> risk cost analysis.

Risk of vaccination is low, benefit good, seems legit.

> that's up to the individual

Sure, if and only if it's also up to the employer to choose as well. Individual choice without accountably for the consequences of that choice would be nice, but it's in short supply on account of the deadly pandemic.

> why not force everyone to not be fat while we're at it.

This is a pointless question. Do fat nurses harm patients thereby? No.

> why not force everyone to have a vaccine for every disease?

There are many contexts in which vaccinations are required. _shrug_

> why not just keep everyone in a jail cell so they can't be harmed.

You're not making rational arguments here, just throwing emotional words around.

vaccinated people are protected against unvaccinated people, the only argument is unvaccinated people take up ICU beds.

fat people take up ICU beds for healthy people, being fat is a choice and is the #1 cause of morbidity for covid.

the emotional argument is coming from the side saying everyone needs to be 100% vaccinated so we don't all die.

give me liberty or give me death is not just a phrase.

> vaccinated people are protected against unvaccinated people,

Again, all or nothing thinking. It's not binary; protected completely or unprotected. I doesn't work like that. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28800966

The more unvaccinated staff there are, the more risk there is to all staff, vaccinated or not.

And tell me, what about the patients? What if they're not vaccinated through no fault of their own (too young, immune-compromised etc)? Do they not deserve safety in hospital?

I want liberty too, liberty from the risk of being around unvaccinated people. I understand that I won't get that liberty in all contexts, but in some such as hospitals and aircraft, I am glad of it.

Your arguments are full of emotion, but they just don't add up. "other side" means that you think you're fighting someone.
