I'm looking more at the "Why does the government feel the need to go this far?" part of it. Another of the "hurt one to save a hundred" mentality, most likely. But this is going too far, for sure. As with most things, education is key. BTW, we may have eradicated many diseases, but there are "new" ones cropping up every day (see also: MRSA, kids with VD - wow, who says VD anymore?? showing my age...).

I also agree about safer vaccinations. However, I do believe in them myself...although we have not entirely eradicated diseases like polio and whooping cough, they have been almost unheard of in the USA for a long, long time...see this link: http://www.cloudnet.com/~edrbsass/poliotimeline.htm It is, however, scary and as Jon says, "the government is using police to force these people to do something when there is NO LAW to back it up." We need to keep an eye on this sort of thing in the future and voice our opinions about such tactics. I agree about the “no law to back it up” thing. I also agree about safer vaccinations.

No Law to back it up. No Law to back it up. And yet, here are the police. Here are the attack dogs. Where is the law?

More scary is the fact that "Big Pharma" isn't looking at ways to make the vaccinations safer to begin with, so that more parents will want to vaccinate. What happens when, eventually, everyone decides not to? What kind of diseases will our grandchildren and great-grandchildren face because pharmaceutical companies refuse to come up with safer vaccinations? That’s scary.
