This is a very tough subject to comment on, and maybe why no one has yet.
I do believe that some vaccines are very important (like polio), but I don't believe that we should vaccinate for others (like chicken pox). Know anyone that has had H1N1 yet? I bet you do and chances are they survived and found it just about the same as regular flu, so why vaccinate the whole population for it? Now, I do believe high risk people should be vaccinated, like my girlfriend's father who had a kidney transplant (because if he gets the flu it can be life threatening).
I feel for this person who cannot send their child to daycare because other children are not vaccinated, but I'm not sure it is a reason to push vaccinations on others.
Please don't flame me for this; I hope you see that I'm just hitting on this from both sides and do sympathize.

- chrisbroadfoot 17y agoI don't want to be a douche about cancer or anything, but maybe the reason no one has commented is because it's not really related to technology, startups or even business.
- ubernostrum 17y agoYou should probably come up with some reasoning to support your position aside from "lots of people survive the flu". Otherwise your "both sides" basically consists of a vaguely-worded opinion versus people who are verifiably alive because of vaccines but wouldn't be without them.
