> Not really. If you disagree, I dare you to burn your vaccination card and see how life is for you over the coming months.

New York state, in its infinite wisdom, has electronic vaccine records. There's even a blockchain involved, for some reason.

I shared my vaccine records with my elementary school, middle school, high school, and college before attending each. If I had burned those records, they would have made me get vaccinated again. But that doesn't make me "oppressed," it makes me a fool who burned my vaccine records.

Oblique comparisons to the Holocaust are as ridiculous and offensive as direct ones.




I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and presume you’re deliberately trying to not understand here.


> they would have made me get vaccinated again

Doubt.


> Doubt.

I was required to get a DTaP vaccine in college (in another state, mind you) because I couldn't prove that I had gotten one as an adolescent. I had gotten one, but I'd lost the record.


Ahh I see so you were required in college, but not in high school and under.


No, you’ve misunderstood: I lost the records between high school. I have multiple friends who were required to get their MMR vaccines again in high school because they couldn’t find their records.
