if you refuse to get a covid vaccine without having a valid medical reason you shouldn't be allowed out in public. you are a health risk to everyone else.

(36,745 posts)You get the two jabs, or you get on the bus for the quarantine facilities.
Your choice. Make it NOW.

(11,045 posts)You do realize what you are suggesting? Locking people up in camps to die?
Nice rational DU'er.

(36,745 posts)Get vaccinated and you wont be quarantined.
Simple solution.
Forcibly implies no choice.
There is a choice...GET VACCINATED.

(11,045 posts)Because I understand the atrocities of history and don't wish that on anyone. But you do you. In fact, why use buses? You can put the unclean on trains to take them to your "not concentration, they're quarantine!" camps.

So I'd be fine with some new more aggressive ideas.
Don't worry, they'll NEVER happen. We'll probably just suffer along, and watch more people die. I can't wait to get out of this country.

(9,998 posts)Both are Progressive thinking countries, where quality of life and happiness factors are high.
Both of them did FAR better the last year in handling the pandemic than America. They don't shout about their FREEDOM Bullshit constantly like Americans do. A large segment do not care about the lives of others. Whether it's Guns or a Pandemic, many couldn't care less about others, they just send "Thoughts & Prayers."
Things are bad here, and they're only going to get worse, thanks to the Nutcases that make up a LARGE part of the population. The country isn't going to be United again in my lifetime, and I'd rather not be a part of that.
My parents are in their 80's, so I won't leave as long as they're alive. Hopefully it won't be too late when they do pass, otherwise I guess I'll be stuck here.

(9,998 posts)People were taken from their homes MERELY BECAUSE THEY WERE JEWISH! Not because they refused to take a vaccine that could save the lives of thousands, and get our country back to normal after a 17 month pandemic that's killed 620,000 Americans and counting.
Oh, and MOST of those put in Concentration Camps, did not come out alive. I do not see where the OP suggests putting people in gas chambers, until they can't breathe anymore. Besides, Covid will accomplish that on it's own.
sarisataka
(18,712 posts)a place where large numbers of people (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, refugees, or the members of an ethnic or religious minority) are detained or confined under armed guard
It is not synonymous with extermination camp although the terms have come to be used interchangeably.
We could call them Vaccine Free Isolation Communities (V-FICs for short) if the term concentration camp makes you uncomfortable.

(36,109 posts)People were also taken because they "chose" to be Communists, teachers, artists, leftists, etc

(36,745 posts)At least the anti-vaxxers made a choice, so I can just write them off and not care. Automatically now, my first question on any COVID illness i hear of is Are they vaccinated.
Less CO2 emissions!

Just shaking my head.

(1,495 posts)life much harder for anti-vax people. Should unvaccinated people be allowed to go on cruises, public transportation, or crowded sporting events? They are strutting around, spreading their germs, without masks and infecting others. It's wrong. They should be denied access to restaurants, concerts, indoor areas until they are fully vaccinated. Otherwise, this pandemic will never end. As an immune compromised person, it's terrifying to even go to a grocery store now.

(5,113 posts)and make it so if you have refused a vaccine for non medica reasons then
1) your health insurance isnt required to cover your treatment costs
2) if you get covid an dit destroys your lungs you go to the back of the transplant line
3) if you are quarantined and break it you get fined $250 the first time,escalating from there

(4,448 posts)To do that would require a bill be passed by Congress to modify ACA.
The Republicans would certainly support it, since they want to re-introduce the restrictions on pre-existing conditions.
So such a bill would fly through congress.

Perhaps we could just use boxcars.
