Should Hospitals have the right to turn away Covid patients from those who have chosen to be unvaccinated?

Why should someone who makes the decision to not be vaccinated take a bed and be treated from someone who has taken precautions and had a breakthrough case?
Shouldn't the unvaccinated just stay home and deal with this virus on their own?

That’s a heartless, cold way of dealing with human life. Turn people away because they didn’t do what I think is the right course of action.
Maybe next time you break a leg doing something stupid you should ask yourself if going to seek treatment is appropriate.

@nonsensiclesnail Breaking a leg doing something stupid isn't endangering others lives.

@independentone what about someone who causes a pile up on the road because of their road rage. Should they not be treated at a hospital?
@HellsBelle If someone has the right to risk others lives by not being vaccinated, shouldn't they also have the right to have road rage? Hey, freedom of choice and all that.

@independentone you ignored the question? You said, breaking a leg isn't endangering others and therefore should be treated. I named an example of someone who endangers others (on the road causing an accident) and asked, should they be untreated? Pertaining to your original post
@HellsBelle Victims yes, road rage guy, no. Same with drunk drivers, treat any victims, but not the drunk. Just my opinion, right or wrong.

@HellsBelle yeah, I know, kind of harsh isn't it?
HellsBelle · 31-35, F
@independentone and ethically and morally wrong but hey, looking at your age you dont have much longer before you meet your maker. Someone else can judge you.
@HellsBelle Oh, so you should be entitled to your opinion, but I shouldn't be entitled to mine?

@independentone you can do whatever you want. I just said that i am not your judge
@independentone obviously not the same but going on about infectious disease was going to take too many words. Still, hospitals are not for the non contagious. And turning people away based on their misunderstandings/ ignorance is icy cold.

@HellsBelle the people who want to control others lives will not understand your logic. There are so many examples that are not regulated, but if you state them, the pro vaccination people will not understand because it invalidates their non logical belief.

@AnnSteve I agree with you look at how many people think they should tell a woman what to do with her body.

Good point. Maybe that dude could get some veterinarian fallen on hard times to look at his leg. @nonsensiclesnail

@nonsensiclesnail the person who didn't get the vaccination is also cold and heartless because they don't care about other people who they might infect or that they will drag this virus out until it mutates into a virus that the vaccines do not help with at all. Then we will all be exposed to it with no protection against it and we will have the anti vaxxers morons to blame for a terrible sickness.
@fddlpej I don’t disagree.
You know, some form small pox was around for nearly 3000 years. Once a vaccine was created it took 40 years before it wasn’t a general concern any longer. My point being that this is a complicated thing. There are no quick, simple solutions to this disease. Being combative is only going to make the situation harder. Making people see the lives as idiots and monsters will in no way improve their choices.

@nonsensiclesnail being nice to stupid people hasn't helped. They just think you are wrong until they end up on a ventilator and then they might see the light.
@fddlpej you know, being nice to stupid people is hard. But we do it anyways, everyday, because stupid isn’t a reason to harm or humiliate.

@Elevatorpitches you have more of a right to be there for your hangnail than unvaccinated people have for being there after getting covid.
