No, this is what happens in a rigidly individualistic western countries like the USA, UK, and Australia where people act like children screaming "you can't tell me what to do!", even when it's just the health department asking you to stay safe.

There were no forced vaccine mandates in the USA, so I don't really know what you're talking about when you say that this was inevitable. Right-wingers just pretended that there was a mandate so that they could do performative resistance, but you might have noticed, there was no government-imposed punishment for refusing, just the natural consequence of drowning in your own sputum in the ICU.
