An acquaintance who is staunchly against the Covid vaccine has contracted Covid and is now hospitalized on a vent. Before you ask, male, age 34, weighs approx 170lbs, 6' tall. No underlying health issues that I'm privy to(doesn't mean there aren't any). He is a vegan though, so soy boyish.

His cousin has informed me they plan on setting up a Gofundme. I think it's bullshite.

He took a chance by not getting the shot and lost that bet. Why should they now start begging for money. The stats show that even though he may have gotten Covid even with the shot, his chances of being hospitalized were much much lower.

I agree with anyone's right to choose, but don't come begging for money if you end up in a coma on a vent.

What do they need money for?
Does he not have health insurance?

My two cents:

You shouldn't call somebody a soy boy and then come crying like a bitch about something on the OT.

You don't want to give them money, don't give them money. It's that simple.

Cause they can. Same as everyone else who sets up a charity fund. You aren’t beholden to donate.

Mind your own fricking business and it won’t affect you.

Not very Saint-like of you. You could always, I dunno, not donate to the gofundme and move on with your life.

No one cares when smokers get lung cancer or when drinkers get liver cancer but now unvaccinated people getting covid is the dumbest thing that's ever happened to anyone and they deserve to die. Shut up

I’m barely in favor of him getting a hospital bed or vent, much less free money.
