Well, a current vaccine does exist. If someone does not want to take it, their problem.
Whether they commit suicide by not vaccinating or drinking raw milk does not matter.
It would definitely help if it was free, if you're homeless or just don't have insurance for whatever reason, is it really fair that you're expected to pay for vaccinations?

A lot of people like I talked about, don't have $200 lying around, really a state failure, not insuring anyone who wants it can actually get it.
Both of you are correct, and it’s because we can’t fix stupid: those who can but refuse to participate in public health, and those responsible for public health. Unfortunately, even if the latter shaped up and got an affordable vaccination program, the former still exist.
