Are you saying that people who don't believe in medicine and can put patients at risk should remain employed?


Are you Straw Manning and Ad Hominem attacking the author in the same post?

Where did he say that these people don't believe in medicine? In fact, being a Doctor or Nurse by definition means believing in medicine and protecting the patient is your job. More so than some random hacker news stranger.

Refusing to take a vaccine that appears to be safe and reasonably effective despite being in a pandemic and in a field of work that both increases your risk of exposure and increases the potential damage caused by said exposure (spreading the disease around people who might be already weakened by other medical conditions) suggests they don't.

Could you elaborate? I don't see anything in my comment that's attacking the author directly rather than their claims which I totally disagree with.
