Favorite Interviewer Steve Paikin usually has good, well-managed discussions going. Lately it's been Covid.
Whether vaxx holdouts should be forced to get poked drew some strong opinions. What it showed more than anything else is that the line between a democratic society and an intolerant one is thin.
Two of his guests were inclined to let the individual decide. The other two exhibited tendencies that haven't been seen since the 1940s in occupied Europe.
One claim was that hospitals were plugged with unvaccinated people because of Covid. Another claim was that the unvaxxed were mostly uneducated foreigners clinging to religious restrictions.
The fact that a significant percentage of Covid patients are fully vaccinated did not come up. If it did, I missed it.
