@nodi1217 Here's the difference, dumb dumb ...
A vaccine isn't simply personal protection. Vaccines work even better when more people have them. If you look at a chain of contact, with the 50% efficacy flu vaccine ... If you're a flu carrier, and I have the vaccine, I'm 50% protected. If, however, I come in contact with another vaccinated person, who came in contact with you, I'm 75% protected. If there was another vaccinated person in the chain, I'd be 87.5% protected. Another, and I'd be 93.75% protected. Etc. So, when it comes to vaccinations, you are making a decision that can affect others' health.
On the other hand, we all agree that a mindless (brain dead) meat sack of living cells, requiring life support, is no longer actually "alive". We pull plugs every day. Nobody forces people to keep their brain dead loved ones on life support, and force them to pay for it. But, the moronic "pro-life" crowd considers a mindless meat sack of living cells, requiring a woman's life support system, to actually be "alive". It doesn't even begin to develop the parts needed for consciousness, until 25-28 weeks. It's not yet "alive", and it should be totally up to the woman, if she wants to act as a life support system, because there's not another actual living being affected.
