You have made the case for individualism about as well as it can be made.
It resonates strongly in our contemporary American culture, but it does
not serve it or the future of the world well. A culture of self-sacrifice
for the common good would be a better perspective, I suggest.

Denise,
You've asked a really good question about personal choice and how
decisions regarding immunizations can affect others.
Many immunizations work because most people in a given region agree to
take them. Vaccines, however, don't confer 100% protection on a
population, but if almost everyone
As much as I dislike the government in general and government interference
in particular, I have to agree with Jon. We do need to keep an eye on the
pharmaceutical companies. However, lets not throw the baby out with the bath
water.

hey u all...
i wish u wouldnt equate the earth being flat, the easter bunny and the tooth
fairy w the suspicion that mandatory vaccinations r not 100% beneficial...
it makes those of us who r suspicious about it sound superstitious and
irrational...and i dont think that is the case here...

Dear Friends--I couldn't agree with Jon's post more. If a person believes
that yoga and exercise and eating fairly well are going to prevent them
from succumbing to a pandemic outbreak of a disease from which the average
person could be protected by a vaccine then he or she probably believes in
I've managed to hold back so far on joining this thread, but it's
becoming pretty clear that some people simply don't understand how
vaccination works or the role it has played in changing the
incidence of infectious disease in this country over the last
hundred years.

I wish we all had the good sense do the right thing (and to know what's
right) without the State making our actions mandatory.

I am not trying to say that antibacterial soap is the same thing as
vaccinations. I am just pointing out that we can debate at what line we think
is acceptable forever. Who is to say that we all need to use vaccinations,
antibiotics, or soap?
And what about Gardasil? I know it's probably been te
The use of antibacterial soap and immunizing against diseases as
devastating as TB are simply not the same thing. I agree that we
overprotect ourselves with obsessive cleansing of our own surfaces and
those of our surroundings, and I also believe that we overuse

I can understand why vaccinations are important, but at the same time, it is
not something which everyone will agree with.
What would happen if antibacterial soap was required by everyone?
It seems like something that would help health, but I would oppose using it on
a regular basis.

I second Joe's note of caution.
I've been involved with public health for many years and have seen the
increased number of people, especially kids, with preventable infectious
diseases due to a lack of immunization. Some of you may be aware that we

Dear Friends--I whole heartedly endorse Joe Wetmore's position on
vaccines. If we lived in a third world country with pandemics of
preventable diseases, we would be begging for vaccines to prevent the mass
death of our loved ones. For some to refuse vaccines at the peril of the
public health
Hi
We live in a time when infectious diseases are
relatively under control, and have been for most of
the population's lives. This has caused people to be
more afraid of the Vaccines than the diseases then
prevent. This is unfortunate. Tuberculosis,
meningitis, pertussis, poliomyelitis, diphtheri
