I have written about the rights involved in the considerations about masking and vaxxing.
That is ALL I have been writing about, although side issues have been mentioned.
I've been talking about "rights." That is all
There are issues aside from the right to say yes or no, and living with the consequences thereof.
Vaccines are a good thing. Even new experimental untested vaccines have a useful purpose. How else can they be tested? And is knowingly getting a vaccine that may not work, or even may make you ill. any worse than going about unprotected world where you may unknowingly catch the illness?
These are the decisions each individual makes for themselves. Do not make decisions without consideration of consequences. There are a few people, specifically men, who never had mumps, but refused the vaccine when it was developed because it was a 'kids' disease' and they were no longer children. They later came to regret that decision.
There are always consequences.
Do not say "No" to a life-saving treatment just because you have the right to say "No." Just because you can is the worst reason in the world to not adopt a behavior or take an action.
Do not consider just your self and your desires . Consider your situation and your lifestyle. Weigh your risks. What of your family, your friends, your co-workers? How could (not will) your decision on this matter affect them? How will (or could) your action or inaction impact them?
Try to imagine the extreme results from both or all choices, not just the ones you prefer.
Separate your "Rights" from their needs.
Decide what's best.
Let me reword that.
Make the best decision you can with the information available.
What you do is up to you.
What you do to others is not.
