderly/vulnerable...it means LIFE.
 
I avoid anything which is basically an exercise in submission. Things need to make sense, they must be logical.
Not everything about vaccines are bad.... and neither are they as we know a silver bullet. Which is why we should
all respect individual choice.

If I wanted to be told what to do 24/7, then I would move to China.;)

Are you posting that the covid vaccines didnt make sense, werent logical...both in the decision to develop them and in their distribution?

Are you also of the belief that there were claims the vaccines would be 'silver bullets?' I would like to see sources for this, if so.
 
Its called bigotry

Applied towards intentional behavior? So what? Stupid and irresponsible can be 'fixed,' educated, remedied. If people choose to remain stupid and irresponsible who would respect that?
 
That is just ridiculous. You follow laws and our wives are always right. That is not submission. It just makes sense.

Interesting.
 
Whether I or anyone else is new will have no bearing on logic, but please, go ahead.



Not everything is an either or choice, basic reasoning teaches us that, and your examples are a perfect demonstration of failed reasoning.

Nobody has a right to drive any speed they want on public roads as that may affect other people. However, if I pay the permits, invest in the rocket car, and then go out to the Bonneville salt flats in Utah, then if it may be MY choice to attempt to break the land speed record, putting MYSELF at risk, and not you at risk--- and then that is a personal choice, not your choice.

Same with most of your other examples, not all are black or white decisions. And since we know now that covid vaccines and boosters have VERY limited long term benefit, then yeah, if somebody chooses to not ride on the covid vaccine merry-go-round, then that is their choice to pass, why would I or anyone else care? Because guess what? You can still get covid even after many vaccines and boosters, and from other people who are vaccinated and boosted.

This is why I consider this vaccine a personal choice each should make for themselves depending on their own risks... or lack of risk. Why do you care if somebody else d to have their own choice? My mother has been multiple vaxxed and boosted and is in the hospital with covid right now. My sister and her kids also have it, and they too multiple boosted.

I believe it is nobody else's business to intrude in a person's personal choices for their own body. Wait, where have I heard that before? Hmmm...



I hope my explanation helped?
Thank you for your response.
Why should you care whether a person vaccinated.
1. Your elderly mom is in the hospital with covid. If the hospital was overwhelmed with unvaccinated people who would not be in the hospital if vaccinated...you moms care would suffer. During heights of tge pandemic medical providers had to decide who got lifesaving equipment and who did not. Meaning your mom might have been one of those that did not get full care.
2. The unvaccinated create a resevoir where more deadly and or infectious variants are more likely to develop. Creating a risk for your family.
3. The unvaccinated are more likely to transmit the disease to one of your loved ones.
4. The unvaccinated that then need medical help create more expense for society resulting in higher insurance premiums for you and your family.
Down the road they are more likely to have expensive organ failures.

All of this is backed by good scientific evidence.
 
Why one is prejudice is irrelevant.
So schools should hire people convicted of child molesting because they should not be prejudiced.?

Your ridiculous false equivalences are maddeningly annoying now

This is how sick the holier than thou vaxxed up people are today. Despicable

People believe that those who avoid getting the covid vaccine are endangering their fellow humans.
 
Proof of the bolded above. Especially since Covid is over
Covid won't be over completely until we figure out how to eliminate this kind of virus entirely.

So far, we just know how to control it by vaccinating people against it, and requesting or demanding that those who get it isolate themselves to avoid spreading it.
At this point I expect it may end up like the flu vaccine.

kaching, kaching. CVS and Walgreens are pushing it like a cartel.

Were we ever told the shots would be a lifetime deal and our own immune systems would be shot because of it?
