They
do work, as the majority who does vaccinate will cover the minority who does not.
However, those who refuse to vaccinate beyond a medical reason and instead take an anti-vaxxer stance
increase the risk that
herd immunity cannot be guranteed any longer. See this for a visual representation:
So,
by not vaccinating, you are increasing the risk for others. I understand you are trying to rationalize common sense through the lens of God, but you can perfectly believe in God and still vaccinate. What you do, and not only on this topic, but other topics aswell, is taking
The Bible too literally and applying it to real life circumstances.
That by itself is a dangerous prospect, imo.
OT:
I think its rather
much to spend this amount of cash on what essentially is a matter of
principle regarding personal beliefs than a professional outing by a baker. The money spent could have been used for better promotion materials, to show what your bakery stands for. Instead of turing it into a positive thing, the Bakery chose to make it a negative one by going to court.
I do think vaccination should be mandatory, and precisely for the visual reason displayed above. You have an obligation to keep your kids safe. I know people from the Bible Belt (Its a place in the NL) who refused vaccination, claiming that if a child has to pass, its God's will.
Oddly enough these kids get infected with diseases that were rightly eradicated in our country, predominantly because of Herd Immunity.
Not vaccinating literally increases the risk that
everybody else can get infected.
So my question to you is:
Is it really worth risking the safety of your kids whilst simultaneously also increasing the risk that everyone else might be get affected by your decision? Is that a burden you would want to carry before the Grand Cross?
