Regarding vaccine passports
The 'vaccinated' are supposedly 'protected' from this virus and its effects, so why should 'vaccinated' people enjoy 'privilege' above those who aren't vaccinated.

All vaccines, not just Covid vaccines, are not immunization tools, or "shields". They provide protection from deadly consequences, or extreme consequences of an infection.
With Covid and the Flu, an immunized human will initially respond based on a couple of things:
1. Number of antibodies.
2. Infection viral load.
It's like you have an army ready to intervene, but is hiding undercover, leaving a couple of dozen sentries outside. If they get attacked by 5 assailants, they will take 5 casualties, or more, causing a little discomfort, but they defeat the enemy with no major damage.
If they get attacked by 50 assailants, they will scream out for help, and die, some guards will come out of hiding, causing some discomfort (mild symptoms), but eventually the reserves take the day and win.
So, if you're not vaccinated, and come into a restaurant shedding a ton of virus, the vaccinated will probably be affected, some will not even notice it, and some will get mild to moderate symptoms.
Bottom line, it's not privilege, it's just that we don't need their fucking viral load, and we want the economy, travel, weddings, our kids back in school, not to look like Darth Vader every day, not to have to shower with our groceries, etc.
Is this too fucking difficult to grasp?
