I'm not so sure that a right to give me a cold is a good idea... Especially when there are options like outdoor air ventilation that reduce the spread of airborne viruses.
Maybe there should be some sort of liability for preventable spread of disease.
- sunshowers 3y agoThe issue here concerns criminal law. Liability is civil law. Whether institutions should be held liable for not putting things like ventilation in place is an interesting question, but irrelevant to interpersonal criminal law. And besides, the law turns the act from a felony to a misdemeanor. We are not even in the same ballpark as asserting some kind of "right" to give someone else a cold or HIV.
