I suspect that will increase the body count among the unvaxed and serve as 1) an object lesson on the costs of pig headedness and 2) provide an incentive for the unvaxed to seek out vaccination.

The unwanted vaccine would be better used if sent to other countries who 1) are in a crisis situation and 2) have populations that want the vaccine. The US is, I think, something of a macrocosim of this board, and as we've seen here, you're wasting your breath trying to shame or persuade these people into doing the right thing.
Socialized medicine in the US is being uninsured and showing up anyhow. Taxpayers foot the bill, but at much higher rates than if there were insurance for everyone paid with tax dollars...

I think we need to put them in quarantine camps. Separate the kids for their safety.
