Put another way, what is the defense, if any, for those who are criticized for being selfish and preventing herd immunity by refusing to get the vaccine?

Honest I am so over this vaccination crap. All you guinea pigs have fun getting in line. I don’t criticize you for your choice, so let it go that others don’t want to get vaccinated.
We all have our reason on why we do or don’t get the shot.
I am not selfish nor am I am not a bad person for not getting the shot and I tried of people trying to bully people into or shaming people into it.
I follow guidelines, wear my mask and social distance and for me it works.
Stop trying to point fingers at people for not jumping on the unknown shot.

I personally don’t get it. The shot doesn’t stop you from getting the virus nor does it stop you from spreading it.....so why are you putting so much faith in it.....it’s truly blows my mind.
