The tax makes deaths acceptable?

People should not go to work if they are sick they are excluded from work when they are sick - yes you can have COVID 19 without symptoms but still spread it - if the person sitting next to you is vaccinated and has COVID 19 they are less likely to have symptoms but still likely to spread the virus to you ( a bit like a concealed weapon).
You are far more likely to be sitting next to an infected but asymtomatic person of they are unvaccinated, and while I have taken steps to minimise the risk, it isn't zero and it isn't fair that my risk is increased because of someone elses choice.

You're idea that vaccination is more likely to mask symptoms is psedo-scientific rubbish- you can't spread a disease you don't have, and vaccination stops infection 90% of the time.

As to cost- simple. You choose not to avail yourself of the vaccine, you know you are increasing the risk of costing the health service large sums of money- which you should therefore be liable for.
