Get Vaccinated or Leave School: 26,000 N.Y. Children Face a Choice

As a future doctor I don’t even care if we mandate vaccinations, because informed consent and what not. But, if you don’t want to be vaccinated you should not be allowed to participate in any area of the general public, particularly any areas with a large population of children. Amusement parks, transportation, schools doesn’t matter. If you’re not willing to take on the risks every other parent has taken on because you believe you know better than people who have literally devoted their lives to keeping your children healthy, then you don’t get to participate in society in the same ways others do. You don’t get to have your cake and eat it too.
