Strengthening families through biblical principles.
Focus on the Family addresses the use of biblical principles in parenting and marriage to strengthen the family.
Read daily articles from Focus on the Family in the Marriage and Parenting Resources forum.
Washington Post said:In the United States, it can cost hundreds of dollars per vial. In Canada, you can buy it without a prescription for a tenth of that price. So, Greenseid led a small caravan last month to the town of Fort Frances, Ontario, where she and five other Americans paid about $1,200 for drugs that would have cost them $12,000 in the United States.
Herd immunity.
Vaccines Today said:It arises when a high percentage of the population is protected through vaccination against a virus or bacteria, making it difficult for a disease to spread because there are so few susceptible people left to infect.
This can effectively stop the spread of disease in the community. It is particularly crucial for protecting people who cannot be vaccinated. These include children who are too young to be vaccinated, people with immune system problems, and those who are too ill to receive vaccines...
Herd immunity. Vaccinating people who are healthy enough to be vaccinated protects infants too young to be vaccinated. Otherwise infants and the elderly are vulnerable. A healthy adult might be able to fight off measles germs by themselves, but an infant could be in a situation if exposed to germs that the healthy adult is fighting off. The infant may not yet strong enough to fight measles germs by themselves.
For awhile, measles was almost extinct in the USA due to vaccines, thus protecting infants and the elderly. Now measles is making a comeback. Its similar for flu vaccines and such. Healthy adults at the peak of their strength can usually fight off the flu by themselves. Infants and many elderly can't. If a healthy adult gets the vaccine, he won't give the flu to an infant or elderly person who might have a time of it. A healthy person with a strong immune system getting a vaccine is an altruistic action that will help protect infants and elderly.
Some people for religious reasons dont want them or there kids to have it, that should be respected.
Nor are they forced to get vaccinated. They are just not allowed to endanger other children by enrolling in the public school system. Home schooling is allowed.
In the close packed public school environment, one sick child can quickly spread an epidemic to thousands.
The people who pay taxes and cannot send there child to school...
The Amish are exempt from property taxes in many venues, because they educate their own children. Property taxes paid by parents don't even come close to covering the cost of public schools. Much of the cost is paid for by those who don't have children. There are many people who don't have children who pay property taxes, and they don't want an epidemic to start in their city because of a few anti vaxxers who want to free load off of the childless taxpayers. Their opinion is generally let the anti vaxxers home school their own children, rather than put others needlessly at risk.
Anti vaxxing is not popular with the majority of taxpayers, who don't want an epidemic. People have a right to refuse vaccines, but they don't have a right to put others at risk.
Everything in life is a risk. Something could happen seems to always be the excuse.
Except that it is forbidden to risk your neighbor.
"'Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor's life. I am the LORD. Leviticus 19:16b NIV
If someone wants to forgo vaccines, that is their choice. They are forbidden from putting their neighbors at risk though.
