Question
Should vaccines be mandatory?
Position‹2 of 2

No, vaccines should not be mandatory

Vaccine mandates impose on basic human rights. Freedom of choice should extend to whether or not people choose to vaccinate themselves and their kids. Government mandates may perpetuate the dangers of vaccines that are often ignored.

Supporting arguments · 3

  1. There is evidence that vaccines are not safe
    There exist far too many vaccine horror stories to be ignored. There is a lot of anecdotal evidence that shows that vaccines have been extremely detrimental to the health of those who were healthy before vaccination.
  2. Governments and pharmaceutical companies cannot be trusted
    Many people do not trust the government and pharmaceutical companies to bring us safe and effective vaccines- and rightly so. Politicians and Big Pharma often do not have the best interest of the public in mind.
  3. Mandates impose on freedom of choice
    Vaccination should be an individual choice. In many cases, vaccination is against the religious values or morals of those who do not want to be vaccinated. The government does not have the right to impose in this manner.
