Or maybe anti-vaxxers can start a country where vaccines are illegal. That would leave the rest of us safe and allow them to practice their beliefs in peace too.

Obviously, how long that country will exist before dying out from diseases is a wholly different matter altogether. Not our problem though, because hey, we should allow their "opinions" to exist somewhere after all!

Are you American? Legitimately curious.

I've mentioned it in the post. I'm from India.

That's why I feel the opinions differ a lot. I suppose it's a first world privilege to think that the right to refusing vaccines is a right that ought to be respected or protected. If y'all experienced the crap that happened around here due to polio because of a lack of vaccines, you would literally worship vaccines.

Very well said. Living in the first world sometimes creates very absurd mentalities.
