[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now it's primarily for MAGA idiots.
No vaccine requirements in the state should go quite well at super spreader Disney/Universal events[/quote]

You do know that COVID vaccines don’t prevent spread right? They just lessen the severity?

I get a new Covid vaccine every fall (well, we will see if they let me this year) but I still have gotten Covid a few times. [/quote]

You know they just announced that no school age child in Florida will be required to present vaccinations.  I don't want to be in the midst of a polio/measles/mumps epidemic while trying to ride Space Mountain.  FAFO Florida.[/quote]

Why do you care if you have your own immunizations?  Anyway, all of the foreigners there are already potentially unvaccinated.[/quote]

Although most Americans take the “I got mine” approach to life, public health is a social effort. Not everyone can get vaccinated, immunity can wane (see whooping cough), and you might not know it didn’t take for you unless you specially ordered titers. Vaccines work best when the herd is protected.

And you are right - international visitors are coming in with active measles and other diseases. To date, the wall that is herd immunity limited the spread. Toss in a bunch of unvaccinated locals, a bunch of immune weakened old folks, and you have the makings of a catastrophe. Remember how well the hospitals managed the peak of COVID? That will look quaint. Peds are already talking about how they are going to have to brush up on once-routine procedures that have been rendered virtually unnecessary due to vaccines.  [/quote]

So much drama.  The operative word here is choice.  Parents are free to vaccinate their children.  Pediatricians and insurance companies are free to educate and pressure, like they do now.  But public education won't be withheld from a child.  No one should be forced to inject their body in order to protect someone else's body (you're pro-choice, right?), but if they want to, more power to them.  Your logic above about "catastrophes" is emotional, not scientific.[/quote]
