| > I typically get a "it just is" response. I doubt that. I couldn't STOP hearing the arguments last year. Not trying to be 'smart', but just believe a minimal effort to understand an opposing view gets you there. > hoping someone might have a better response Regarding required vaccines for grade-school kids at public schools in the U.S.: 1. Aren't actually forced. You can opt out in several ways. 2. The diseases they treat have a much higher death/hospitalization and/or transmissibility rate among children. 3. We better understand the diseases they treat. 4. Approvals for vaccines were not given under emergency order. 5. Meet the CDC's pre-2019 definition of 'vaccine'. 6. Side affects are published, well known, and readily available. That's just off the top of my head. And I assume you and I agree on most things. |
