Applies to anyone who is privileged enough to live in a developed country with free access to the vaccine, however, after having taken said vaccine (and booster), they still believe that Covid poses a significant threat to them. They are systematically incapable of recognizing that the prolongation of 'restrictions' has serious ramifications upon those less fortunate than themselves. Will commonly refer to as 'a pandemic of the unvaccinated', which is code for resentment towards those who do not agree with their worldview
