So you want to go collect them from their fields and jab them?
Why do you think they are at risk to themselves or others?
Do you recommend the police get involved?
Time to chill. You cannot, will not and are not changing any minds here.
While you have raised many valid points, you are now going backwards and playing into their hands.
As you noted when you popped back in to see what was new, nothing is new here. Same people, the ones still left, along with the same mindsets. They think that people like you and I are the sheep. They are too invested in their beliefs to even consider anything that goes against their conclusions. There is a predominantly closed system of thinking here. Yet you have been given all the freedom to express your thoughts. Realize that and do not lose that by continuing on your present path.
You of course can continue and end up DD'ed or you can take a break and count your blessings, regroup and try another approach with your freedom to be here intact. Either way, the rest will still be here whether you are or not. FWIW, nothing pisses them off more than someone who knows when to quit before they are tossed. You'll just have to trust me on that one.
And the Amish and Christian Scientists and Orthodox Jews are busy carrying on with their lives, they are not participating and so are not at risk of anything.
Now the rate of infections among the Haredim, as they are known in Israel, has dropped sharply, falling below the national average for the first time since the pandemic broke out. Cases of severe illness have also dropped, and vaccine take-up is at 72%, a comparatively high rate globally although still below the national rate of 86% in Israel.
The shift comes on the back of a decree from the Haredimâs leading rabbis, who for some hold far more authority in their communities than the state, to endorse the vaccine as Israel began its national roll-out in late December.
âI personally went to rabbinical classes and sat with the rabbis and with the public,â said Ran Balicer of Clalit, Israelâs biggest healthcare provider.
âThe bottom line was that the rabbis have declared the rabbinical verdict that the vaccine is safe and effective and should be taken.â
The decision was a turning point for the community ravaged by the virus, where by February, one in every 100 Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jews above the age of 60 had died of COVID-19 - nearly six times higher than among their mainstream peers.

I'm with them.
That is patently not true. Please explain to me why not having a vaccine means you are not at risk of anything.
Side effects, impotence, miscarriages, heart problems, infertility, etc., etc.

And admit it, you are very very scared by something you obviously don't fully understand. There's actually nothing wrong with that. We all have our fears and insecurities. And none of us knows everything. But we might make more progress if you simply admitted you were shit-scared instead of trying to convince others that you are right to be scared.
Here, let me save you the trouble: You are right to be scared about the unknown. We all are. Now let's move on to ways of managing those fears.. You ok with that?
My daughter is getting her Nurse Practitioner degree this year at UCSF
Believe me - all she knows is to follow orders
She does not understand the underlying stuff if it is not her specialty
So you certainly don't know anything about this covid stuff - you just know to follow orders and check everything with Reuters Fact Checking
Is that how science works?
No, data is open and scientists check each others work

It does affect us all and a nice civilized discourse is healthy

You don't need all those threads. You're just clogging the recent forum list when there is already a general covid thread that will cover all your topics.
What happens is there are hundreds of comments in a big disorganized pile. Impossible to use it a knowledge source or reference or even to figure out what people are talking about
