All arguments have been exchanged in the discussion about compulsory vaccination.

That vaccination does not protect against contamination by the omicron variant of the virus.

That it is nevertheless a good remedy for serious illnesses.

That dangerous side effects of vaccinations are far less likely than those of infection.

That two to three hundred deaths a day don't have to be.

The fact that we are looking forward to the next autumn and winter, which we and the health system would survive better if the vaccination rate were higher.

And so forth.

All sorts of stupid things have also been exchanged, preferably under the flag of freedom, which supposedly means not having to be vaccinated.

Because freedom is an opinion that does not require justification or knowledge.

Because it means not letting anything dictate you (except what feels like hundreds of thousands of pieces of legislation).

Because the stab in the upper arm represents a drastic encroachment on physical integrity, even if it serves to protect physical integrity from a sometimes fatal disease.

Because being opposed to a majority gives you a strange feeling of having fought for freedom.

And so forth.
