"The unvaccinated in the United States are imposing costs and harms on the rest of us. They are, as they incessantly point out, free to choose not to vaccinate. But they should pay for their poor choices that hurt others." https://www.barrons.com/articles/amazon-bezos-richest-person-lvmh-arnault-51628003655 CORONAVIRUS | COMMENTARY Vaccine Mandates Aren’t Enough.

Reiss Updated Aug. 3, 2021 8:49 am ET / Original Aug. 3, 2021 5:00 am ET We impose costs on drivers who don’t stop at stop lights. Why not individuals who decide not to vaccinate?

Malaysian Stupidities in Combating Covid19

Malay Mail: After two days of over 200 Covid-19 daily fatalities, Malaysia records 143 deaths. https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2021/07/28/after-two-days-of-over-200-covid-19-daily-fatalities-malaysia-records-143-d/1993400 "KUALA LUMPUR, July 28 — After breaking the 200-mark of Covid-19 fatalities for two days in a row, Malaysia recorded a drop in deaths at 143 individuals in the last 24 hours." This means that the vaccination has a lot of impact, even the first dose. If this continue, our hospital congestion will be solved. These hospitals are congested because of stupidities, not because of our real situations. Those who are vaccinated, need not be kept at quarantine centres. They can stay at home.

A good sign is the inclusion of vaccination status in statistics which clearly indicated that vaccinated patients were kept in hospitals. What is worrying and reckless is to let unvaccin...

Although we should be proud of how Labuan managed to get herd-immunity, I just cannot look back at the wastes and huge financial and human losses which led to this herd-immunity. What is worse, it shows very clearly that nobody in the world seem to understand what Herd-immunity is all about. Not even professors and doctors are aware of the real purpose of Herd-immunity. The best definition is the crowd-sourced encyclopaedia, Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herd_immunity     Herd immunity (also called herd effect , community immunity , population immunity , or mass immunity ) is a fo...
