In January 2014, 102 measles cases linked to an outbreak at Disneyland were reported in 14 states. The outbreak alarmed the CDC, which declared the disease eliminated in the U.S. in the year 2000. Many health officials have tied the outbreak to the rising number of unvaccinated children under the age of 12. Proponents of a mandate argue that vaccines are necessary in order to insure herd immunity against preventable diseases. Herd immunity protects people who are unable to get vaccines due to their age or health condition. Opponents of a mandate believe the government should not be able to decide which vaccines their children should receive. Some opponents also believe there is a link between vaccinations and autism and vaccinating their children will have destructive consequences on their early childhood development.

These active users have achieved a basic understanding of terms and definitions related to the topic of Mandatory Vaccinations
Yes, but with exemptions for legitimate MEDICAL concerns and those whose religious beliefs forbid them.
Yes, however I believe that being Vaccinated should only be enforced if the person that directly interacts with vulnerable people. Ultimately, the choice of vaccination should rest in the hands of the individual and should respect bodily autonomy, but attempt to safeguard the wellbeing of others.
Hold parents responsible for children becoming ill, child protect services may take the child. Vaccination for public schools.
Yes, with exceptions for those who require medical or religious exemptions.
Yes, mandate social responsibility when it comes to protecting the lives of humanity
Yes, and end all exemptions except in the case of immune-compromised or other individuals who cannot take it safely.
The government as it is shouldn't exist however, if it were to exist vaccines that have been proven to make life safer should be mandated
Yes, and there should be no religious exemptions
There shouldn't be vaccine.
Yes, but there should be an exception for medical reasons.
Yes, unless they have a disorder that make vaccination dangerous.
Yes, but only if the child is not allergic to the vaccine's ingredients. We don't want to inject poison into the child. We want to inject something that will help the child in the long run.
No. I believe the people should ultimately decide what they do, but highly encourage them to do so.
They should also be microchipped. Big brother is always watching.
Yes, but with exceptions for those with health complications
No, as it is the individual's choice whether to or not to vaccinate.
it depends how old the child is
Yes, but people who can't take it for medical reasons shouldn't be punished
yes, unless physically impossible by the person getting the vaccination (such as having celiac or another disease similar)
no otherwise your controlling civilians like Adolf Hitler
Yes, it is essential to creating herd immunity, and being able to protect those that physically cannot get vaccinated.
It depends on the person. Many black people don’t get vaccinated because they have a long history of medical professionals mistreating or ignoring their needs.
Vaccinations optional, but mandatory for entering certain buildings and areas.
Yes, but if a child cannot obtain one due to health issues they are exempt.
if they are able to be vaccinated then they should be to protect those who cant be
no let everyone die of the plague
Yes , for deadly contagious diseases but with exceptions for those whose religious beliefs forbid use of vaccines.
Yes, and require everyone
Children should not recieve vaccinations unless deathly ill
Yes, with medical exceptions as needed and verified by the child's doctor.
It would be a gross overstep if the government intervened but at the same time i think it's ignorant. that people don't get children who are at risk vaccinated
No government, screw the government, but vaccines should be absolutely necessary to oarticipate in society.
Yes, but after a certian age allowing children to devolope an immune system
It depends on their health condition and the deadly disease, aka Covid 19. Whilst it shouldn't be entirely mandatory, it should be made mandatory for those working in Hospitals, paramedics and Doctors Surgeries and recommended for everyone else
as long as the diseases in question pose a threat to both the patient and public's health. Diseases such influenza, coronaviruses (viruses that cause the common cold and have the inherent ability to replicate themselves and recombine with other coronaviruses as an evolutionary survival trait to ensure they colonizes in their hosts, both avian and mammalian, and therefore cannot be practically or even impractically immunized against), e. Coli, Salmonella, etc.

Yes, unless the child is allergic to its ingredients, like eggs.
No, unless the people vote for it.
We should instead ban all children
We don't need a government!
