This question was asked by the moderators on another BB. It is running approximately 60/40 in favor of mandatory vaccination for nurses in direct patient care. That is the only question and no opportunity for discussion was available.
In light of what I see as so many cons, I was surprised that so many people are for it. I posted a request for reasons why a person voted as they did, but got few responses. I can't help but wonder if it is a knee-jerk reaction to fear or ignorance that caused those in favor of it to vote this way.
Therefore, while I am interested in all responses, I am especially interested to hear some reasons why you would vote for this vaccination. I am especially interested, because these reasons may be why I am eventually forced to accept a vaccine I don't want. So enlighten me please!
I think that if there were a threat, a confirmed outbreak, then I would want it. In fact, I believe I heard somewhere that health care workers would be the first ones to get it.
I read your links, and see that my gut reaction was in error. Okay, I vote "no" (too late to change though huh?). I also want to know, is that scar on my right arm from this? I know it was from some immunization....

But right now, today? Nope.
