You personally are not likely to have been included in any decision like this, nor have I, that doesn't mean they aren't made. Do you know anyone who's passed legislation, or made any amendments to the constitution? I'm assuming that you do not, and yet amendments exist, legislation is passed. Would it be a stretch to say that you are advocating here that individual human beings should have ultimate say in something like public health policy?
(I also wanted to point out here, that when talking about vaccination, we're not talking about what someone chooses to do with their body, but more likely what they choose to do with their child's body. Are there not cases where we as a society trump the wishes of the parent in favor of the best interests of the child? How is this not one of those issues..at the very least?)
