If we had to start over on eradicating Smallpox today, we would be completely screwed. The only reason vaccine mandates are necessary is because people are apparently considerably more stupid than they were 70 years ago.
A vaccine mandate has about 80% support in Germany. OP is axe-grinding for a pretty small minority here.
I don’t know if people are generally any more stupid now. I think it’s just that our media elevates these uninformed voices and amplifies these stupid points of view, treating both sides as possibly right, when one is so obviously wrong.
> It was either forcefully vaccinated or forcefully infected by the unvaccinated. I’m thankful we’re making the right choice.
False dichotomy.
Also what if you are wrong? You seem very certain. Why? No meaningful discussion is allowed, so how is it that you feel you have all the information you need to make the decision -- first for yourself, and second, for every other person in your country? It seems like you are just thankful your fears about your neighbors have been tranquilized? Where did those fears come from again?
