The Atlantic's David Frum issued a tweet in which he claimed that one Covid prevention/punitive measure is to

"Let hospitals quietly triage emergency care to serve the unvaccinated last."

Seems the best option is:

1) Keep encouraging vaccines and boosters;

2) Impose vaccine mandates where it can be done;

3) Otherwise return to normal as fully as we can, especially the schools; and

4) Let hospitals quietly triage emergency care to serve the unvaccinated last—

This tweet, which has since been widely circulated and mocked, albeit with horror, by many on the conservative side of the spectrum, contained a list of measures that Frum believes should be enacted. These, he believes, will curb a pandemic that has continued despite drastic restrictions implemented by many countries.

Frum's missive was intended to show ways that the US could begin to "open up," and lift some restrictions, but his method is to impose more, and to leave some of the most vulnerable among us without emergency care, as punishment for their not having been vaccinated.

Frum begins his list of suggestions with an ask for "vastly stricter vaccine mandates," but states that this "is plainly not going to happen."
