The price of going unvaccinated is rising. Will that persuade more people to get the jab?
The Dallas Morning News ^ | August 29, 2021 | Mitchell Schnurman

If the health risks of COVID-19 aren’t enough to drive more people to get vaccinated, what about the cost of treatment — or even health insurance?

In June and July, the estimated costs for treating unvaccinated patients hospitalized for COVID were at least $2.3 billion, according to a recent report by researchers at the Kaiser Family Foundation. In Texas, the total probably surpassed $280 million, although researchers acknowledge the actual burden was probably higher in the state and country.

They estimated that 113,000 preventable hospitalizations occurred nationwide at an average cost of $20,000 a person.

What does it matter to these wild-eyed fanatics whether or not our health insurance will go up next year. According to them, all us unvaccinated dirty people will be dead!

I have had the Fauci/China virus.

I have better protection than the shot.

The answer is still no.

There's a nearly-80 year old dude in my neighborhood, an esteemed university professor who is widely pulished on Pollutico and the Hill. He has been 100% pro-vax since the outset, plus wearing an N95 mask for 18 months everywhere he goes. Vaxxed, of course, and probably got a booster shot too.

He just tested positive for COVID this morning.

The lies are collapsing, and the media whores for the Medical-Industrial Complex are freaking out about losing control.

Matches this;

It’s intentional. I’ve had several post-vax land in my ICU with complications (correlated with vax)

And 1/3 of patients admitted for Covid are vaxxed.

You probably won’t hear that on the news though. https://t.co/wXtysgjNai— Dr Mollie James (@molsjames) August 30, 2021

I have a history of several blood clots, and a neurological disorder. I am currently on the recovery side of the Delta variant. I’ll take my natural immunity over the almost certain death from a blood clot and the possibility of permanent neurological side effects from the vaccine.

HIV is preventable too and I’ll bet it costs way more than $20000 for the final hospital stay for that.

Too bad he didn’t get his booster at four months!

The cost of giving free health care to non citizens is in the 100s of billions

That data is from England, but they were finding the same in WV too in that press conference.
