All I've been doing is criticizing any support I see for vaccine mandates among friends and family, and personally entering into covid safety conversations with new people and friends similar to ones I have about consent and STIs before sex. What else can you do?

Anarchists I know who are more supportive of vaccine pressure cite concern for the elderly, infirm, and those with pre-existing conditions. I think some on this site would reduce those concerns into "moralism" and brush it away, but I don't think that's dealing with the issue. Covid is a real life, clear example of how we are not actually just a collection of individuals who are solely responsible for how we individually handle ourselves. I don't want to take that in the direction of group duties and obligations which trump the individual, but it complicates things for me in a way I don't know what to do with.
