“Why are you unhappy there are some people who make medical decisions different from what you believe?”
It’s not what “I believe.” It’s what “is true.”
Deluded vaccine luddites like yourself harm not only themselves (which would, I agree, be your problem and none of others’ concerns), but also harm others.
And, yes, because of the duty imposed by G-d on me of “tikkun olam,” the harm to others is my concern.
Vaccination is a big issue in the Jewish community after an outbreak of pertussis in Lakewood, NJ.
“Recently, there have been a number of reported cases of whooping cough in Lakewood, NJ. In fact, two infants were hospitalized in critical condition due to untreated whooping cough. Neither of those infants had been vaccinated against the disease. Doctors have also reported that whooping cough has spread to those who were not vaccinated at an alarmingly quick rate. As a result, Lakewood’s famous senior pediatrician, Dr. Reuven Shanik, publically declared that he would not see any patients whose immunization records were not up-to-date.”
It’s clear you really do not know how to read english.
You are nothing but a freaking liberal with your ends-justify-the-means viewpoint and trying to cover it up under some veneer of your religion to try to pass it off on the gullible who’ll buy that crock of crap.
Me not taking a vaccine harms nobody else. How can I harm you if your precious and perfect vaccine protects you?
You’re insane and people like you ought never to be in positions of power over anyone else.
You are just justifying taking away people’s ability to determine acceptable risk for themselves because somehow you know what’s better for them than they do and you have no problem forcing it onto them in the name of whatever religion you appear to following.
Ironic also you call me a luddite when you’re the one justifying forcing people to get vaccinated because your religion says it’s your duty to force people to do stuff if you think it’s best for them.
Naw, you’re not an effing communist. Get off the board and go home to DU. Seriously.
You must be for Obamacare’s mandate then too.
Obama says his religion beliefs shaped Obamacare and the individual mandate. You’re all for forcing medical decisions and choices against peoples’ will, I am sure you are just happy as hell Obamacare passed.
Hey, Obama knows what you need better than you do. His experts will say they know stuff and say it’s true too. They’re all smarter than you. They must know better than you too.
That's the ticket. Nothing like a little mockery, derision, and name calling to win someone over to your point of view.
When all else fails attack the messenger.
And I notice that that is in general what the pro-vaccine crowd resorts to in these discussions. If the vaccines were all they were cracked up to be, they'd sell themselves. Since the responses don't include anything of substance, it becomes clear that the pro-vaccine crowd does not have much in their arsenal to support THEIR stance.
