Abstract
At a moment when COVID-19 hospitalizations are high and treatments for the disease scarce, here's an ethical question: Should people who have refused coronavirus vaccines be allowed to compete for treatments with people who are immunocompromised?
We think no. Doing so would be unfair to Americans who remain unprotected by vaccines through no choice of their own.
