(14,337 posts)although I seriously doubt you are going to change very many minds. People who want to vaccinate themselves or their children will. Those who don't won't, especially with adult vaccination. I am only addressing the adult vaccination situation (far worse than the childhood rates) one and how it will fail to compel adults to do so.
There is a new campaign for Adult Vaccinations, and even a petition to the White House against it. For me personally, it is an issue of freedom, not just with vaccinations but the entire program of Wellness/Preventive Care under the ACA. Vaccinations are just one small part of that. As an adult, I refuse ALL of that. Just a TAX in my mind as the SC said.
First, they came for the little children. I did not have a little child, so I ignored it. Then they came for ME........... If you cannot refuse medical care for your own adult body, you have no freedom, period. The "greater good" is not worth taking that freedom away.
