“My oldest daughter travels the world ...a merchant officer. Hasn’t had an innoculation since she was four. She’s jes fine. She knows the risks. Her body, her choice. {no fetus involved.} She is no risk to others protected by inoculation.”

I find it suprising that she can find work in the merchant marines without taking her immunizations.

The only occupation I know of where compliance with immunization is mandatory, is the US military...under threat of courts-marshal, or prison.

Other nations may prohibit entry of un-immunized persons. She'd be quarantined to the ship at port. She has not had a problem that I know of.

Would that our nation exercised the same caution at our southern borders.
