Precisely.
This has nothing to do with government overreach, IMO.
It has everything to do with protecting innocent children from physical harm.
If you believe there's unanimity in the scientific community about mass vaccination—that they are both benign and universally beneficial. However, there are opposing views and medical ethics to consider. And complications to weigh.
Deaths have been reported in the literature as a result of vaccines. To a policy theorist, death may be an acceptable risk, in the abstract. But in your world, that's your child or grandchild that just expired a few short minutes ago or maybe a few hours after receiving a state mandated vaccine. That's a heavy burden.
I understand others disagree—I simply chose this post at random for comment to presents a contrary view.
There is a question that has always puzzled me, though. What was human evolution before vaccines and what will human evolution be after vaccines? Or is there a new paradigm in the universe? Evolution plus vaccines?
Yes, we are a species that evolution made clever enough to make vaccines and modify genes. But did evolution also make us smart enough to control evolutionary forces, or just arrogant enough to tamper with it?
Yes, we know a lot. But, how much do we really understand?
