As the parent of a special needs child who has had reactions to vaccines, I'm against a forced mandate.  There must be a choice for those of us on the fringe who could be further injured. I'm surprised and disappointed in the political pressure from the democratic party who tout a platform of tolerance, being so intolerant and irrational. Vaccination is not the only answer, please let's explore better ways to work together in our communities for everyone's health and safety.
