To Covid Vax or Not to Covid Vax

Firstly, I did not get Vaxed.
I wasn't brainwashed into not wanting it by Fox News or Qanon.
I feel it was pushed through too quickly. There hasn't been enough time, in my personal opinion, to know what the big picture will bring.

A few things bother me about the many arguments I have participated in and seen on here regarding this.
If a person wants to take measures to attempt to not get this virus than by all means get the Vax. Why do I have to get it for you to be safe from it??? This confuses me.

The last thing I saw mentioned the over crowded E-Rooms because of the un-vaxed getting the virus. Wouldn't this imply that we should also ban mass transit being as if a bus or train has a crash then more people than an E-Room can handle could need treatment??

It seems to be an easy choice either way you lean but proof dictates that it isn't that simple.
No one is arguing over the Flu Vax. Aren't people worried that if I don't get it then they may contract it even though they have taken that Vax??

Apparently I am missing a keystone in my tunnel because I am lost on this.

Here's the deal with the overcrowded hospitals thing.

We can handle the odd bus crash. It's bad but you can normally fly people around or fill up hospital space with these emergency situations.

If you add covid to that, the beds are -already full-. So where do you send the people from the bus crash?

Vaccines reduce the number of hospitalizations from covid because if you get covid, you probably won't get as sick.

Are vaccines zero-risk? No, but covid is provably worse.

Covid is also not going anywhere, and we will all eventually get it.
