BS, if you take the shot, YOU get your immunity, right? And if one doesn’t take the shot, they only risk themselves and others who made the same decision. So take the shot if you wish. You are free to mock me if i get a flu. My decision does not harm those who decide to get the shot. Why are you so determined to make us get the same shot you did? How does that benefit YOU?

Actually, even people who receive the shot might not be protected. Some people do not become immune from shots. So, if you skip your shots and get sick, you could very well endanger someone who has conscientiously taken all of their vaccines. Your choice to remain susceptible to vaccine preventable diseases does not just affect you.

I’ve had FIVE rubella vaccines. I still have ‘0’ rubella titer. I’m not jack boot enough, though, to demand someone ELSE submit to a medical procedure they don’t agree with just to protect me. This is just the gun control argument in a different area. Moreover, neither I nor you can guarantee that forcing someone to receive the rubella vaccine (grown in a dead fetus that would be *older* than I am btw) would even generate a positive titer for them. Regardless of how many times it was repeated.

what I would support, wholeheartedly, is being deliberately innoculated WITH rubella and spending a couple weeks in a ‘rubella hostel’ somewhere. Think of it as an away camp for 10yr old girls. Never have to worry about your status again. Or who might have it.
