(quote It's just downright selfish to put it on everyone else.)
So the argument has been lifted from the individual to society. The next logical step might be the species. There may be a strong argument against immunization for the sake of human kind. Are our immune systems still evolving? Will we need rely on technology to replace the improvements that were previously made by natural selection? If not, is the human race going to lose to a virus we can't defeat with medicine? Short term gains, and all that jazz.

They just do so in a manner that doesn't involve you dying before your immune system gets enough antibodies together.
