You are then (potentially) a greater drain upon society!

No, really! It's (allegedly) to prevent the health care system from collapsing, since sick elders would be the biggest burden!

There are times when I dream that one day they will finally give up on this Covid-19 nonsense. But then I wake up! Apparently they will never let it go.
