This was a nice commentary, and I do believe that those who lost their jobs and careers were extremely courageous and experienced the greatest of sacrifices, but I do believe that all of us who refused are heroes in a sense. If you want to use a "hero roster," then yes, the job losers should be at the top. That sacrifice was immense.
In the big picture, I believe the most important aspect of this ongoing debacle are the long lasting attitudes of many that still remain towards the unvaccinated. Yes, the ostracism, criticism, and avoidance has decreased quite a bit, but there are memories that will never be forgotten...especially the comments, the attitudes, and the anger displayed when that question was asked, "Are you vaccinated?" ANY explanation was normally met with disbelief, and more often than not, anger, and this is still occurring to some degree.
Regardless, we still need to feel proud about dodging many bullets because we chose to do research and chose to share and continue to share that research here on GAW.
