@diedpretty said in [Coronavirus Outbreak](/post/1518499) said:I was in the supermarket at Lake Cathie today and bumped in to an ex colleague ( i'm retired ). We worked together in a facility that accommodated violent people with dual diagnosis for 20 years. She has been a mental health nurse for 40 odd years. Asked how she was going and she tells me she has been given to the new year to get vaccinated or her services are no longer required. She has her reasons for not getting vaxxed that relate to previous health issues. Whether those reasons are valid or not i have no idea. I'm fully vaxxed but it made me wonder about what sort of a society are we creating when people no longer have the freedom of choice and are punished with the loss of their livelihood if they don't toe the line.
Its a society at war with an unforgiving enemy which has killed over 5million of us already. We all come from and have experienced different backgrounds which provides various concepts and opinions of the meaning in the word "freedom". The truth is we have never been free. Our behaviour is influenced by a range of rules, traditions, lores and laws. The more mature our thinking becomes the more we reject the notion of conforming. I think people should have a choice and that's why I choose to join the fight. Good luck to your colleague mate. Stay safe.
