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.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Not everyone who is vaccinated develops antibodies against the disease. For instance, my friend’s son contracted measles even though he had been fully and properly vaccinated. I did not respond to Hepatitis B vaccine even though I was properly and fully vaccinated.

Much of the effectiveness of vaccination comes from “herd” immunity. If most of the population is vaccinated the disease does not have an opportunity to spread.

If your child is not vaccinated and contracts a disease ( for example whopping cough) there is a real risk that your child will infect those children who have been vaccinated but did not responded, who are too young to have received the vaccine, or too sick. The greater the population of people who are not vaccinated, the greater is the opportunity for the disease to spread from one person to another through the community.

I am as libertarian as anyone can be, and it is **NOT** a libertarian ideal to make other people sick when there are highly effective measures to prevent it. And....As a libertarian, if a parent refuses to vaccinate his child, and his child is the reason others are made sick, then he should be bankrupt by lawsuits into complete state of penury.
