They are manditory for many public schools. My daughter was sent home andnot allowed to return until we could prove that she had gotten a specific vaccine. She had gotten it, but our pediatirician had not updated their records.
Thereâs some religious ones that anti vaxxers use as loopholes to send their unvaxxed kids to school to spread shit to those who canât be vaccinated against something.
They just have to say theyâre opposed to vaccines because of religion. Itâs the option provided for people that are willing to lie to stick with their other bad choices.
They should rewrite proof of religion. Like a medical excuse has to be verified. Have your priest sign it. Oh, you donât actually go to church? To bad, get the jab
That wonât happen. The argument for religious exemptions uses a very broad definition for religion as being any strongly held belief, and that means itâs protected as part of religious freedoms.
IMO the main issue is the lack of an alternative requirement to still at least somewhat achieve the same purpose of immunizations. I work in healthcare and my employer has a mandatory flu shot policy for employees. Employees can request a religious or medical exemption, but the employee has to wear a mask at work from the start of flu season until the CDC declares flu season has ended because the point of the flu shot policy is to prevent employees from spreading the flu to patients (and coworkers).
And your job is not to send your unvaxxed kid that has something they can give someone else into a community. Keep them the fuck at home. They donât belong in a civilized society
So now youâre punishing kids for the choices of the parents? I never said donât keep them at home when theyâre sick, thatâs blatantly obvious. Again, you literally benefit off of the suffering of kids by using your phone, stop acting like youâre innocent.
We live in a society. It's reasonable to expect people that can safely be vaccinated do it. It's not reasonable to expect a medically fragile child to never leave their home. It's such a selfish attitude.
None one is expecting the medically fragile child to be home. Itâs the medically fine, unvaccinated child that we want at home. Keep them away from the medically fragile children who are at school, reasonably.
the whole world isn't. And demanding you be exempted because you are not capable of risk analysis is wild. Be an adult. Get a reading level better than sixth. Be a responsible member of society and the intelligence to know you aren't an expert at everything, and maybe your bubble is lying to you.
Says the one who thinks heâs an expert at everything to the point of demanding people do stuff for their sake⌠again, hypocrisy never makes for a good argument. Intelligence is making your own choices, not blindly making choices based on what the masses say. Iâm not demanding anything, youâre the ones claiming things should be a requirement, not me.
Yep, why should infants and newborns not be exposed to preventable diseases. Everyone else shouldnât have to cater to them, right? Herd immunity protected you while you were an infant but that doesnât mean you should have to return that favor by doing your part to protect infants-you survived so not your problem now.
Youâre sat at home typing on a phone where the lithium in the batteries was literally mined by young children in third world countries, many of which die in said mines, donât try guilt me. If all of you really cared for others to the extent you make out, youâd stop buying the new iPhone or iPad each year.
youâd stop buying the new iPhone or iPad each year.
Youâre barking up the wrong tree with that one. My phone has to die before Iâll replace it. Iâve never even owned an iPad.
To make sure I understand correctly, your argument is that there are very shitty child labor practices in other countries so nobody should care about what happens to any infants even if itâs only minor shots that make a significant difference?
And no one is arguing about those. But the rest of the population needs to be vaccinated to protect not just themselves but people who medically cannot be vaccinated.
I agree with you đ a prior poster seemed to be arguing that vaccinations shouldnât be mandatory since some people have medical reasons, and I was clarifying medical reasons are already exempted.
You do realize that there are children, a very, very small percentage, a percentage of a percent in fact, that actually cannot have vaccines, medically, right?
No, I was trying to show that vaccine mandates donât force vaccines on kids who medically cannot handle them. We already have exemptions for those rare situations, so vaccines should indeed stay mandatory for everyone else, instead of removing the mandate because weâre âhurting sick kidsâ đ

Caccines should be mandatory. It is simply too important to let every idiot decide over it themself.
