No one was forcibly vaccinated. The use of incentives and disincentives to encourage vaccination can certainly be debated, but no had a vaccine forced into their body against their will.
Plenty of people are still not vaccinated by choice.
- michaelrpeskin 4y agoYes. See my reply to the sibling comment for my less snippy clarification.
- 6nf 4y ago> No one was forcibly vaccinated. This is not quite correct. Some people were vaccinated against their will. Some old folks homes in the EU vaccinated residents even if they did not consent, for example.
- nkrisc 4y agoEverything I’ve said is about the US in particular. What you described would almost certainly be illegal in the US, unless the care home had power of attorney over the residents in question.
- raxxorraxor 4y agoAn employer forcing employees to be vaccinated is nothing else as people may be dependent on the income. This is not an argument against abortion, it is an argument against "my body my choice" line. In the vaccination case that would be true but the discussion around abortion is the premise that there are two competing interests which the argument neglects.
- nkrisc 4y agoI don’t think the argument neglects so I’ll say it more clearly: the rights of the mother trump those of the fetus when it comes to her body.
