Should the unvaccinated not be treated in the hospitals? Why?

No, they should not be treated; neither should obese people, smokers, drinkers, the sexually profligate, motorcylists and bicyclists who don't wear helmets, any workers who aren't wearing full (and more) PPE, nudists who get skin cancer, or anyone who does any kind of risky activity.

At least, that is the logical extension of such fools as Don leMon, of CNN, [i]et.al.[/i] The straw man in his silliness is amazingly dumber than the straw scarecrow in "The Wizard of Oz."
@billybcgn25 I agree. These people are stupid, and they're clogging up our hospital beds, but there's a moral obligation there.

@LordShadowfire Well, I was just pointing out Don Lemon's and company's logical fallacy. They seem to want only the healthy, and those who live healthy lives to be treated. In other words, only they have the right to health care, because they are the only ones who live good lives; they are morally superior to you and me. Just ask 'em. 😉🤣
@billybcgn25 "You and me," implying that I haven't been vaccinated, and haven't been following social distancing recommendations and wearing a mask.

It's not so much that people who do that are morally superior. It's just that we're smarter.

@LordShadowfire Well, given that I had the distinguished pleasure to enjoy not smelling my farts back last December (the ChiCom virus shot hadn't made it out to Missouri yet--at least not where we live), and that I was tested 3 weeks ago for the appropriate antibodies (and was found to have them), and that the Cleveland Clinic and Israeli studies suggest that natural antibodies and the resultant T-cells seem to be superior to the vaccine (partly because the natural antibodies are broad spectrum, rather than tailored to just the "original" variant of the virus), I have determined that I'm sufficiently protected.

And the thing is, unless you live your life exactly in verbatim compliance with Don Lemon's preferences, you don't deserve to live! You are his enemy. If you violate just one jot or tittle of the law as he reads it, you're evil. Morally inferior. It is to weep, that it has come to that. Progressives are just the most morally superior people in the world. Until one of their own cancels them. Me? Nah. I accept people as people.
@billybcgn25 Yeah, I think we're done here.
