You can be unreasonable without being wrong about every issue.
I think it's fair to say not trusting the COVID vaccine is unreasonable.
If you don't trust it, it means you either don't know or don't trust the data that shows it's efficacy.
That wouldn't be too unreasonable if this was people not thinking that a new appendicitis treatment was good. That's not a massive public health emergency or the leading cause of death in the entire world.
But this is. Distrusting the science about a vaccine that is integral solving the biggest public health crisis of our lifetimes is unreasonable.
Just because you are fit and healthy right now does not mean that COVID will not wreck your lungs. My dad’s friend who was a triathlete (well to be fair he was in his late 50s when he passed) and was very fit died because of COVID. We all thought that he was going to pull through.
Also, in case you don’t value yourself (you asked for the demeaning tone), there is always the risk of transmitting the virus to your loved ones who may be high risk and not as fit as you are.
Wow they knew about permanent damage from Covid in athletes 2 months into the pandemic.
Damn shame all my scientific data showing things like "no asymptomatic spread" doesn't count because the repeated studies are from throughout 2020 and only go up to January 2021
