No, it's to save my children from your bad parental choices.

Then vaccinate YOUR CHILDREN. Would you accept me telling your children that they can't drive because they pose a risk of killing my children in a car accident? Somehow I doubt it.

Why not just mandate that the government take everyone's children away from their parents since parents obviously make so many mistakes. The government could raise them right in group homes. I'm sure you can find plenty of people on Democratic Underground that would think that's a great idea. Clearly you have no use for the liberty of others if you think it poses any threat to you or your children, even a threat smaller than being hit by lightning.

Vaccinations only work if the overwhelming majority of the population is vaccinated. It’s called “herd immunity.”

No vaccine is 100% successful. A small number of vaccinated people will fail to develop immunity, which is why mass vaccination is so important to provide herd immunity.
