my most lukewarm take is that I don't think there should be any exemptions for vaccines, etc., beyond documented legit adverse medical shit that makes it physically impossible. like they should be free and required and nobody should be allowed to just choose to leave their child and any immunocompromised person they interact with vulnerable to potentially deadly but entirely preventable diseases and other medical conditions.
like scientists have spent sooooo many decades doing science to make sure that your kid (and everyone else protected by herd immunity in many vaccine cases) does not get very sick and/or die of terrible diseases or hemorrhages that, for a very, very long time, killed so many fucking people. and yet parents who get all their health info from supplement peddlers and conspiracy theorists on instagram reels think they know more than doctors and scientists with expert knowledge are allowed to decide they just want to expose their kids and any immunocompromised people around them to this shit instead of getting a shot??? I do not think that should be a thing you are allowed to do.
