I've always struggled a bit with the whole vaccination issue. Those who don't want them are obviously idiots, and unfortunately most are parents who are refusing to vaccinate their children. I generally lean more toward the libertarian "do what you want until it hurts me" stance, but it's obvious that a disease epidemic hurts me. At the same time, I have trouble with the idea of the government rounding people up and sticking needles in their arms.

It's a tough question, and I'm not quite sure how to solve it. We will likely face many more issues of disease in the years to come, with antibiotic resistance becoming a growing threat. The idea of a society where a small nick very well may cause a fatal infection is not a pleasant one.

Also, fungi are a rising threat: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19590180
