The Australian Government Immunisation Handbook states "vaccines must be given voluntarily in the absence of undue pressure, coercion or manipulation".
Is the ultimatum to get the shot or be stood down not pressure? Is it not coercion when you are told you won't be able to fly, work or go to school if you refuse an injection? Is rushing people into procedure without giving them time to make an informed decision not manipulation?
Where there is risk, there must be choice.
Instead of ridiculing people decision's, try to understand their concerns. Listen to the people who have endured their own personal heartaches from adverse reactions caused by vaccines because their voices matter and so does our right to choose.
