The first of the crazy parents who went anti-vax benefitted greatly from Herd immunity. Now enough of them are not vaccinating that the herd immunity is basically non-existent. So we get things like measles outbreaks.
There are people who are medically incapable of getting vaccinated, like those with compromised immune systems (some might be in treatment for cancer)… And their best defense is if all of us, who can be immunized, are immunized.
Cancer treatments are not the only immunocompromising thing that can happen and not all immunocompromised people have cancer specifically… For the record.
Anyone who is anti-vax should be aware that they are actively and intentionally putting other people at risk and that should be strongly and thoroughly documented; so when they bring in a cold/flu/COVID/measles/whatever preventable disease to the school and someone else’s kid dies as a result the grieving family has the ability to sue them into poverty.
They deserve worse, but legally, I can’t condone that… But if someone wanted to take a page from a particular person named Luigi, I would be hard pressed to find a good reason to pursue any charges against them.
Because food is dangerous, we’ve taken steps to ban supermarkets which distribute food.
Only a select few strictly regulated supermarkets will be allowed to distribute food.
We know some communities may struggle with reduced or no access to food because of this decision. However we deem this imperative in order to have a strong and healthy country.
I stopped at a stop sign and somone almost rear-ended me. Had I driven through, I would have been safe. There is no reason to stop at stop signs. Other people can stop if they choose to, but the government can’t force me to risk a rear-ending in order to protect someone else. Jesus wouldn’t let me get T-boned in an intersection, I’m covered in his blood.
I mean, this level of Darwinism would be fine. What grates me is not recognizing the effect it has on others.
Still seeking an analogy where not eating food somehow puts a neighbor or classmate at risk of starvation.
Herd immunity is pretty important.

I feel like it’s very perpetrated by Americans, and Americans are very
