[mcbkqach] those who will never be vaccinated

  1. if I am an illegal immigrant and choose to be vaccinated against COVID-19, might the information I provide on vaccination paperwork be used to discover my illegality and hasten my deportation?

  2. if I am evading law enforcement, perhaps for a crime that hasn't been discovered yet, might the information I provide or leak during vaccination be used to apprehend me?  along with information directly provided on vaccination paperwork, leaked information might include becoming filmed on security cameras or automated license-plate recording cameras, or being tracked by cell phone tracking systems.

these are rhetorical questions; the answers to both is "obviously yes".  we do not have any mechanisms to credibly convince people of these groups that the answer is "no".  law enforcement, including immigration, cannot be stopped in accessing (via subpoena) any of the above information.

included in group 2 are people who are evading paying child support.

also included in group 2 might be a very large number of people trying to keep a low profile because of "three felonies a day".

also included in group 2 might be people who self-recognize that they have a predilection toward "antisocial behavior", and might do something criminally antisocial, or might do something antisocial that attracts attention of law enforcement leading to arrest for a different crime, during the course of being vaccinated.  antisocial behavior, as judged by our racist society, might include "being black".

what is the total population of the people in these categories?  assuming they rationally choose not be vaccinated because they don't want to be deported or end up in jail or have wealth confiscated, are they alone enough to prevent general herd immunity?  people in these groups likely geographically cluster.  regions with high concentrations of such people are even less likely to locally reach herd immunity.

we have created a society with a large number of such people.  benefits perhaps have included cheap labor, law and order.  but we now pay its cost -- pay the piper -- in situations like this, being unable to stop a disease -- those who are not vaccinated will breed new COVID-19 variants -- and being unable to return to normalcy.

it seems it will require a mind-bogglingly vast restructuring of society to significantly decrease the population of such people.
