Could you provide the source for the supreme court agreement? It seems to me that forcing someone to get a vaccine would just as much violate their individual liberties so I'm rather curious what issue the supreme court was specifically addressing



Supreme court acceded to the question of vaccine mandates on the grounds of maintaining public safety and keeping order trumped the 1st amendment.

The background was a polio outbreak in MA around 1905, with something like a 30% mortality among all age groups.

We are back to 1905, but now its not 30% that is at the issue, but some decimal to the right of zero.


Thanks for the link!
