As an individual who has strongly favored parents having the maximum freedom in dealing with their children, it is surprising that I take a strong stand in requiring vaccinations against certain diseases.
As a child I suffered from whooping cough, chicken pox, two kinds of measles, mumps, scarlet fever, colds and influenza, and probably pneumonia. During the summer I lived in dread of polio, which we knew as infantile paralysis. All of these diseases joined small pox as eliminated or reduced in severity through vaccinations.
Big, intrusive government is abhorrent to me, but I stand for enforcement of action that can guard us against horrible diseases.
