Measles is contagious and was extinct. Body integrity brought it back.

This being an argument for abortion? Bring it on; if they haven't tried already. Never mind they aren't concerned about the concept of body integrity.

One of the hazards of politics - every argument you use can and will be used against you later. The Supreme Court ruling against Obama on the ACA Medicaid expansion is now defending sanctuary cities and states from Donald trump.

Stop giving antiabortion activists ammunition to use against you.

Bodily integrity is important, and we should keep it as a first principle - even if we have to pay the blood price. Because the alternative is even worse.


Again; it was extinct. Body integrity brought it back.

It doesn't matter giving them ammunition; they to abuse if not kill people over it.

What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive? Or if during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

Fair, but they’re not the only ones endangered by the lack of vaccination.

True, but the chances that a given unvaccinated person will cause another person’s death is exceptionally low. Not zero, but exceptionally low (last death was in 2015).

From the perspective of a person who sees a fetus as a person, the risk of another person’s death from abortion is 100%.

This would justify far greater intrusions into bodily autonomy.

Was. Then High Priest Andrew Wakefield did Papa Nurgle's bidding and got gullible parents to stop vaccinating their offspring until measles came back like the Taliban.

Amazing how the left continue to inadvertently show their true colors when it comes to things like healthcare, vaccines, and guns.

I am a right-wing Libertarian, and I believe that vaccines should be mandatory. Why? Bringing back dead diseases is a bad thing.

There was a lie spread about vaccines causing autism. Many studies proved the claims wrong. People opted out of MMR (measles; mumps; rubella) shots because they will cause autism.

I read a couple stories mumps and rubella infections are increasing now....

Yeah, that’s not how quarantines work. You can spread the disease before you’re sympathetic, then the damage is done. You quarantine everyone who might be infected and work it out from there.

Because if everyone who can be vaccinated is you get an effect called herd immunity which stops the disease from spreading to the vulnerable individuals.

I don't have a reasonable answer for that one.
