How about a very simple answer to the anti-v**xers when they inevitably contract C****-**? Just don't come to the hospital if you are in denial that you have the disease. ("Anti-v*****e patients vent anger on healthcare workers like me. It takes a toll on care," Opinion, Jan. 20)

If you don't trust the people trying to save your life, stay home and tough it out. If you insist you don't have C****-**, quit being selfish by taking the bed of a person suffering a heart attack or, in this insane country, injuries from a gunshot wound.

Enough of your nonsense. You're keeping us stuck in this p******c.

And as for Dr. Venktesh Ramnath, who has been accosted by anti-v*****e C****-** patients and their families, I'm sorry that you and your colleagues have to put up with these belligerent people desperately ill from this scourge.


a quote often attributed to Albert Einstein came to mind: "Only two things are infinite — the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."
