interesting notion, but:

 

how would you set rates? if a particular vaccine has a 1 in 10,000 chance of causing a serious life-threatening reaction, but the disease it is used against only has a 1 in 100,000 chance of being caught by an un-vaccinated individual, then it seems, using risk metrics, rates would be higher for the vaccinated. add to this the low chance of hospitalizable complications with a particular innocuous vaccinatable disease....

i also doubt that insurance co's can use premiums as a punitive measure?

 

it'd be interesting to see such an attempt play out....

 

then of course there are all the adults like e-rock and ET and JayB and Rob and off-white(?) etal who haven't had their boosters; you all would be volunteering to pay higher premiums because of your strong moral convictions.

 

seems fair to me....
