No, it isn't wrong. We segragate people in many areas of life; children are not allowed to consume alcohol, or consent to sex; to work certain professions, you need proper certification/credentials.

Are you against those as well?

They don't effect my decision at all.... if I believe the vaccinations work... than it doesn't matter if the person next to me hasn't been... for I'm immune, they don't effect me. If I believe they don't work... then it doesn't matter if they've been vaccinated or not.... it doesn't matter at all. What a dumb argument.... think about it.
What you fail to understand time and time again is how the vaccine functions. It doesn't make you totally immune, it's a matter of probability. And the probability of its effectiveness decreases when you are surrounded by unvaccinated people. Further, it puts in greater danger those who are not able to get the vaccine, ie: children. It puts a strain on the hospitals that we all share.

Let me provide you with an analogy that may illuminate this point more.

Imagine if you were against requiring a driver's licence to drive a vehicle on public roads. You could say something like "Why do I care if someone didn't take their test and passed it in order to obtain a license? I did it and I know how to drive, so why do I care?"

The reason you should care is because we share the road. There isn't one road for those who know how to drive and one for those who don't.
