Why we need the vaccine

[DustMan]

That's a defeatist attitude Gallowmere, the government can't just say "Whoever die's, die's, fuck em, fend for yourselves", the government enacts policy based on voter opinion, so your opinion matters and if it's not rooted in science, it's rooted in ignorance, so lets not base our opinions around anything other than scientific expertise before we end up with anymore deaths.

Excuse my lack of candor, but the situation is serious, there isn't any room for laymen conjecture when the outcome is death and suffering. Vaccines are effective and will reduce death and suffering.

The government may not be able to, but I certainly can.
I will admit to being Darwinian to a fault. I just can’t be bothered to find tragedy in the weakest among us being weeded out en masse, when propping up said weakest for generations absolutely explains a lot of the resource problems that we face in our current society.
I’ll stop before some smartass tries to equate “survival of the best adapted” to misguided ass eugenics programs (that had absolutely fuck all to do with the principles I am talking about, by the way), and just say at some point, we’re going to reach the final tipping point for unsustainable expenditure versus return. I just hope it’s after all of us here are long dead and gone.
