Chris Christie has been vilified for making a very simple statement \u2013 that parents (and presumably patients themselves) should have the freedom to choose whether to vaccinate their children. I have been asked for years what I thought about vaccination, so let me lay out the issues.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Before getting into the science, lets discuss the philosophy:<\/p>\n<p>1. The voices shrieking to forcibly vaccinate people are the same voices shrieking to support a woman\u2019s right to choose abortion under Roe v. Wade. If a woman\u2019s body is sacrosanct, if she has the right to choose to deliver a child or not, if she has total authority over her body, how can she not have the right to accept or refuse a vaccination?<\/p>\n<p>2. Medical ethics are clear: No one should be forced to undergo a medical treatment without informed consent and without their agreement to the treatment. We condemn the forced sterilization of the \u201920s and \u201930s, the Tuskegee medical experiments infecting black inmates and the Nazi medicine that included involuntary \u201cEuthanasia,\u201d experimentation and sterilization. How can we force vaccination without consent? Vaccination is a medical treatment with risks including death. It is totally antithetical to all ethics in medicine to mandate that risk to others.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"><br \/>\nRead more at http:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2015\/02\/how-vaccine-hysteria-could-spark-totalitarian-nightmare\/#qrMtcraBoYTFAEA4.99<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How vaccine hysteria could spark totalitarian nightmare Gov.
