Thanks for replying I’m a bit on the fence. They have been offered a cheap solution and refused it so are wasting the NHS time and money if they subsequently need treatment . On the other side I totally believe free healthcare at source.

No, but those who are vaccinated should think themselves very lucky that we have the NHS because I am sure private healthcare will start to be more expensive for the unvaccinated |

Anyone advocating making the unvaccinated pay for treatment needs to first consider the following (I say this as someone who is vaccinated):
1. What about people in hospital due to adverse reactions to the vaccine (that they chose to have)? Presume you would not pull those out of ICU or make them pay because their choice aligned with yours?
2. What about all the obese people who are being more seriously affected by Covid despite being vaccinated? Or the smokers? After all they made the choice to continue being overweight or smoke, despite us knowing for over 18mths that their lifestyle choices put them at significantly higher risk of serious illness or dying of Covid?
3. How about all the vaccinated people who stopped taking any precautions once jabbed. Partying (swinging included), not wearing masks, going to the pub etc. We all know the vaccines reduce the risk but we also know they do not remotely eradicate the risk. In fact due to reduced symptoms many do not even know they are ill and walk around spreading it. Well they all made choices too so shall we pull them out of ICU or make them pay?
4. Every tax payer in the UK has already paid into the system to fund the NHS. So you would make them pay twice? What about those who don’t need treatment? Do they get their tax refunded?
If you advocate the exclusion of any sector of society then give your head a wobble. It is not something a modern democratic society should ever consider. |

I agree, but a private health care provider would |

Very good points and I have to agree with you. I’m on this side of the fence in truth.
Btw I’m being provocative in the original question as I think it’s how the NHS could go. Dentistry seems to be a disappearing service on the NHS without any pushback from the government. Should obese people get free stomach surgery (no matter what the psychological issues are). That sort of thing is right wing fodder for those, in the words of Cummings “ foolish enough to believe”

"Just a simple question.
Should those who refuse the Covid vaccine be forced to pay for any hospital medical care needed due to being ill solely with Covid? "
No.
They should still get the same medical care. |
