Yeah I have absolutely no sympathy for antivaxxers.
My first instinct is “I will tie you to a chair and put a needle in your arm myself,” but I understand the reasons we shouldn’t do that
My compromise is to make it basically impossible to exist in society if you or your kids are unvaccinated. Make it so you can’t get a job, pay taxes, use or open a bank account, get a drivers license, rent or buy a house, etc etc. Vaccination is the cover charge for entering society.
I agree. The first thing to do would be to follow China's example and make schools reject students if they are behind on their vaccinations.
Unfortunately while I do think that is one of the things that should happen I think it should actually be further down the list because many anti-vaxx Americans don’t want their children going to school in the first place
Banning them from school is important because it protects others but the important thing is to target the parents not the children, because they don’t care about their children in the first place
Banning children from school would mean that the parents would have to look after them instead, making antivax bullshit personally inconvenient to them.
But I get your point. The best thing to do would be to simply mandate vaccinations, ultimately by force if necessary. Besides, homeschooling should be banned as anything other than a short temporary measure for well-adjusted families.
As someone who was homeschooled I absolutely 100% agree, unless it’s temporary and for solid reasons homeschooling is child abuse imo.
Genuinely, why the song and dance about this?
