Hi Pat. Just some thoughts. It’s difficult to start off to a link without knowing why he sent you this link, or any link - was it because you denied there was a pandemic, and your sister is worried about you? Maybe he comes in peace - he might not realize it’s not very good.
The article - who is the audience here, the Dr is telling the vaccinated that they have a right not to be patient about other people’s right to decide their own medical treatment! Last time I looked, whether people accept a medication or not was none of his business (let’s assume it’s a ‘he’ for brevity), or anyone else’s.
And he’s saying that whatever the reasons for unvaccinated people holding out, they are based on ‘misinformation’ - that’s not aimed at changing minds, he’s preaching to the choir.
It ignores the small matter of the reasons and the evidence on which their opposition is based.
If he wanted to convince the unvaxed, then with all that thinking he says he’s been doing, he’d have been better writing an article addressing some of their reasons.
I’d say it’s a propaganda piece cranking up social pressure on the unvaxxed from the vaxxed, trying to up the number of vaccinations further and getting the population ready for the Great Mandate.
What about that guilt Doctor Who is dumping on unvaxxed patients?
Well based on Worldometer data, there shouldn’t BE pressure on the ICUs due to Covid.
Covid deaths per million per day, UK:
12 Jan 2021: 14.5
21 Nov 2021: 2.15
(daily average over the previous week)
Tearing the thing apart might cut off the channel but you could put it gently, pointing to the fact that the anonymous Dr has not addressed any concerns, he just appears to be trying to arm the vaxxed in their hostility.
You could briefly give some reasons why you are declining the kind offers to vaccinate you, with a link or two.
There’s a table here that shows that it’s not mainly the unvaxxed who are doing the transmitting

If the unvaxxed are not transmitting the disease then there should be no discrimination.
All the experts whose job it is to decide on risks v benefits (JCV1 committee, FDA) despite being heavily biased by conflicts of interest and who virtually always say ‘vaccinate and be damned’ - they cautioned and expressed discomfort regarding vaccinating kids. Robert Malone too - said the risk benefit ratio was terrible for kids. Though I would have thought this was obvious to everyone!
Bit of a jumble, but hope something might be helpful there.
Good luck
