Should vaccination be mandatory?

[The Dharma Bum]

I love that term "herd immunity".... it almost takes the phrase "herd mentality" and turns it from a brutal and demeaning pejorative, into something that seems like a win-win philosophy.

[exploited]

Many agencies now refer to it as community immunity, because they found that using herd immunity caused many people to dismiss the concept as offensive before understanding it.

I was like lol no way when I read that. Now I am not surprised at all.

[The Dharma Bum]

it's not difficult to understand or dismiss

[The Comrade]

yeah we should dismiss the idea that some people are allergic to vaccines or have weak immune systems. f**k them, right?

[exploited]

Haha okay bud.

[The Dharma Bum]

Just so you know Exploited, newborn infants are not susceptible to being infected with hepatitis B so if they don't get that vaccine the death toll is going to be exactly 0, "herd immunity" notwithstanding.

Secondly the actions you stated that you approve of to force medical treatments on people against their will are a violation of the Nuremburg Code.

That's why vaccines cannot ever be made mandatory, ever. It's just not going to ever happen. Your suggestions were unethical in the extreme.

[exploited]

Haha dude, you once again don't know what you are talking about. Children does not equal newborns. And in terms of what I suggested, my suggestion only applied in a situation of anarchy. I've never seriously suggested anything but requiring school children to be vaccinated in order to attend public school.

But you would know that if you were capable of thought not handed to you by your betters.

or, ya know, if you come in contact with blood that or other fluids that are infected with. oh wait that never happens, which is why HIV is so scary, being that it's airborne.

sure would love my kid to step on a needle at the park and get hepatitis
