Andy Pugh, from Worcester, had declined to have a Covid vaccine before he became ill on 4 December - and was told by doctors in intensive care he had a 50% chance of surviving.

That’s another NHS bed made unavailable to someone in real need. These morons make me fume. I don’t like Macron, but he was spot on today.

Where do you draw the line?

Do you drink too much? Do you smoke? Are you a healthy weight? Do you exercise five times a week? Do you eat enough fresh fruit and veg? Do you follow all advice that your (perhaps overweight and unhealthy) doctor gives you? If you don't adhere to all of the above, then you could be denying someone else who is genuinely in a greater need than you are...

Many people in our hospitals might not be there if they had chosen a healthier lifestyle... life expectancy is going down, and primarily, it's due to personal, or lack of, responsibility.

Coercing people into making a personal decision for the political gain of others is abhorrent.

There is a massive difference though between a healthier lifestyle and not getting vaccinated in a global pandemic.

For a starters you could be the most unhealthiest person lifestyle wise and never see inside a hospital. Being fat doesn't mean you are going to get health issues off the back of it. Smoke 20 ciggies a day and never have cancer or respiratory problems etc.

Whereas nearly 2 years in, there is a very good chance not getting the free vaccine offered to you will have you end up in hospital, very much true for every variant so far. The odds aren't in your favour with covid!
