Dr. Kirk Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist who leads the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, said a person’s right to refuse a vaccine outweighed concerns about illness or death from infectious diseases.
This approach means a lot of dead and paralyzed kids. You can eliminate a lot of infectious disease if everybody who can gets vaccinated. You can’t when 10% of the population refuses.


Other forms of accountability are worth considering.
Yeah, okay, sure. If some unvaccinated person gave you measles and you ended up permanently maimed, or even died, what form of accountability would you like to see play out?
