Socialized healthcare comes with very few obligations. You can be as stupid as you want and still get care when you hurt yourself. The difference here is that you run the risk of creating a situation where you are denying others access to healthcare. The system can be overwhelmed.
Have you ever been a volunteer firefighter? It still requires a high standard of skill and training, the commitment is the same really. It's not like they deal with emergencies that are of lower severity than full-time firefighters.
If you watch his videos you'll learn that he's not opposed to vaccines rather takes issue with the fact that he has to reveal private medical information and that basically he has no choice but to be vaccinated against his will.
There was no mention of the volunteer aspect. "Canadian Firefighter FIRED" sounds like he lost his livelihood.
I have watched his videos. He wants an academic debate on a single narrow aspect of the issue, but I didn't hear anything about overwhelming the health care system.
Well, he's Canadian, was a firefighter, and was fired. So the title is factually correct. Are you disputing that a volunteer firefighter is not a "real" firefighter?
I just provide a link to the numbers. They are right on the page, if you care to look at them. Here are today's: https://covid-19.ontario.ca/data. All those unvaccinated cases are coming from a pretty small proportion of the population, and that proportion is right on the page too.
I'm not twisting anything. The numbers are right in front of you.
"all those" are/were a few hundred very elderly or people with serious underlying health issues who probably would still be in hospital if they were vaccinated. Not everyone can get vaccinated stupid.
Honestly I thought you were over this when your racism toward black BIPOCs and Liberal-voting 40-something Karens was exposed.
It is a human right to decide your own medical care.
I really really hope you're vaxxed and boostered, you are in for a shock when you find out what these so called vaccines have done to your immune system.
Do you buy car insurance? Any kind of insurance? If you do you're asking other people to cover for you if you need extra money to fix or replace something.
If you live in Canada do you pay all the costs when you go to the doctor or the hospital, or does your provincial or territorial healthcare plan cover most or all of it?
Or follow the provided links and see what the numbers are for yourself. Omicron may be changing the game but it isn't crystal clear yet whether it's going to be easier or harder on our shaky healthcare system. Better to be cautious than overconfident.
Here's his channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLOQgg8pvuMKBaa16xWRBmg
"...the risk of being unvaccinated now is lower than it was in April or May..."
oops. That didn't age very well.
Then there's the old "either the vaccines work or they don't" red herring. Wouldn't it be nice if it was that simple?
He says the position he lost was "part-time...volunteer" https://youtu.be/yZAWCfJq9zY?t=285

But misleading.
Why do you say that?
How is it "misleading" if it's 100% factually correct?
Misleading is how you twist and distort statistics about "unvaccinated" hospitalizations.
Nice to see you sober.
Same thing. Factually correct, I hope.

You're completely retarded.

Vulnerable people have rights too. Show me the legislation you're referring to.
And you know this how? So far you haven't made a very strong case.
Do you buy car insurance? Any kind of insurance? If you do you're asking other people to cover for you if you need extra money to fix or replace something.

You're posting in OmegaCanada, so you must be one too.
