Kids will not be able to attend public schools without it.

A few years ago, my immune system was wiped out, for over a year — no vaccine would work for me. I went through much the same isolation as we’re all experiencing now, just to avoid ‘ordinary’ flu. There are millions of people in much the same circumstances today — they cannot protect themselves with a vaccine, so they rely on everyone else to do the responsible thing.

Very young children comprise another vulnerable population. Anyone, who chooses not to vaccinate themselves, should avoid all contact with very young children. If you can’t do that, don’t visit your grandchildren — you just might kill them.

Please also see my #19 above, for a bit of a disclaimer.

Never sign a consent form. And if they attempt by force, have your medical history photographed and dedocumented prior, and then phone record the force and threaten them with liability action for

She jokes. It will be armed Law enforcement officers coming to take you into custody and forcibly vaccinating you.

Nah. Not getting this vaccine, or any other flu vaccine.

Tetanus, rabies, ok - those things will kill you.

But we have alternatives for this virus, that are far more broad spectrum than the vaccine will be. This thing mutates so fast that any vaccine will always be too late to cure the current problem.

I’m as likely to get one for this as I am to get the flu shot every year. i.e., not at all. The vaxers can just screw themselves.

Nothing quite as satisfying as screwing yourself.

I’m grateful that you got past it. That does not seem fun at all, to say the least.

To clarify, I’ve loaded myself and my family with every vaccine that’s ever been offered us by our doctors. I’ve judged it the responsible thing for us to do for ourselves, and, as you suggest, for others. But I’d be extremely reluctant to force anything into the bloodstream of anyone who refused it. Or to accept the counsel of globalist fantasists like Gates and the like. I don’t trust them to work in my best interests. They haven’t, so far.

Gates was part of that mandatory wart vaccine too.

“A judge can decide if the person should be taken into custody and forcibly vaccinated.”

You made my point. They make vaccination mandatory, they are going to have to kill people.

Just to clarify, this situation is far worse than what I experienced before. I was mainly concerned with the flu season then; but, I was given a lot of ‘herd immunity’ from the vaccines most other people were taking. I was still able to see my grandkids; unless they had symptoms. Also, there were some ‘proven’ antivirals available, which I would have been given if I developed a fever. AFAIK, some of those antivirals are now being tested to see if they would help with the CCP virus. It would be great if they did, as they would reduce the intensity and probably save a lot of lives.

And to clarify my views — I’m also opposed to forced vaccines. The 1976 Swine Flu debacle proves that things can go wrong. Utilitarianism says to do the greatest good for the greatest number — that implies universal vaccination. However, any vaccine comes with risks, so universal vaccination contradicts the ethical mandate of “First do no harm ...”.

Every individual has the innate right to control what goes into their body. OTOH, everyone else has the right to expect non-vaccinators to act responsibly. Anyone, who eschews the vaccine must take measures to avoid infecting anyone else. That might be as simple as periodic testing for infection — or avoiding vulnerable family members. Until a couple of months ago, I thought that every FReeper could be counted on to exercise personal responsibility. Now, given what some posters are saying here, I’m not sure about that.
