Fair, then they don't have a right to be vaccinated or not (at least in the US). And it's false to say we "support their right." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik

- ghaff 5y agoAll you can say is that Jacobson established that a state can require vaccination with non-compliance subject to a fine. Given that the case involved police power and its limitations, you probably can't assume that a case of forcible vaccination would be covered by this precedent. Zucht v. King subsequently upheld a rule requiring students to be vaccinated to attend school, which IANAL is probably the more relevant case law for businesses and others requiring vaccination in order to enter a building or attend an event.
