I think in public schools they should be encouraged...but I don't believe in compulsory education. or in compulsory vaccinations...unless one is crossing borders.Vaccines should be 100% choice as they are now. Some people cannot survive being vaccinatedThere is no guarantee of vaccinations workingYou might not feel so smug if they get measles at thirty, go blind, and give it to your grandkids...who die. Btw measles kills natives at a much higher rate than most populations. Maybe you get a mild case and go to the store and infect an Indian baby...who then dies. In other words... it's not just about you.Mine didn’t get vaccinated and attends school with other kids. No problem.Don't vaccinate your kids and home school them.
I know that. But they definitely help. Flu vaccines have a 60 percent efficacy. I think measles and polio and smallpox are much higher. People are much more likely to die from the disease than of the vaccine, and the vaccines slow down and stop contagion. We eradicated small pox and polio via vaccines..and those diseases were virulent, common and horrific.
